I'm looking forward to it.

Me too. Pity it not for Pc... all I have is PC and a reg X-Box

Well I have the Wii (got it for free XD, that's why I call mine Wii-it's-Frii!) anywho, I'd rather like it to be ported over to the PC. If that's the case, hopefully it'll be customizable. Come one, those guys at Raven/Activision/Vicarious should give us some props for making all this stuff... Not only props, but also non-hardcoded files which can change the char limit and every other thing that helps us XD.

I received this same e-mail.

I have a Wii and my brother has a 360, though I'd just be happy if MUA2 stuff is backwards compatible. I imagine it will be as it's going to be released on the PS2 at least. We may very well have access to new skeletons, skins, effects, sounds. It makes me feel all giddy inside XD

[Teancum]

I dunno, I'd bet they're using a much newer version of Alchemy.  They're constantly bragging how the basically rebuilt the engine for this game.

[Dihan]

Maybe for the current gen consoles, but they may be lazy with the past gen - focus all their time on the new and just use the old for the old. There is a significant difference in how powerful the PS2 is compared to, say, the 360.

[Teancum]

Cross your fingers

If they do use an older version I might try porting it to the Xbox, but I doubt it'll port back that far.  They'll probably use the version they used on the PSP/Wii (3.5) which will work on the PC (a sort-of 4.0 version) but the Xbox is only v3.0, so I'll be stuck.

[nodoubt_jr]

i hope so, because the only reason im not freaking out about it not comming out for pc is that we maybe able to use a lot of the stuff from those other versions.

[BLaw]

If it does come out for PC and it's customizable, scream at me so I can start skinning MUA2 skins XD

[piutebob]

Will do =)
