This is quite interesting. Do you remember The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay from its glory days on the original Xbox? We sure did have a lot of fun playing that back in 2004, and we're kind of thinking you did too. Given the game's first-person fighting style, stealth, and long-range combat, it really was remarkable.

Now, it should be remembered that developer Sweden-based Starbreeze Studios promised, on that same year, to come up with a sequel. Unfortunately, no sequel ever appeared.

But the Official Xbox Magazine (OXM), in its March 2007 issue, has something to say about Escape from Butcher Bay:


Wondering why The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay isn't backward-compatible with Xbox 360? There's a really good reason. You will get to play it on 360. In a form you probably wouldn't expect.




A form we wouldn't expect, eh? A sequel or a simple port or whatever? Are they talking about a fully downloadable game? We really have no idea and we guess that's OXM's intention. To tease us gamers and to stir the pot.

This was easily one of my favorite original Xbox games, so I hope there's some truth to this rumor. A re-release would be OKAY, but a sequel is what I'd really love to see.

I want a sequel too. A re-release would have to be very cheap for me to buy, regardless of good the graphics are.
