How smooth is this game!
Wow... played it today... my manager managed to get a copy through his contacts.. all I can say it that it runs so well and feels beautiful, a real treasure to play, we only had the first fully finished level/stage on disk however it was clear that if they didn't drop the depth in the later levels than this game will be an easy Halo beater (I wasn't a supreme fan of Halo).
Well. Its my first reason to own an XBox. And I will be getting a copy for free... as well as TimeSplitters2.
*burps and runs away*
Well done Splinter Cell.

Tony Hawks 4 - I will wait for Tony Hawks 8. Release 2003? :-D
Indiana Jones And The Emperor's Tomb - Worth a look, if you like puzzles and have a LOT of time on your hands.

Or.. just erm.. one.
Splinter Cell.
Blinx is crap, seriously trying to be something it can never be, the developers and producers were tripping when they created it.

I was really looking forward to it, now I am not wasting my money.

You never know....
TS2 runs best on GC. Something to do with the engine being developed for the Cube then ported?
Meh. I don't care. Splinter Cell is very good... not my kinda perfect game but still. A reason to turn the Xbox back on.
