Games you want on your consoles.

[starocean13]

Before I even get started I am not bashing on the PS3 or PC. I have played games on both of them and I like them but I just have a Laptop to play PC games and my 360. So my question here is this, are there any games that are exclusives to one console that you would like to see ported to the console that you have? Sense I only really have a 360 there are several PS3 games that I would like on the XBOX, just cause I don't have a PS3 myself. God of War, Little Big Planet, the Kingdom Hearts games like they did when they re-released the first 2 God of War games awhile back. So what games would you like to see ported? Either cause you're like me and only have the one console or maybe just cause you think that your favorite console could pull it off better.

I would like to play God of War, the Uncharted games and Heavy Rain on the 360, that's all I can really think of. Though, i'm not gonna go out and buy a PS3 for those 4 games, seems like a waste of money.

 

[Mariakitten]

I would like to see Halo: Reach on the PS3, other than that though I'm pretty much set.

 

[MindBullets]

I want a Zelda game and a Metroid FPS on the 360. They are the 2 franchises I miss most after switching from Wii to 360. Damn motion controls...

 

[starocean13]

That's my problem. All my friends have every console and maybe have 3 or 4 games tops for each and never really use them. I just can't see the point in blowing hundreds of dollars just to have an expensive electronic paper waight that your not going to use again.

 

[Simple Bluff]

Infamous 2 on the xbox would be a nice treat.

 

[Matthew Wilson]

Mass Effect 1 on PS3.
Seems stupid to give us 2 but not 1.

 

[onewheeled]

I'd really like to see Metal Gear Solid 4 on the 360, because I'd really like to try that series out and be able to play all the way through it. But that would never, ever happen.

Heavy Rain, Infamous and Littlebig Planet on the 360. That way I could sell my PS3, since I barely use it for anything else.

I'd say put the handful of good PSP games (read: not the piles of stupid Final Fantasy spinoffs, stuff that's actually worth playing) on any of the other platforms. I just can't see what so many devlopers were thinking with this "let's put PS1 and PS2 style games that rely on having both sticks for the controls to not suck on a system with one analog stick". Stuff like the two Metal Gear Solid games, the GTA games, and so on (although some did get ported to PS2). Get them on a system with the proper controls already.

The only thing that really seems to work on the PSP's controls aside from the piles of Square Enix games that I'd rather do anything else in the world than play them seems to be simple platformers and puzzle games. The Mega Man X and Mega Man remakes both work well, LittleBigPlanet worked well for playing (not so great when it came to creating though), and of course it's hard to ruin even the most basic puzzle game. You'd have to have no buttons at all to do that (sup Steve Jobs?).

Infamous 2 on the xbox would be a nice treat.

No thanks, let Sony keep that rubbish. The 360 has piles of infinitely better third person shooters. In fact, so does the PS3. I'm sure even the Wii does. There's really no justification for inFamous 2 to exist at all. inFamous 1 was an awful third person shooter in a generation full of great third person shooters.

What would be the harm? A bad game is very easily ignored, you know.

 

[-Seraph-]

As much as I love Dissidia and want to keep it all for myself, an HD console version with full online play would be teh sex. Damn thing would sell like mad on the xbox or PS3, and the amount of extra stuff they could put on it would be epic.

I also want a damn PC version of Blazblue (a legit version) and I wouldn't mind Halo Reach for the PC.

 

[Treblaine]

Assuming you said platform rather than console:

Red Dead Redemption on PC

From what I have heard about the game, it would control a heck of a lot better with keyboard and mouse, particularly the galloping and looking around and aiming and shooting all at the same time. Also GTA4 (once tweaked) was so good on PC, Rockstar has shown to create these fantastic naturalistic worlds I just love to look around them with mouse look rather than analogue stick.


Flight Control HD on PC

Again, nice little casual fun game I'd like to play with a mouse rather than touchscreen, I have developed a taste for it on iPad as on display in shops but not like it enough to shell out £420 for the media-tablet. It Just came out on PS3 with Move controls, that I guess is a decent compromise which I'll go for if it is clear there will never be a plain old PC release with mouse support.

Original Tomb Raider series on PSP

The Canucks, Yanks and Mehicans may be surprised by this but the Tomb Raider series has not been entirely released in Europe so no Tomb Raiding on the commute with my PSP. Just got Tomb Raider 1 recently, but I've played that the death, I was hoping for 2, 3 or 5, the games I missed or only played parts of in my childhood.

Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker on PS3

Yes, I know I just said I have a PSP but while Tomb Raider and other PS1 games is an ideal game for PSP, a game like Peace Walker is not. Far too deep, engrossing and complex to control, I want to play this on a big high resolution screen (and possibly sharpened up polygons) with a proper dual analogue gamepad.

Straight port of Goldeneye 64 to XBLA or Nintendo DS

Yes. Not a bloody remake with Daniel 'Face like a bag of spanners' Craig replacing the great Pierce Brosnan. It's like remaking Thunderball and replacing Sean Connery. In fact they did remake Thunderball 20 years after (Never say Never Again) and they brought back The Sean.
No I love Goldeneye 007 for it's simplicity, it's clunkyness, but most of all its FEEL! That music, those midi sound effects. It's just my N64 is long gone and replacements plus cartridges cost an arm and a leg now.

Killzone HD Re-Release on PS3

HD re-releases are all the rage for Sony today and I can't think of a better example. Killzone was a great game had it not over-extended, it was far too advanced for the PS2 hardware crippled by such limited draw distance and insufferable frame-rate. A HD-re-release would solve all of these problems (so would a PC port but it's a first party game so no dice) and also work as great double promotion for Killzone 3. It could easily run 1080p and 30 fps or 720p and 60fps (probably overkill) but 720p and locked 30fps would be perfect and really give this almost-a-classic a 2nd chance.

Other than you presumably merely owning a 360 and not a PS3 (hence have access to play those games now) how would it be good to have those games on Xbox 360?

I used to take the attitude with Wii "Aww this ONE GOOD GAME on Wii, I wish it was on 360 or PS3" and I'd hear other people say it and agree, only I'd be saying it all the time. Wasn't till I realised there were actually loads of "one-good-games"s on the wii. I'm now saving up to get one. Consider if you might be taking the same attitude with PS3 as I took with Wii...

A lot of the games I wanted from Wii on HD consoles would never happen, 1st party exclusives like Super Mario Galaxy and Super Smash Bros Brawl would always be Wii exclusive.

I'd really like to see Metal Gear Solid 4 on the 360, because I'd really like to try that series out and be able to play all the way through it. But that would never, ever happen.

It's not THAT impossible. MGS1 saw a PC release, MGS2 on Xbox + PC in addition to PS2. The only reason MGS3 stayed PS2 exclusive was the Ape-Escape minigame that is a Sony licence, and they wouldn't let any part of their licence on competing systems (nor vica verca with microsoft).

MGS4 COULD have gone to Xbox 360, no licensing restrictions, only the gulf in hardware between PS3 and 360 is too great mainly down to the Blu-ray media leading to massive game data bloat and that Kojima created a proprietary engine for PS3 with no idea of porting in mind meaning a technical nightmare of any 360 port. Plus there was limited demand for it on 360, a lot of expense for little return.

I don't see how the game would benefit from going multi-platform. Consoles are cheap now, just get a PS3 to go alongside your 360. MGS4 isn't the only great game on PS3.

I think that is fair enough, I don't own a console and I like games.

Red Dead Redemption on PC

Spoiler: pic in spoiler

From what I have heard about the game, it would control a heck of a lot better with keyboard and mouse, particularly the galloping and looking around and aiming and shooting all at the same time. Also GTA4 (once tweaked) was so good on PC, Rockstar has shown to create these fantastic naturalistic worlds I just love to look around them with mouse look rather than analogue stick.

Yes, this for me also, as long as people realize it is the same engine as GTAIV (forewarned is forearmed) and we don't have to sign up for a bunch of shit I'll never use (like I did with GTAIV) this would be a guaranteed smash hit on PC.

 

[Flapjack Ninja]

Resident Evil 4 on 360. Games on demand can do it, surely? Hell, I'd pay for the standalone game if it came. Do Sony and Ninteno have the rights to it or something?

Metal Gear Solid 4 on 360. I am buying a PS3 at Xmas just for that game.

Not too much else... Some of the older Final Fantasies would be sweet. I never got to play eight and nine.

 

[Ultress]

I would love to see Demon Souls and the PS3 versions of Eternal Sonata ans Tales of Veperia on the 360.

 

[Savagezion]

Mass Effect 1 on PS3.
Seems stupid to give us 2 but not 1.

So we are definatley not getting 1?

Mixed feelings really for me on that. I have 1 on PC although havent got 2 yet. I probably won't buy ME2 for PS3 now. I was hoping it would be a bundle of both games. I may if they ever release 1 on PS3. I don't mind buying a copy on PS3 and PC of each.

 

[Daffy F]

Smash Bros. on xbox360. I love Smash brothers, but not enough to get a Wii...

 

[Instant K4rma]

Heavy Rain on the 360 would be incredible. I played the demo at a friends house and have wanted to play that game in it's entirety ever since.
