X-Files Game finally done right. (Xbox)

Coming this Summer on Xbox:
link

The X-Files™: Resist or Serve contains three horrific, interwoven episodes created by the Executive Producers of The X-Files. The game features authentic X-Files characters, music and storyline, voiceovers by David Duchovny, Gillian Andersen and the rest of the original cast, and unique DVD-style bonus material containing exclusive commentary and interviews.
There were some great screenshots in a recent magazine (Game Informer maybe?), but here's a few from VU's website:

Well, VU seems to be one of the few companies that can make a decent game from a movie/tv license. Since they already own the license, they can focus all their money on the game. I'm optimistic, but I'm not gonna hold my breath. It's very promising that they have the characters looking so true to life and they are using the real voice actors - including several sub-characters like the Cigarette Smoking Man. Plus, the show's writers wrote the stories. Sounds real good on paper.

What sort of game is it going to be? From the screenshots it resembles Splinter Cell somewhat, but I could be wrong.

According to GameInformer - this is going to be a Survival Horror game (*wets pants) and it will be available for the PS2 as well... that's the only place I can find where it says PS2 also, but I'm sure that's true. It's for sure coming out for the Xbox.

This month's Game Informer had a ton of previews - I mean, for a sucky magazine it occasionally comes up with some good info.

IGN is mentioning it for the PS2 as well.

This looks great and I'm really freaking out.

The PC X-Files game was fun but I hated playing as an outside agent. This is almost too good to be true.

I agree... sounds good on paper and it looks pretty good. But it could still end up very lame.

It could, but I highly doubt it.

Looks very nice. I'll be picking this one up if the gameplay is up to par.

If the game ends up being anywhere near as good as it looks, I'll definitely be checking it out myself. I love survival horror games!

I'm looking forward to it.

It was the same as the PC game right? If the answer is yes I have to say it was an X-Files game with no freakin monsters.

How lame is that? It was kind of fun at first but then became very boring. I'd rather have fake agents with cool monsters than video capture with no good scares or creatures.

Ahem... Has everyone seen the X-Files preview at Gamspot? Sounds very cool, plus there are more stills. One question: Is the release Q3 2003 or Q2 2004? There seems to be some confusion over there.
