rogue squadron on xbox?

[The Rocketman]

I read a looong time ago that factor 5 were going to release their 2 latest rogue squadron games as 1 package for xbox... But there's no info, anywhere... Anyway, I've got a gamecube now, so it doesn't really matter for me anymore, but are the games worth it? Is the coop fun?

I would definately buy them if they came to the Xbox.  The one package idea sounds stellar.  Where'd you hear about that?

I don't recall exactly, but I think there's a tidbit of information about them on gamespot or gamespy or something... let me see if I can get a link...

[The Rocketman]

Yeah, I found a link:

And apparently it comes out when the original movie trilogy is released on dvd... Still, it's awfully quiet about the game... You'd think they'd devote a website to it at least...

Thanks Rocketman.  Like you said it has been very quiet.  All the reports I could find date back to October of last year, like the one you linked to.  I guess we can hope for the best.  No hype yet is a bit of a surprise.

So I caved and bought used copies of both Rogue Squadron 2: Rogue Leader and Crimson Skies.

I like Crimson Skies the best so far, because I just can't seem to get the controls for Rogue Squadron down... I never see any TIEs (my tv's too small), I get disoriented, radar seems useless so far, and there's no 'flying' feel to the game.

But I'm sure I'll get better with it, and grow to like it... This game is too pretty to have shallow gameplay I hope

Don't look for them to be on the Xbox anytime soon. Look at that linked article, it's from october of last year. For the most part it was a rumor on Xbox IGN and it's since been considered Dead.
