Jazz Jackrabbit 1 might be ported to XBLA

[n00b]

A while back, Epic showed interested in porting old IP to Xbox Live Arcade. Recently at GDC Cliffy B said that he really wanted Jazz 1 to be on XBLA, but due to all of the company working on UT07 or pre-development for a potential sequel to Gears of War, Epic can not port it to XBLA themselves.

However, Cliffy has said "If anybody knows a person out there that can do it for us, more power to them" which is where the might part comes in.

DO WE HAS THE POWER??

...this would seem more serious if you said "have" not "has. But if this a joke, then all I will say is: LOL.

Still doesn't seem very serious when you say "has"... :(

Actually, I knew about the XBLA Jazz 1 thing, it's just the "do we has the power" thing that gets me... I honestly don't think we do.

Exactly, thats why I said it. I was mocking those people who come out of nowhere and say "LETS MAKE NEW JAZZ!!"

OMG! LOOK! THE POWER! *points*

Someone grab it!

Uh, OpenJazz -> XBox?

[ShadeJackrabbit]

...point taken.

Funny thing, it seems a lot of people who say they will make a new JJ3 have bad grammar and spelling. All you need is spellcheck...

[ambesoftware]

is my spelling that bad ?

Uh, OpenJazz -> XBox?

Great idea! Better yet- Jazz Jackrabbit 1 -> XBox.

You can play Jazz1 on the xbox with dosxbox..

[n00b]

Well now we can't do a direct port since thats free, we'll have to add achievements, online co-op and leader boards.

[Coolpeanutbutter]

whould that mean that you play jazz1 online

[ShadeJackrabbit]

YOU PLAYS THE JAZZ ONLINE?!

I couldn't help shouting that out. But I still stand saying that any changes made on Xbox should be made on PC.

[Coolpeanutbutter]

shade does have a point.
