It was far from shovelware for sure. I really, really liked it. I think that since it's release the buzz was 'man this game is really cool', sort of like Family Guy getting canceled (although the show has jumped the shark this year imho). I feel sure that a sequel will outsell the first one. I'll get it, at least. The numbers were less than stellar because the game was pushed as ‘a wrapper for the Halo 3 demo’.

That'd probably scupper any Crackdown 2 deal in the process, so Microsoft had better get their arses in gear just in case. :-D There have been rumblings about Take Two buying RTW and turning APB into GTA Online.

Second party means the development was carried out by a separate company funded by the platform holder, who publish the game and usually own the IP. Crackdown, Gears, Resistance, these fall into this category. Third party means the platform holder had no involvement in either development or publishing.

Especially since I don't think that Microsoft own the IP, jusdging by what the Real Time Worlds man said. And isn't APB miles off yet? If Crackdown 2 is comng it's not next year.

The first one of these games is on my reasons-to-buy-a-360 list, so adding another reason would be good for me. :-)
