Well Well then it appears that Splinter Cell the so called Xbox exclusive was infact a multi platform game from the very beginning and infact the developers actually wanted to make sure they could achieve the same level of detail on the PS2 and GC games otherwise they would have never have started the project.

Infact the PS2 version has extras, that are geared more towards the PS2 user as they demand more and have higher skill level, not my words but the actual developers comments.

Then again I can imagine that it's a hard game for Xbox users because of their poorly designed controllers.

They have branches in Buckingham palace or something? Neither of those establishments pay anything like that. You'd be lucky to pull away £5 in a harvester, and if you're working in newlook for anything more, then you're probably the manager.

How do find time to buy and drive a Lexus when you're so busy being a gimp?

Also the fact that you're 5 won't help.

I was under the impression that people with dyslexia DID get extra tuition. The only reason you haven't had it is because you borderlined just above the "remedial" band, and so weren't handed the embarrassment of extra tutelage.

This is more like it....!

But you could turn it around. IF GC can produce better audio + graphics (uncompressed) than PS2, when GC handles compressed data the quality drops back to the same level as the PS2 - which wouldn't need to be compressed due to the extra space on a dvd-rom. So if GC data is more likely to drop in quality due to compression, back to PS2 levels, why bother buying a GC in the first place - with the exception of the desire to play GC exclusive games.
