Console Generation Exclusives: Xbox - MobyGames (original) (raw)
This group is for games originally released for the Xbox console that were not released on its generation competitors consoles (in this case the GameCube, Dreamcast, and PlayStation 2). PC and handheld releases do not matter in this context. Later consoles outside this generation that have these game do no disqualify them from inclusion in this group. Games must originate on this console so no emulated releases are allowed.
Note: In order to keep this group clean, please refrain from adding collector's editions, DLCs, etc... Just the base game entry will do.
Game needs to apply all this in order to be added to this group:
- Game must be native for the Xbox console (not emulated)
- Game must not exist on GameCube, Dreamcast or PlayStation 2
- Game must not be special edition or DLC, only base game (NOTE: If Special Edition release is the only one, then it's acceptable)
- Game must not exist on earlier generation console
NOTE: Updated releases ported to other console include base game from this group as well (i.e. MGS2: Sons of Liberty got re-released as MGS2: Substance on PS2 and Xbox as well, and Onimusha: Warlords for PS2 got released as updated version for Xbox as Genma Onimusha)
Complete remakes are acceptable, just high-resolution releases are not
Things that don't disqualify game from being added to this group:
- If the game originated on a computer or a handheld of same or earlier generation
- If game is released on console of later generation than this one
- If game is released on console of earlier generation than this one at the same time and are exclusive to single console per generation (this is usually a case with cross-gen titles during period of switching generations)
- Game can be a retail AAA title or digital indie
