Hatchetforce 0 Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 http://www.cgonline.com/content/view/235/2/ Computer Games Magazine has confirmed that the PC version of the upcoming tactical shooter Rainbow Six: Lockdown will not be released alongside the PS2 and Xbox versions as originally announced. While the first press release announcing the game hinted at a simultaneous shipping date for the PC version this spring, a representative from the game’s publisher Ubi Soft told Computer Games Magazine otherwise. The only things the representative would confirm about the PC version of Lockdown is that it would ship sometime later than the PS2 and Xbox versions and that it will be a all new game developed by Rainbow Six creators Red Storm and will not be a port of either of the console versions. This is the second Tom Clancy branded game series from Ubi Soft that has moved from being primarily a PC franchise to a console franchise. The first game in the Ghost Recon series was released initially on the PC with console ports afterwards, but Ghost Recon 2 was released first for the PS2 and Xbox last November. So far there is no definitive word from Ubi Soft on the status of Ghost Recon 2 for the PC. Link to post Share on other sites

Parabellum 12 Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 That certainly is good news. Perhaps R64 will live up to its namesake. Link to post Share on other sites
Jack57 0 Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 That's great news - there is hope yet. You know I still like RavenShield inspite of all the horrible bug episodes. There's no one much online anymore but I still like to do the occasional terro hunt Link to post Share on other sites
