In Response To: Re: Marathon360? (AfroRyan)

: Yeah, but Aleph One doesn't exactly pull it off too well...plus, voice chat
: isn't REALLY supported by Aleph One. Sure, it's mainly my opinion that it
: doesn't work well, but I'm not exactly biased; I've played on both Xbox
: Live and Aleph One for hours, and Live stomps Aleph One in just about
: every aspect...except the whole not being free thing.

Voice chat is *really* supported in Aleph One. I'm not sure where you get that it doesn't. And as for multiplay, I've never played on XBL, mainly because I don't want to sit in front of my blurry TV trying to shoot foul-mouthed pre-teens with a clumsy analog stick. But I have done more than just play "hours" of Aleph One games, and for the most part, they just work. If everyone has a decent connection, it's just like a LAN--not sure how you can stomp on that. Plus I can save films :)

: Plus, mouse and keyboard controls technically could be supported...but it
: being superior is an opinion...plus, it's Marathon. It's not exactly
: complicated enough (gameplay wise) that it requires the mouse and
: keyboard.

You've just lost all credibility when it comes to making claims about what does and does not work well in multiplayer games. Keyboarders, console controller users, even with that detestable auto-aim crutch, do not stand a chance against the better mousers, even in a "not exactly complicated" game like Marathon. That's not a matter of opinion.
