ERMYGERD!
Steel Batallion 2, bundled with Natal. Instead of pressing the right buttons in time and sequence, you'll also have to guess where the hell those buttons are! ZOMG!

Please, don't do this to me. Can you imagine a current gen Panzer Dragoon game? I can and it makes me cry.

I am thinking 4 co-op game with dragoon breeding/training, ground and air combat + MP options...

Hard to tell oif people are joking or not. He said "return", so obviously it's not a PC or PS3 title.
He said a gaming classic is returning, it implies there hasn't been a game in the series this generation at all.

Is Hydro Thunder a ''Substantial Franchise''?
To me it is. Then again, I did ask Vector Unit about bringing back San Francisco Rush 2049, and they told me that they loved that game...

That's what I've been saying!


Even though Astrolad was the wrong person to quote (his comments were tongue in cheek).
Yeah, I broke a long-standing rule I have to never quote him.

I don't know why people are suggesting niche titles or outright failures--to me "substantial" means something along the lines of a Mario or Sonic, or in the sports realm Madden.

And to me "substantial" means it's not exactly a blockbuster.

Counterstrike was exclusive to the Xbox, so it makes sense in terms of a substantial franchise returning to the Xbox 360.


If it is Counterstrike I hope they bundle Day of Defeat with it.

Other wild guesses to accompany my Oddworld idea: Timesplitters or, as someone said, SW Battlefront. Get it together, Crytek!

Just wondering. From the OP

Official Xbox Editor Jon Hicks has told CVG that the mag will next month reveal the return of a "substantial franchise" - as an Xbox exclusive.

So are we talking about a "substantial franchise" that was on another format and is now going to be a 360 exclusive? Or just an older Xbox game that is coming back?

Are we also saying "substantial franchise" means is previously sold loads or that there are a few games already out that make up that franchise?


Damn you announcements of announcements. :lol


I am going for Onimusha. :D

I'm thinking about Strider.

I though someone from Capcom namedropped Strider in the context of things that might work well with Natal, or maybe I'm going bonkers. Can't find the link right now but I'm nearly certain there was such an interview.

Except they would lose all credibility if they built something up like that and then it turned out to be a dud. So no.
