Post by: tp4tissue on Wed, 03 July 2019, 21:55:55
Metal Wolf Chaos had been a Jpn exclusive for Original Xbox (2002)

You play as the United States President,  who pilots a Mecha to save the nation against a rebellion led by the _Vice President_

It's coming out on GOG and Steam.. says 4K + widescreen support.

The original Xbox game had alot of frame drops and only 480p 4:3.

They delayed this game 3 years because of 9/11, but I think it would have boosted patriotism if anything.

It still blows my mind the original Xbox supported 1080i natively. Way ahead of it's time.

there are only ~10 games that played at 1080i, most were 480p, some made 720p. It's basically a Geforce 3.5,  slightly faster than 3, slower than 4
