    If (when) they put a larger HD onto the market i hope they have some sort of App where people can transfer data from one drive to another, or they provide the facilities to do this over Live.

    Tempting, but there really isnt any decent VS fighting game in Xbox.. Guilty Gear Asuka was 'okay' on the Xbox, but the scrub-like depth system for DOA series are just plain rubbish..

    Unless NAMCO for some reason decides to port Tekkenn 6 or any Tekken series games for that matter to Xbox360, then I might just get one.. or when X360 hit the £120-£100 mark, whichever comes 1st..

    I was amazed to find Soul Caliber on PS2, I thought that was a Dreamcast only game. Not on Xbox 1 yet?

    SC2 is on Xbox but the clunky controller on the Xbox forbids any combos to be racked up... You can pretty much tell as most tournies uses the PS2 version or actual arcade machines..

    *When I think about it now, if Tekken actually DID come to Xbox.. without a decent figthing stick or the PS2 controller, I'd be rubbish*
