This thread has been linked to the game 'Driv3r'.
In a recent interview, head honcho of Driv3r, Martin Edmondson talks about the GameCube version which was not to be; not just down to processor power, it's about how data is processed etc etc
Quote:
"Edmondson: As for the GameCube, the machine is just not geared toward games like Driv3r, it couldn't handle that level of detail. We have some ex-Rare people who know the 'Cube very well, and what it came down to at the end of the day was: "we can do it if we cut down on this detail" - and we weren't prepared to do that. "

fantastic reply from someone on another forum:

Clearly our eyes have been deceiving us, and the GC cannot handle games like F-Zero GX or Metroid Prime. You would think, though, that it'd be able to deal with a game as unspectacular as Driver.
What a pr*ck.
