Another potential Far Cry or Half Life?

That was awful. It didn't even have co-op.

They could have at least changed the grass, rock and sand textures to something better than blobs.

You could also argue that Far Cry has been 'expanded' rather than 'cut-down'.

Tsk, graphics ho's...

HAHAHA
You're a bit thick, mate.
All Xbox games come on DVD, so that must mean every. single. title. is a "top game".

Oh, and as for this logic:

I can do something similar.

A black man murdered someone.
So he's a criminal.

One criminal, black skin, so all people with black skin must be murderers.
"Pretty obvious really"

You could argue but you'd be wrong.

Farcry on the xbox is a completly different game they have changed loads of the gameplay.

'K, but lets see if the vast open ended gameplay, and the incredible view distances remain intact.

DVD Rom on the PC, you plum.

What a ridiculous second example btw, I don't what you’re talking about but I know you’re talking out of your proverbial.

Jesus Christ, newbies such as yourself do not have a clue.

DVD and CD are practically the same mate, they just have different sizes of information to hold. A game might come on both 5 CD and 1 DVD versions, but they'll be exactly the same. DVD makes no difference to the quality of a game.

Okay, what makes PC games coming on DVD any different than Xbox games being published on DVD? Go on. Tell me.

Please, my overlord, PLEASE explain why the size of a game's files tell you how good it is.

"oh my! Half Life 2 is 4GB when the original was 0.7GB, that means it's more than 4 times better!"

Ridiculous eh? I'll explain it then.
Some black people are criminals, this does not mean they all are.
Some good games come on DVDs, this does not mean all games that come on DVD are good.

> Jesus Christ, newbies such as yourself do not have a clue.

And you're quite possibly the most retarded person I've ever had a conversation with.
