Gothic for Xbox?
   

I was digging around IGN and on the release dates for 2004 it says Gothic TBA for Xbox. Says Xicat is doing it. There web-site says nothing about it though. And the 2 rpgs they put on XBOX really suck.

I would love to see this done on Xbox though. I play both PC and consoles and personally believe the translations of Morrowind and Arx Fatalis were very cool. I'd rather use analog sticks & force-feedback on my TV then play at a higher resolution with a standard keyboard and mouse.

Anyone hear any real announcements about this? Or is this the normal vaporware that you find on web-sites like this?

It was announced quite a while ago that gothic was being ported to xbox (I think all 3 consoles) but it very well could be vaporware.

It was announced back at the GII sneak peek press event in late 2002, but shortly after that, the person who had said it would happen left JoWooD. So... I wouldn't count on it.

Why in God's name would you rather play with analog sticks? They're less precise than a mouse, and trying to navigate Gothic's inventory without a keyboard will be hell, I guarantee. Also you wouldn't have enough buttons to assign hotkeys for spells if you become a mage.
