I've just read a mini review in the Mirror and they've given it 5 stars. They hardly ever give games 5 stars. The game itself looks amazing. SO, why was it canned!!!

Damn you. It must be Fry's fried chicken anyway.

Note to Damarus: This is England, not Japan.

You may also want to tell your claim to several third party publishers because they've stopped doing GC games based on that same information.

Still, the Cube is better off without the crappiness that is Futurama.

1) The Mirror is not the best publication to review games - readers of OXM will remember the time The Mirror gave an Xbox go karting game 4 out of 5 and said "this is the kind of game the console needs"....

2) Futurama is in fact a crap game in every way. Go buy the DVD's of the series instead - truly the Xbox demo stinks, badly.

3) Because the Gamecube does not have a large enough user base and most owners only buy the great games with high ratings, i.e. not what Futurama would score had it been reviewed.

They're usually spot on in most other reviews and it's not reviewed by him anyway.
