My wife and I were talking about this in the car yesterday and I was trying to explain certain charictures being faithful to there consols. She said that if all games were on all different consols the games companies would make more money thus the consols would make more money. My point was that yes many games should be on different consols/PC but curtain games should not be on other consols. I think its interesting that Sonic is on Xbox and I was trying to explain why this must upset some gamers. I was never a sega guy, but I for one would hope Id never see Mario on PS2 if Nintendo ever went belly up. If Nintendo died, I would hope that Mario would die with Nintendo. After Dream Cast stopped making games, and sega died (imo), one would hope that sonic the heghog would have its place in the hearts of enough gamers to not sell it to Sega's competitor.
Halo is on PC, which is fine, its not the same as the xbox version, but I strongly belive that the MC is the flag ship for the xbox and I for one would be disapionted to see him on a PS2 or GC. Nintendo has Mario, PS had Bash, sega had sonic. Xbox has Halo. These things should not change. Everyother game is important and should be on any other system, but I think companies should keep there mascots on the same team and loyal.
What do you guys think? Should it matter?
