MP on other platforms

[swh]

Has anyone any idea if we can expect MP 2 on other platforms.
The new Nokia/Sega N-Gage has Splintercell and Tombraider, so imo it should be possible to run MP also on that thing.

Have you seen what they look like on the Nokia N-Gage (Sega doesn't have anything to do with it, except for making a few games). Besides, how the hell would you play a fast paced shooter on that thing?

Everything that makes max payne entertaining would be lost in some cheap cellphone game.

As for consoles XBox and PS2 were the only ones that could run MP1, so for MP2 XBox is probably the only one that could run it, and it would have to have the graphics toned down.

It doesn't matter if PS2 can run the game or not, MP2 will still come out on it because of the huge user base.

Hardly huge, if you compare to the amount of PS2s around. And Xbox won't be able to "run it great", it'll be a stripped down version on both consoles.

-_-' They will buy it for whatever system they have. For most people, it's a PS2.

There was a huge installed user base of PS1s, PS2 had backwards compatibility, so people who owned PS1s could just trade in their old machine and get a new one that would still play the same games. Though Xbox might have gotten a million sold units closer to PS2, it still wouldn't have had a chance.

^So? That still doesn't make Xbox have the power a PC even with MP2's minimum specs has.

And isn't Rockstar handling the console ports?
