Post cortex command for the xbox 360???
Will it ever happened? They have a xbox 360 controller preset so it could work. this would be awesome if it did come out for the xbox 360.

Doesn't seem entirely impossible, however I see a few potential issues.
1. Can the 360 run Lua scripts? just wondering.
2. Does the 360 have a processor capable of withstanding CC at moderate to high resolutions with a standard delta time at 1.0x speed?
3. Is a console really worth Data's time to develop a game that is compatible with it? (no PC gamer bias in this point, nope, none at all)

1. The Lua scripts are run by the game so this isn't a problem.
2. 3.2GHz tri-core. Should be sufficient, the game could also be optimized for that specific processor, something you can't do on PC.
3. Probably not.

1. ah ok, good to know.
2. Good point I suppose, still that implies a lot of work for Data, and a separate version from PC that would need a lot of separate work.
3. and that's the crux of it. bringing a PC game to a console is functionally useless, as consoles are just gimped PCs.

I disagree with your opinion of consoles, but agree it would be a waste of time. CC is all about mods, consoles don't support mods.

The problem with mod support on a console is that MS wouldn't tolerate it.

There's no software or hardware limitation preventing you from picking up a chatpad and writing your own mods if it were on console. Sound and art assets might be a problem though.

I'd love to see CC on the 360, I think it could be a pretty successful arcade title, and I'd love to see it let you copy assets from a thumb drive to the hard drive to make your own mods (or just import ones from your PC) but it'd need a complete overhaul from the ground up and it's just not going to happen. Oh well.
