majorleag 0 Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 Is it gonna happen or is it just plans for xbox only at this point?No current plans for an Xbox 360 version, but it is all but certain that the Xbox version will work fine on the 360.No real reason to do a version specifically for the 360 yet as you can't do much in the way of enhancing it and by making it for the original Xbox you get the current installed base of Xbox plus the benefit of new Xbox 360 owners.Not coming either way until February.They also have a promotional Stacked chip set that may be made available depending on the retailer. This will most likely be a gift with purchase item.We have been offered this set, not sure if we will mess with it as cheap chip sets are a dime a dozen. They are Stacked branded chips, no cards, button or dice just chips in a carrying case. Link to post Share on other sites

CFVPoker 0 Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 The xbox 360 isn't actually 'backwards compatible.' It contains emulation software much like those available currently for PC's to play NES/SNES/Sega/PS/PS2/Xbox games. Not every old xbox game will be playable on the 360 because of this reason. In fact, only a list of about 220 titles have been emulated for the 360. Chances are if you buy Stacked you won't be able to play it on the 360 for quite some time. Link to post Share on other sites
CodyHartman 0 Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 Im really looking foward to the Xbox360, that way all those ppl w/ the regular Xbox will sell theirs and then I can pick up one super cheap and get it modified with all types of old school games.Damn Im cheap.
