I bought this game on PC, which means it is another old PC game of mine that is in my closet somewhere.   I need to dig it out one day.

X360 version of FF is 720 and 1080i.

Throw the PS3 back in the gutter.

Freedom Fighters was great. GREAT!

So much good crap happening in that game... and it only makes me more bummed that Kane and Lynch is the only follow-up we get from that team.

I want to find an xbox version so I can play it again in 720p. I have the playstation 2 version but don't want to hook up that old relic.

With FF I played the game, but kept thinking "when does this get interesting?" I don't think I got past the 2nd or third scenario before deciding it wasn't worthwhile. Hitman and K&L are much more memorable and unique IMO. K&L has better graphics, gunplay, more interesting characters (compared to what I've seen in FF), and it's completely devoid of nauseatingly patriotic undertones. If FF is really as good as people are saying, when does it get "good"? It felt like a wonky subset of Hitman's shooting mechanics shoehorned onto a badly rendered urban overworld consisting mainly of low-poly, low-res corridors.

If you are a whiny emo Strabucks swilling Mac owner type, why would you even play Freedom Fighters?  Maybe you should try some Wii games where it's impossible to lose and no one's feelings get hurt.

I wish they made a FF2 instead of Kane And Lynch.

Boo ya. However, didn't EA do Freedom Fighters, and then IO Interactive was bought by Eidos? I think there would have been IP issues, or even the hint of IP issues with EA's lawyers in the wings may have been enough to point them elsewhere. It's funny; it's like Freedom Fighters was meant to be an extension of the movie RED DAWN, but there's no telling what the hell they were thinking with K&L other than marketing repeatedly yelling "gritty!" at them.

Yes, well both sides need to work this out and make the Goddamn sequel already. Enough of the K&L BS.

Buy the Xbox game DVD of it, put it on your Xbox, there could be an update to your 360 BC, then it should start playing.

WOW, are you saying that my PS2 version will work on my XBox 360??? AWESOME!!!!

But seriously, I want to be able to play it on my 360. I'm not buying a ps2 again (my old one doesnt work right, disk drive problems) to play my old ps2 copy. (Why I still have my ps2 copy I have no idea).
