If you've ever wanted to be a ninja, get this game.

Just done the CIA level, I showed everyone the Shaolin elbow.

Played the NGC demo. To be honest, it was a sucky demo. Very short.

And didn't encourage me to get the game... I didn't like the camera at all, and the area I played felt too rigid. Couldn't find any alternative routes or ways of doing things that offered anything more than novelty value. Also, right near the beginning there's these wooden ramp things with awning next to them, and it looks like you can get up onto the awnings then onto a balcony through a door. Despite the fact he could easily jump/climb onto the awnings, the game wouldn't let you. Okay, fair enough, but it actually looks like that's where I'm supposed to be headed. After wandering around this chinese restaurant for a bit longer I notice a ladder on the side of a cabinet in the kitchen... bloody annoying.

Anyhow. Can't say the demo impressed me...

You know my feelings on the matter...

Out of Splinter Cell and Hitman 2 I would say that the latter gave me a much bigger sense of freedom and enjoyment. You have to get both though as they both offer completley different style of play.

Bloody marvellous. I now have to decide between Splinter Cell, the Jackass Box Set and now Hitman 2.

Great.

That is true about the graphics being better on the xbox, but the
game cubes are great so what does it matter! The controls on the
game cube let you do things much faster the on the xbox pad.

Xbox has got the better graphics, though they're not 'that' much better. They're just a bit clearer and some of the lighting is done better.

Visually every review I have read has said the Xbox version is the smoothest. The Cube version though has gameplay additions.

The 'Cube version has better graphics, GBA connectivity and one exclusive weapon over the PS2 one. It's the best version.

Is it just the same as the PS2 version or does it have different levels and stuff or what?
