I'm excited about this game. Going to wait to preorder though until I see the achievement list. I have a feeling there's going to be a lot of online achievements and if that's the case, I wont be buying. |

Chronicles of Riddick was a sweet game, but remember - THIS GAME IS BEING MADE BY ATARI. Theyre on my blacklist since they produce nothing but garbage. |

I though it was coming out at the end of March ... Oh well, I'm happy to wait for this game ... I Loved Butcher Bay and hope Dark Athena is just as good. |

this has the potential to be a very good game in terms of both value for money and gameplay. You're getting 2 games in one and multiplayer should be good. |

Hm, I might borrow it from a friend. Definitely not a buy. I just added a new game to buy with the announcement of Lost Planet 2. |

@ #10-
Atari (who should really be dead now) picked up the game after Activision Blizzard (quickly becoming the new EA) dropped it. (I hate Bobby Kotick). Starbreeze and Tigon are still the devs |

I love how that's been the release date since at least Jan 25, back when I reserved it, and yet this news post is acting like it hasn't been. |

Great more multiplayer i can only imagine creative they got with these ones, won't be too bad if its co-op. But verus kinda seems like its gonna be a mix of splinter cell and turok..? thats my assumption anyway. |

Does EVERY game have to have multiplayer? I enjoy some multiplayer games, but only a few have a robust community.
Some achievements in many games are impossible to earn because no one is online. |

Huh, I've heard many good things about the original, can't say I played it though. Maybe if the demo strikes my fancy I'll look into it. |

The original for Xbox and PC was one of the best movie games ever made. Anyone that has played through Escape from Butcher Bay knows what I'm talking about.
Truth be told, the game is not very long. But it's going to be really sweet to see the whole game redone, you honestly cannot expect much because the game itself [Escape from Butcher Bay] can pretty much hold a candle to A LOT of Xbox 360 and PS3 games today, even in terms of graphics!
I'm pretty stoked to say the least. |

Finally, I've been waiting for a release date for over a year.
This is going to be great, same great original xbox game with updated graphics, as well as a new, awesome full length campaign and multiplayer.
I seriously can't wait for this. |

Sorry Star Ocean but because Square-Enix seems to suck (as compared to the Squaresoft of Lore) and Starbreeze does amazing work. Atari is just publishing it, not making it there's a big difference. #34 has a good point, in terms of graphics, Escape From Butcher Bay had graphics on par one the original xbox with most average 360 games. |

I think we can kiss any chance of backwards compatibility with the original xbox version goodbye. |
