Team Fortress 2 could support Vista vs. 360 play

360 News from N4G | Team Fortress 2

360 - Team Fortress 2 - Team Fortress 2 could support Vista vs. 360 play

Valve says there is no technical reason why Team Fortress 2 players on the PC running Windows Vista couldn't play with and against Team Fortress 2 players on the Xbox 360.

"We'd love to, technically from our side, there's no reason why we can't," Robin Walker, designer and engineer at Valve, told GameInformer.

"[I]t really comes down to knowing Microsoft has announced that Shadowrun is going to do that, but they haven't let anyone outside of Microsoft, I mean we don't have an API or anything."

Asked whether fan-made modifications for the PC version could conceivably appear on Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 as downloadable content, Walker said, "From our perspective, we'd like to do it all.

"We'd love to have the Xbox and PC play together, and technically, from our side, there's no technical reason why you can't - the engine is the same, the network they use is the same."

"It really comes down to negotiations with Microsoft," he added.

360 News | Team Fortress 2

There's no technical reason why Team Fortress 2 couldn't allow PC players and Xbox 360 players to play against each other, says developer Valve.

New Team Fortress 2 details

360 News from N4G | Team Fortress 2

360 - Team Fortress 2 - New Team Fortress 2 details

A trickle of tantalizing new information on Valve's almost decade-long delayed Team Fortress 2 has been revealed in German gaming magazine PC Action.

A translation over at the Halflife2.net forums provides a summary of article, which includes details on TF2's new gameplay modes, maps, weapons, and classes - not to mention somewhat down to earth comments on the competiton's class structures by Valve's Robin Walker himself.

Of noteworthy mention however was the possibility of cross platform multiplayer between the PC, Xbox 360 and PS3 versions of TF2.

In short, while technically feasible, Valve is still uncertain whether it will make it into the final game - possibly even being up to the likes of Microsoft and Sony to get the wheels in motion for it to happen in the first place.

Team Fortress 2 revealed

360 News | Team Fortress 2

Last week, in his signature ho-hum fashion, Gabe Newell (boss of renegade independent developer Valve) dropped the biggest bomb of publisher Electronic Arts' entire press event: the return of Team Fortress 2 for the PC, the Xbox 360 and the PS3. First announced over five years ago, TF2 has been missing-in-action ever since. Newell shared a teaser trailer that marked the return of the seminal class-based team shooter. It showed that Valve has completely scrapped the gritty, realistic look of ...

Tecmo Bowl to punt again

360 News | Tecmo Bowl (2008)

After announcing Project Rygar and showing a demo of Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword, Tecmo felt it necessary to further egg on the world by mentioning, in an almost passing sort of way, that Tecmo Bowl is coming back in 2008. No platform was named, no screens or art were provided, just the announcement. Seems like par for the course this week, huh? Lots of talk, not so much action. Look for more on the revamped Tecmo Bowl as it becomes available, or check out the NES original on Wii's Virtual ...
