He likes to come in here to tell us he's got a better everything (sound system, games, etc).

Then he gets annoyed when we don't care.

Out of interest Alco, what the hell are you doing in this forum? You have a constant passion for just saying Nintendo's best games are rubbish, and that the XBox constantly outperforms it in every way, so why don't you bagger off to the Microsoft forum?

Or are the three people in there to much for you?

Here's news for you my friend... that isn't pre-rendered :)

Resident Evil 0 uses incredible detail upon the backdrops and the character animations are a thousand times better than the animations used in splinter cell. Yes they have cheated by using pre-rendered backdrops but hey it does look better than Splinter Cell. The fact you are trying to convey is that some of the graphical touches uses more polygon pushing moments than the Gamecube can handle and yes the graphics will be scaled down although slightly. If the Gamecube version has been in the works for a while then the game could make use of the Cube's special effects that make it technically superior to the X-box with the wave effects, the heat effects and particulary for Splinter Cell the laser effects.

The graphics look highly similar to the X-box version even if it has been downgraded and they are still better than the impressive looking PS2 game. The game is also coming out on the GBA.

And Ed bear or whatever, just to annoy you, Splinter Cell on the Gamecube automatically features the extra levels you can download from x-box live plus some.

so :P Oh and Metroid Prime is far from bland you idiot.

So what? Dolby Digital isn't anything special. My point is that the GameCube will pull off Splinter Cell just as well as the X-Box did.

ok, and this isnt a dig, but what to you is good grahics then?

and, as i have said time and time again its not the graphics its the gameplay.

SC has bucket loads of that!
also, how is the GC gonna handle the dolby digital sound?
um, it snot is the short answer

I've seen Splinter Cell. A lot. I've seen how it plays. I've seen how it just looks like any other third person clone of Rainbow Six (which was never that good in the first place) and how the graphics aren't really anything to shout about.

and, prey tell, where are these shots of Resi 4?
ive only seen a pre rendered video and thats on the capcom JP site!

and yes metroid prime is plain, the levels arent that detailed, yes they are vast and they have lots to explore, but SC is the most graphically advanced game i have ever seen on a console.
You have seen Screenshots etc, i own the game...
