Actually, IMO, playing Joint Operations on the PC beats them all with up to 150 players on a server where actual teamwork in-game is encouraged....if not necessary! As for the XBox, I recently bought Crimson Skies since it was on sale for $19.99 and it totally rocks....and beats the PC version hands-down!!! My kids, my nephew and I love it!!! It has made me want to buy XBox Live now as a result of that game.....even though I have other Live enabled games.... As for the XBox2, thankfully it's going to come in three flavors.....without HDD, with HDD and as a PC/XBox hybrid for the best of both worlds! Now *THAT'S* something I am definitely looking forward to!!!!!!!
