Rosetta@Home Distributed Folding Coming to Xbox 360?

Gizmodo's Adam Frucci takes a look at the chance of a folding program called Rosetta@Home coming to the Xbox 360 which with the introduction of the XNA software the chances seem to be more likely.

Too funny they could atleast get Folding@home instead of Rossetta imo. Good luck with your new approach to the industry.

BIadestarX6231d ago

What industry? Do you really know what this application does? Ohh I see.. you actually think that Sony marketting strategy and naming can help save cancer better. wow.. fanboys have to turn anything into a flamewar.

ASSASSYN 36o6231d ago

Im not leaving my 360 on so it could play with itself.

nix6230d ago

and i know the reason why. ROD? q:

Good for them if they want to help. I looked into it just a little bit and it seems that it's basically the same thing as Folding@Home. It just has a different name is all. It's still dealing with proteins that are folding and it's 3 dimensional. I'll be curious to see if there are any other differences.

This always cracks me up when a Sony fan throws this fraise around. MS is very flattered by the PS3s make up, you guys can DL while playing whats next? music or has that been imitated already. Why you guys get ass hurt thinking things are Sony exclusive like HDMI, Folding & Bigger HDD is beyond me.

Bleyd6231d ago

Actually, yes, I am glad that Sony implemented downloading while playing games just like the 360 already had. It was a great idea. That's all there is to it. Got any more great ideas for the PS3 to use? I sure hope so cuz that's what this is all about. Two companies competing directly against one another and the customer always wins. :)

Used to love this one, but X-Men Legends 1 and 2 will always be my favorites, especially Rise of Apocalypse. Would pay some good money to play it today with online multiplayer, back then I had no way to get a modem

I remember buying them dirt cheap on the PS4 and then a few days later I read they were delisted. I was wondering why the bundle was price so low and got my answer when that happened.

Sad to say this is one game franchise next to the Xmen that needs a sequel. I use to play the hell out of Xmen Legends and Marvel Ultimate Alliance. Was great when my cousin had the OG Xbox play with four other people and then playing online. Great games glad to see it reappear even though I own the discs love the mechanics of this game.

It got a sequel..but for dumbass #reasons as a switch exclusive.

shinoff21831h ago

It looked so horrible to. They should've kept it similar to the first two.

Asplundh51m ago

Because Nintendo funded it, they did the same for Bayonetta.

Knightofelemia34m ago

I totally forgot about the Switch sequel.

jukins1h ago

Misleading. This page is whats available for people who owned the game prior to delisting.

The first game was the best imo.

It's A Crime That There's No Sleeping Dogs 2 Yet

Huzaifah from eXputer: "Sleeping Dogs from the early 2010s is one of the best open-world games out there but in dire need of a resurgence."

LG_Fox_Brazil4d ago

I agree, I consider the first one a cult classic already

isarai3d ago

You say "yet" as if it's even possible anymore. United Front Games is gone, along with anyone that made this game what it is

CrimsonWing693d ago

That’s what happens when games sell poorly. And I’ve seen people wonder why people cry when a game sells badly… this is your answer.

solideagle3d ago

Majority of the time it's true but if a company/publisher is big (in terms of money), they can take a hit or 2. e.g. I am not worried about Rebirth sales as Square will make Remake 3 anyway but if FF 17 doesn't sell then Square might need to look for alternative. <-- my humble opinion

Abnor_Mal3d ago

Doesn’t Microsoft own the IP now since they acquired Activision?

DaReapa3d ago

No. Square Enix owns the IP.

Abnor_Mal3d ago

Oh okay, Activision owned True Crime, but when that didn’t sell as intended it was canceled. Six months later Square Enix bought the rights and changed the title to Sleeping Dogs.*

*As per Wikipedia

Sleeping Dogs was a sleeper hit back then. It was fantastic. It actually still is. Would love a sequel to this, or at least a revive of True Crime series.
