Full Auto 2 not PS3 exclusive...um, good?


Waaaaay back before the last E3 ever, SEGA let everyone know that Full Auto 2 was coming to PS3 exclusively. Xbox 360 fanboys rejoiced, as they wouldn't have to play the sequel to "the game that proved there is a way to add automatic weapons and fast cars and make it not fun." Well, folks, those carefree days are over. It looks like the 360 may be subjected to even more mediocre car combat. Club Skill was apparently trolling around the European press site for the game when they noticed that 360 was listed as a platform, along with some updated images. This isn't exactly an official announcement, so there's still a chance we might all be spared.

In all seriousness, the first Full Auto did have a lot of promise. Hopefully, SEGA can make Full Auto 2 the game that it should have been the first time.

(Fanboy trivia: I was the guy who submitted the Full Auto 2 tip to Joystiq way back in May. Follow your dreams, kids, and you can shirk your daily work responsibilities, too!)

1. I remember hearing that Full Auto 2 is just a PS3 launch exclusive, not PS3 exclusive... so i am not surprised it may come to X360.

2. Don't know about you guys, but this is fantastic! I always thought it would make it to 360, but hearings this news gives more hope. I loved Full Auto and Full Auto 2 was the only reason I even considered buying a PS3. Yes, I love it that much.

3. I submitted tips and an application, but I still have to work for Radio Shack. Come to think of it, where's the new writer you were going to hire a month or two back? Were all the applicants as bad as me?

4. puh_fifer,

The new writer is still coming. Taking a lot longer than expected, unfortunately.

And pretty soon you'll all get to see a whole lot more of me. More me is always good, right?

5. I've got to agree with RazorElite, I'm one of the dozen or so Full Auto fans out there, and the thought of 2 being exclusive to PS3 made me sad; no longer though!

And Richard, of course that's good! You're the soul of xbox360fanboy... or some such

8. I'm going with razor on this one.I loved it too and I'm also very happy it's coming to 360.

9. I know this probably wont turn out to be a game like halo but we have seen this with many third party titles lately. Its still a bad sign for sony as developers know they will make more money on 360 since its larger installed base right now. The only exclusives for sony seem to be first party titles and they are no better than 360s and in my opinion look much worse.

10. Full Autp wasnt great but it was good and fun to play and if they can make FA2 better than part one ill get it

11. I didn't hate Full Auto.. I did feel it was a game that didn't live up to it's promise.. but if it wasn't trying to hit hthat launch window, it could have.

Big Hype, it didn't live up to. That 60FPS gameplay that was promised but never happened. When they went PS3 only, It seemed as though Sega was going to blame the 360, and pump out another mediocre game on the PS3. Or, give into the Sony hype machine, and finish it from the 360 base, as they don't have to start from scratch... and sony would take all the credit.. (like it seems anmco may be doing with RR6.. which I DID like, but fealt it was half-assed and wasn't going to accomplish anything when everyone wanted neato-keen next gen shine, and if it didn't have that, they didn't want to give it a chance)

12. Im def not getting this game; I was very dissapointed with full auto 1 which was fun for a whole 5 mins before it got boring AND THEN when the game deleted my data after about 6 hrs of game play that did not help my feelings of how the game was
