I'm suprised they haven't renamed her to SHARAAAAAAAN Dark.

You guys should be glad Nintendo sold Rare....

To be fair, the first Starfox demo's looked fairly crap, and look how that game ended out looking.

But yeah, I doesn't seem like a game the Xbox couldn't grasp bar a few unnecessary effects...

They could be doing what I suggested a while back:

Have it able to run on the original xbox but run with better graphics and enhanced modes on 360.

A bit like the original which could run in a limited way without the expansion pack.

This is also their best way to maximise the sales for the game as the original xbox will obviously have the bigger userbase upon release.

(About PD0 although it could work for HL2 also)

It's projected release date is late 2005... though it is possible they will rebrand it for the 360 if they wanted to.

Well dang, it's almost like the game was designed for the "Xbox 1" by Rare in their usual timely fashion and Microsoft decided to port it to the 360 as a launch-title. Surely not.

Oh rite, fair enough. I thought they were doing a version for both.

Half Life 2 isn't coming out on 360, seeing as there are screenshots of the production version already for Xbox.

So do you think their will be much difference with Half-Life 2 on XBox and XBox 360?

I can't believe this is how the final game will look. Rare have always been good with the graphics side of things even when the game play suffers.

Just look at Starfox Adventures.

Yep.

A lot of the early games will be sustainers rather than enhancers.

The pics released so far are unimpressive though, just an even more souped up version of whatever game genre it is. Ghost Recon 3 looks nice, but then it did with 2 as well.
