Soldat for Xbox LIVE Arcade
« on: December 05, 2008, 01:19:23 am »
Hi all. Been a few years sense i'v been here. (Military) Formerly known as sofa_king.


I just recently installed Soldat for the first time in 3 years.(lol)
Game is still as fun as it used to be. However i'm surprised MM hasn't talked to MS about putting it on XBLA. Bringing more users to Soldat and putting a little green in his pockets. Keep the PC version free and charge about 1200 Microsoft Point's for the Live version. Sorry if this has been discussed. Just want to see who else has xbl and would like to play Soldat on the big screen.

Thoughts?

Welcome back.

Soldat will never be programmed for portable consoles/machines, or probably even regular gaming consoles (Michal doesn't have the money nor the time to do so, and even then gameplay probably would flop on such systems. Although if you want to use Soldat on Linux, feel free to help with the Soldat Wine project.)

^ That's why.
It's been discussed before many times, it's been a firm no.

Meh. Oh well. Once MM sees Crash Commando for PS3 he will should think about it. Crash Commando is a Next-Gen rip off of Soldat. As a matter of fact MS has an XNA for 3rd party developers such as MM.

For your info, MM himself is also working on a new game "Link Dead", and he's spending time on that project mostly.

Soldat is written in Delphi. For XBOX you could use XNA but then you need to port everything to c/c++ and XNA that's why it will possibly never happen.
