In Response To: Question asking time.... (Maestro)

Who knows? But the earliest is most likely when TakeTwo bought about 20% Bungie last year.

The reason for Simultaeous release seems to be to spend the least amount of money on marketing Oni. If the had seperate releasedates, they would have to spend money for marketing 3 seperate times. If they have the PC/Mac version done before the PS2 (or vice versa) then no big deal. It'd be etter for bungie to do the simultaneous release, and if it's good for Bungie, it's good for Bungie fans (usually).

> Will the Playstation version differ from the pc/mac version?

Posibbly, but probably not very noticably. Ports of PC games to the Mac usually don't differ too much.

> Will there be multiplayer on the PSX2 version, is that up to bungie?

I mentioned this a while ago, and I guess no one can really know until Bungie tells us. Checking the playstation.com site - the developer version of the PS2 has "Network Terminal (100 Base-T/10 Base-T)" but that doesn't mean the consumer version has it. Anyway, I'm sure the PS2 WILL have some kind of networking capability. The current state of things in the game industry almsot require networkable systems.

> What about Halo for Playstation 2?

Sounds good to me!

> will there still be sexy college girls in matt's apartment on the PSX2
> version?

I'll leave that up to Matt to answer. But I sure hope so! ;)

Aren't chat rooms great??

My question... While it's not very likely... will the PC/Mac version come on a DVD or CD? Most likely it will be a DVD for PS2.
