explanation please!!

I thought the Xbox had "the most powerfull graphics chip on the planet" if it does then it doesn't show it. Dead or Alive 3 looks proper mint but The gamecube graphics look alot more realistic and how can i put it "gamey". Resident Evil looks stunning with the flamethrower,water and all that and those parts are NOT pre-rendered but From what I've seen of the Xbox there's nothing there that my PC can't do!!

Am I the only one who thinks this??

Indeed. Technically, they're pretty average.

I may be wrong, but I *believe* that RE on the GC still uses pre-rendered backgrounds, which is why it looks so good. The GC is only drawing the characters and not the whole game-world.
