It launched at $20. It was cult from the start.I'm curious if this was the same reception the game got back in 2004.

Awesome! I'm looking forward to it.
Edit: perfect timing for my reply, lol. I'll send a request when I'm home from work.
Edit2: Nvm, didn't know it was so easy to do from the phone lol. Request sent!
This is awesome. Love it when developers add rewards to achievements and trophies.
Not sure this will have AA on either the XBO or Scorpio. I thought this was just a straight port with no real enhancements.
Hmmmm... I've watched this twice now and I still don't hear where you're getting this. Timestamp?
I see Adam saying that the textures are the originals, you just couldn't see what they looked like on the original Xbox. Also effects are turned on from the original and converted to modern equivalents on modern DX.
Here ya go, fam. He mentions they're using uncompressed source assets for a lot of the game, like the textures.
Ah ok, thanks. I stand corrected.
Did I miss the AA/AF that the original person I was responding to claimed as well?
Got your request, sent the invite.
I'm not sure if there's something you have to accept on your end.

It's very fun. Great story too.What a weird looking game.
I thought people said it was supposed to be some kind of card game?
Well either way looks like the opposite of fun.
Look if you guys are so concerned of negative posts, message a mod to change the title of the thread.
As long as it says Remastered people will come in here expecting better looking footage than this. Hell even Polygon has changed the title of the youtube video to 'HD Re-release' for a reason.
Furthermore it's a problem for me that while they are keeping the textures, model quality as it is, they are planning to still add paid DLC and save card data clientside, which shows they want this game to have legs. Why can't they at least update the IQ too then?
What are the chances we get the a PD character in Killer Instect as a guest character?

Let me clear the air a bit. I'm Adam Isgreen (mods feel free to verify), the guy talking in the interview.
My bad for not correcting Nick immediately on remaster vs. re-release. We had a fire drill go off during the interview (random, yes), and that certainly disrupted the flow of the conversation, as we picked up in the middle after I could get back in the building.
My personal story on PD is that I missed it on the original Xbox. I'm pretty ashamed of that since I adore all of Futatsugi-san's games, have all of the Panzers in both Japanese and English, including Saga (SEGA GIVE IT TO CODE MYSTICS!), and I somehow missed this game.
I first played it after hearing Phil mention that he constantly gets asked about it by press / fans on Twitter. Grabbed it on 360 BC. After the first hour I thought "what is all the fuss about?". It starts slow and doesn't pick up until you get past Chapter 2 and can build arsenals (decks), which can be a good two hours into the game. Once that happens in campaign, and when you start to play multiplayer, this light goes on and you realize how deep and amazing this game is at its heart. 13 years and there's no perfect deck to the game. Stick skill and deck planning are equally as important. Teamwork is insanely rewarding. There's a skill that does anything you can possibly imagine you could do in arena-based combat.
Consider me converted. I get it now. More people need to grok this game. I'm part of the cult, and that's OK, because it's a great cult to be in.
So you admit you're nitpicking someone misspeaking (a verbal typo)?yes, later. I am talking about the intro
It's a card game behind the auspice of being an Akira-inspired arena fighter.What a weird looking game.

See Grabbed by the Ghoulies.What could they do with old games from that era that they do have access to the source codes?

please watch the video
I still don't understand the purpose of this or the voodoo vince remaster, considering the other XBOX classics people have actually asked for.
See Grabbed by the Ghoulies.
Also how if the source code missing for so many games?
Looks worse than it did on the OG Xbox. Would've preferred if they just ported that version with chump change and HD upgrade. Hopefully more people play and pay the micro transaction so we can get a proper Phantom Dust 2 sequel.

Even as short of a distance in the past as 2004, we didn't have the standards and ease of accessibility for mass storage as we do today. A lot of companies just didn't keep a whole lot of the development assets for games, including the source code, and some of them may yet be buried somewhere in an old tape drum.See Grabbed by the Ghoulies.

Ignoring Jade Empire, sure.Well, for starters, Phantom Dust is pretty much the best game on the original Xbox
Ignoring Jade Empire, sure.
Not really a leak when MS Creative Director posted it to TwitterThis leak get posted?

Or Halo..
Neither were exclusive. (Or better)Ignoring Jade Empire, sure.
I don't think you get this at all lolAgain: the bar doesn't magically lower when you use a different name.
The shitposting in this thread is embarrassing. This is a game from 2004, what did you expect?
It's a toss up between this and JSRF for me... but since JSR1 is better, PD narrowly wins.For OG Xbox would prefer Conker Reloaded or Crinson Skies. Had alot of fun in the OG Days

Even if MS or the devs called it a Remaster, I would still think that's a fair label considering the results. It sounds like you and others are wanting a remake, which is different than a remaster. Models aren't typically redone in remasters.
Or Halo..
Some of the posts in here are downright embarrassing. Its a freaking achievement that this even exists on a modern platform
I'll still buy it. But as far as a "Remaster" goes. This is pretty barebones and disappointing. That term has become a giant misnomer.
