Mathematic capabilities?

Isn't this done in the processor?

If so, the PS2 has the same number of "bits" as the Gamecube on but the Gamecube has a higher frequency so it can do more calculations a second.
Also, the Gamecube has large Cache so it's more efficient and effective with it's calculations.

In what way does the PS2 allow more advanced calculations and AI?

I think the GameCube is OK at best. I don't like Nintendo games because they tend to be quite lethargic. So far I have enjoyed my PS2 immensley. I once had an N64, and although there are some good games, the majority are not to my taste. However, on the PS2, I already have more games than I can play, like GT4, Quake 3, TimeSplitter, Fur Fighters and the quite simply excellent SSX.

Also, the GameCube has inferior polygin and mathematic capabilities compared to the PS2 (although superior textures) which allows for bigger landscapes, more detail and more complicated games, which I like the sound of. Sony also have some excellent exclusive developers, such as Sony Studios Liverpool, Camdem and Soho, Blade Interactive, Naughty Dog and probably Codemasters and Criterion.

So, all in all, the PS2 is a much better choice for me. I'm not saying the GameCube's not good, it's just that I think the PlayStation 2's better.

I'm not the Dark Mark from NGC Magazine, although that Dark Mark is pretty cool. I just called myself Dark Mark 'cos my name's Mark and, er - ahem. Anyway, I'm Dark Mark. My player names on Perfect Dark deathmatch on N64 and Quake 3 Arena on Dreamcast are also Dark Mark.

They look at bit dodgey!

Except the silver one, which is OK. I'll stick with my black PS2 and orange GC please!
