KOTOR III

Started by Darth Bacardi140 pages

There is a technical reason that they WONT make K3 for the xbox and the 360.

If you look on the back of the box for a reg. xbox game, you will see a graphics rating, which is 540i.
Look in the same place on the 360 box and you'll see 1080i.
When you take a game designed for the xbox and the 360 you suffer in the graphics department.

Take Blitz: The League for example. I personally own this game for the regular xbox. however they made it for 360 as well. The game will only run in 720i for the 360. This is because the developers only make a game once. In order to make it for two systems they would have to completely re-design the game after publishing the finished copy for the xbox. That requires 2-3 times the amount of time and labor costs.

I imagine that when k3 comes out, the graphics are going to be amazing and they aren't going to waste time and and money by making two copies of the game.

Peace out bitches!!!

Oh btw, any new news??

Yes.

oh... tmac01, you did wonderful, it was somewhat positive and constructive. -claps- but um... i read up on the backwards compatibility of games on 360. I know for a fact that if you put KOTOR 2 into a 360, you will have higher resolution, picture quality, and last but not least, it will use AntiAliasing and Anisiotropic Filtering unlike the original xbox. So.... maaaaaybe they could make it originally for the XBOX and compatible with 360, but then again, graphics wont be as good

Ok...this is quite amazing.

I have no hard proof (meaning links and such) but I know for a fact, the HK factory will be in k3. I had just gotten HK-47 again and was talking to him (mainly because I wanted to see his definition of love again), and after I talked to him about "the sith that hunt us," (I believe it was that even tho It is now under the option with the HK units) he said that the sonic imprint that we got on Peragus doubles as a vocabulator. So I let him see it and he said that it is a tracking device for HK units. But it can also lead us to them.

Well, this is all fine and dandy, but now I think about it and the exile has it, so how would it come into your possesion in k3? hmm

oh well it was an interesting find...

the hk factory is gonna be in k2 restoration project........ see the trailer at http://team-gizka.org/2006-12-25.html

for some reason after u play k2 and then k1 you really notice the differances.
kotor 1 was more star wars-ish wheras k2 was a poor effort, i mean kotor 2 was a good enough story but it was alot of missing little things that ended making the game poor. its annoying that your first saber on saber batle is near the end of the game and the sith lords had absolutely no charachter about them and they didnt really have a porpose in the game except to kill u ..... eewwwwwwwww scarey !!!! even Malak in k1 had history and abit of character.
there were also not space battles and i would have really liked it if there was a equal force of good guys and bad guys......

thats my opinion let me know what u think

you know what my FAVORITE parts of KOTOR 2 were? The Battle of Khoonda and the Battle of Onderon... i just loved being able to watch other people fight to the death for once... it was quite beautiful

I was just looking at some of the stuff the Rest. mod is gonna fix. and one of the tweak's descrption was - "Kreia's a real jerk!"

that made me laugh 😆

if you want to see the stuff, go to http://mantis.team-gizka.org/view_all_bug_page.php?page_number=3

it starts on the 3rd page (where you can see that tweak)

Tmac didnt say anything about the graphics, I did. And if you dont believe me when I say that the graphics will suck for the 360 if they make ONE game of K3, then call customer support at Microsoft and they will tell you everything that I said.

oh... just out of complete randomness for all you newbs that missed the Super Bowl (Colts won) and http://www.break.com/SuperBowl2007/bud_light_slap.html BEST COMMERCIAL EVER!!!

same here, i thot there was supposed to be a graphics boost, but i didnt see any boost, infact, it lagged in some areas, and graphics is the main reason i dont want KOTOR 3 on the xbox too, graphics will be substituted for more money, i remember the days when it was about the quality of the game, not the profit gain. Haha just kidding, it was never about the game.

Yeah I have no idea why it lags while the xbox games are on the 360. Its happening with Vice City too. And the graphics do look the same. In some spots, they look even worse, from ym perspective. But thats what the next gen games are for. Microsoft wasn't concerned about backwards compatibility and this is what we get because of that...

good point, they dont seem like they spent alot of time makin it backwards compatible, i went to xbox.com and they had alot of games that are now backwards compatible, seemed kinda quick.

well.... the graphics should theoreticall get better... but then again, have you ever switched motherboards and CPU's and tried to play a game off of the same harddrive as before... IT DOESNT WORK. so they have to create programs to emulate (virtualize) the 360 into the old XBOX, and sometimes those programs cause lower framerates and quality as the program creates a bottleneck

uhhh...danouo, i have absolutely no idea wut u just sed, haha, i have no clue about computer terms

Whenever I play halo 2 on the 360, the image will get "burned" into the screen and it follows you everywhere amd ot can really get in the way... 🙁

Thats cuz ur tv is ****ed. Get a new tv bro. lol unless by burned into the screen u mean the game is actually leaving parts of a leg or gun just floating in the air, then that would not be your tv, that would be the game 🙂

lol okay, to sum up what i said, there needs to be a program to tell the game that the XBOX 360 is really a regular XBOX, and those programs can cause errors and bottlnecks

Well that would make sense...but i still microsoft should have spent more time on it so it wouldn't cause that bottleneck because I know it is avoidable, as proven by Nintendo several times over.
