There's a Die hard game coming to Gamecube. It was long thought to be an exclusive, but now it seems it may be later ported to PS2.

Apparently it'll be an FPS, with plenty of tricky puzzles. You'll have to take people prisoner too, by sneaking up on them, using a 'stealth mode' which you can access at the press of the button.

There's some discussion about the level of violence in the game though, as the publisher feels it should be no more than a 'teen' title, rather than 'mature' given the perceived market of the Gamecube.

A Die Hard game could so rule if done properly. Or it could suck.

Actually, the title had already been confirmed for PC about a month beforehand.

Doesn't it depend on what the bear's been eating? I mean, if it ate poisoned berries all the time, then ate poo with poisoned berry in it, surely it would get poorly again. If it was a family of bears and one of them ate poisoned berries before making other bears in the clan eat it's poo, then the other bears would probably get ill, but I can imagine the poison from the poisoned berry being absorbed into the original bear's digestive sytem so the other bears would just be eating poo. Now it comes down to a case of "Does the bear know what's poison?". I personally think that bears are way too thick to understand the complexities of arsenic, so they'd probably eat anything that smells of fish. They probably wouldn't eat the berries because they would know they were poisonous. The only way to see a poisoned bear is to go in the wild and poison one (not recommended, they get very angry), or to go to the zoo and poison one in captivity from afar. Either way you'd probably get arrested by Benton Fraser, the Mountie. Dogs eat their own poo on a regular basis, but bears probably weigh about 15 times more than a doggy, so you can scale up the poo to 15 times the amount that a dog excretes. The bear would probably get indegestion, instead of a proper illness. That's why I donated all my money to the "Alkaseltzer for Bears Society", and you can too! Just go to "Bearseatpooandgetillsowesavethem.com/poobear.html" and give them your credit card details and your home address and the keys to your car/house. Happy bear healing!

Die Hard on the PSX was great, so yeah, if it's made well then the PS2 and GC versions could be excellent.
