Dear friends,
i love the subsim, my last is DW and i write this mess for to know what do you think about the possibilities that these amazing sub simulations could be available for xbox 360....i don t like games for childrens and i can to say you that with the xbox they exist many complicates simul already, like "air combat 6" an air sim that have to be ready very soon:maybe a lot of people don t know very well the possibilities of this machine: they are great.
THe problem for most of simul people is the Keybord:
one time i couldn't to think to change my keyboard for a joypad but now its different. I have a xbox and im sure that it s not more a problem....
Thank for your attention,
sorry for my english,

ciao from Italia,

Hondero

the problem with putting a sub sim on a console is that a majority of console players wouldn't have the patience to wait to get into a good position etc...and would rather be commiting mindless slaughter on the lastest FPS game. Strategy and sim's are best left to the PC IMHO.

Ace Combat 6 is not a simulation.

It was a good try though.

My last post was kind of snippy, I'm sorry

In considering translating a serious hardcore simulation like DW or SH3/4 to a console, you must ask: will it make money? When you think about the highest grossing console games these days - the Maddens, the Halos, etc - it seems like a pretty risky venture to make an entrance into the arena with a subsim. And if it isn't promised to have a high return, nobody will finance the development.
