Shack Interview: BF2MC on Xbox 360

DICE and EA are reworking last year's Battlefield 2: Modern Combat for the Xbox 360. I sent off a brief series of questions to senior producer Dan Blackstone about how the upcoming port is turning out. And here you go!
The Battlefield franchise from Digital Illusions CE is one of the best known and best selling current PC multiplayer franchises around, so it's only natural that it would eventually make its way to other platforms. DICE and Electronic Arts indeed brought the series to consoles late last year with Battlefield 2: Modern Combat (PS2, Xbox), a spinoff of Battlefield 2 on the PC. The game was fairly well received, but some gamers, especially those familiar with the game's PC counterparts, saw some weak points to be improved. Much like Criterion and EA are doing with Burnout Revenge (PS2, Xbox, X360), DICE and EA are currently working on an Xbox 360 version of Modern Combat, hoping to make Microsoft's console the definitive platform for the game.
