whats wrong with the current shadow warriors and doomx ports>? just asking as i dont know id like to know, it would be awesome to get those updated ports as well marathon on the box. i thought red ring was doing it then he just stopped and stopped answering pms for some reason?
The Shadow Warrior (and Duke Nukem 64 port XDuke) are both almost perfect, except as I said they could do with being altered to save to individual save files per user added mod. Plus a virtual keyboard might be nice to add cheats and load levels during the game, etc, but it's not a necessity.
Doom also could do with both of the above features, plus it won't run Dehacked levels and stuff, but OdameX (

Yes Red Ring was working on Marathon, but as far as I know he's not posted about it in a while. I hope he resumes work on it. A500, who made XDuke, XShadow and others, claimed to have gotten Marathon and some other stuff running on the XBox, then he just disappeared. We don't know why, and never heard from him again, and judging by the ports he released of Duke Nukem 3D, Descent 1 and 2, etc, he knew what he was doing, so it seems very unlikey that he was just stringing us along. A real dissapointment, and I wish he'd release his ports here, and hopefully carry on making more XBox stuff.
