I already know that ps2 has better controls in specific games, like the tony hawk's series, metal gear games, etc... What I'm asking about here is the visuals. I need to know whether multiformat games are going to look better on GC or PS2. And please I don't want anybody to tell me to get either a ps2, or a gc for some other reason, because I already got both, and I want to know for which one should I buy the multiformat games.

If all cartoon games are child games, then what about Grand Theft Auto. The graphics aren't realistic. Sure, the cars are shiny, but the style is still cartoon, even if it is a bit darker than most 'toon games.

I thought about putting child-looking games.

Guess I'm paying for it.

XIII was cel-shaded, hardly a game for the kiddies

Yes. Maybe childish looking. Doesn't make them child games.

The 'child games' argument really is dull and moronic.
Please don't start it up.

Ironing.

Um... I can think of one off the top of my head.

For some games, maybe. But all the time? No.

This should be a laugh.

Aha. Yeah... Halo, PGR, Forza, Crimson Skies, Fable, KOTOR, PES4 online...

Not only is your argument against Xbox poop, you also forgot to include GTA:sa for the PS2, fool.

> GC has Zelda and Mario. Buy a GBA for crying out loud!

I'm not too bothered about Nintendo, and they do come up with alot of crap, but they have alot of good stuff too.
