stealthwarrior00 Posted November 28, 2000 Share Posted November 28, 2000 I was wondering- does anybody know if Westwood is making Dune Emperor also for the Playstation 2? If so, that would be great, but only if they avoid such a quality of graphics that exists with Dune 2000 on the PSX- the graphics were way terrible, and could have been a lot better; in other words, a near-direct port (at least graphically) would be appreciated.

niels Posted November 30, 2000 Share Posted November 30, 2000 I doubt a playstation is fast enough for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exatreide Posted November 30, 2000 Share Posted November 30, 2000 The old playstation yes the new one no. The dreamcast and Ps-2 can handel it ,but not the 64. I hope they don't make it look to 3d like they did in dune2k. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tabaqui of Gidur-log Posted November 30, 2000 Share Posted November 30, 2000 I dont think that it would be a good idea to put a game like this onto a console, because of its comlexity you would need a lot of buttons to operate your units, which a consoledoesn't have.

exatreide Posted December 1, 2000 Share Posted December 1, 2000 Well dreamcast can go online. and it has a mouse and a keybored. imagin playing dune on your tv. with a keybored and mouse. With a standerd controler theres to many buttens but with a keybored and mouse you might pull it off. And woulden't online play be cool.

stealthwarrior00 Posted December 1, 2000 Author Share Posted December 1, 2000 I agree about the 3D thing- Dune2k on the PSX was horrible in graphics. Yet, with the graphics capability of a PS2, it has a LOT better chance than its predecessor. As for it on the Dreamcast, it may work on it too, and has a better chance of being made, since it's kind of hard to program stuff for the PS2, from what I've heard. I think a PS2 may have more capability to fulfill such a quality of brilliant graphics, though, but to have a console version for either system would be great, if it avoids the same fate of Dune2k for the PSX.

Gobalopper Posted December 1, 2000 Share Posted December 1, 2000 It may be released for the Playstation 2 but it's not likely to show up for the Dreamcast, I have heard that Westwood/EA won't be making very many games for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exatreide Posted December 1, 2000 Share Posted December 1, 2000 What do you mean? The dreamcast is the seconed most powerful system out there plus with online suport. And its not as dificult to wright games for unlike the PS-2. and dose the PS-2 have online suport noooooo. and don't do that popularity carp either. Ijust visited Videogames.com and under system wars you can vote for the system that you think is the best. here are the resultesDreamcast 55%PS-2 25%nintedo 8%but its not done yet. but as you can see the dreamcast is in the lead.

Gobalopper Posted December 1, 2000 Share Posted December 1, 2000 I mean a guy from EA came to our University to talk about gaming and metioned they wouldn't be making too many games for the Dreamcast but instead focusing more on the Playstation 2. I don't really know that much about the differences between the two, that's just what he said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Fryem Posted December 1, 2000 Share Posted December 1, 2000 Keep in mind that the interface isn't all to friendly in RTSs for consoles... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benfurness Posted December 20, 2000 Share Posted December 20, 2000 Sorry did'nt notice this posting before I asked the same thing.Dreamcast maybe but multiplayer via the net no way, it's too crap and slow for such a thingPs2 it can be done, programming problems?, not any more besides they all said the same thing about the psx and look what happened.As for PS2 net multiplayer no-one knows about the capabilites of the modem so can't say much untill sony say more.The control interface was workable on the Dune2000 psx version but will definatley need work for any future games.By the way anyone found out about x-box versions, after all the console isn't out yet which gives developers more time to get used to the console without (hopefully) releasing shitty games.

mushman29 Posted April 17, 2002 Share Posted April 17, 2002 Noooooooooooooooooooooo! I rely on having my PC to get all the newest Westwood/C&C/(new)Dune games, if they put them on PS2 I will have to buy one. More people have a PC than PS2/XBox and so they should stick to PC releases until, as mentionerd earlier, they see if other PC to XBox conversions are crap or not. :P PS What would they do if they developed the XBox version of Emperor and then the XBox was as big a flop as the Dreamcast?
