Anyone heard any more info about which version is better xbox or gamecube? I've already read that the ps2 version has choppy frame rates and missing animation (still probably a great game if all you have is a ps2 though) but no one seems to know which is the better of the 2 newer formats. I am so keen to get my mitts on this game but having both systems don't know which to get and also just plain interested in which is better anyway. Acclaim themselves obviously aren't a good source as they claim practically all three are identical when clearly they are not as the ps2 version is struggling. Anyone seen any e3 comments on this game?

Actually, it was 99% honesty and 1% joke...

It's true though you could fit an Xbox in Jade, come to think of it you could fit a PS2,GBA,GC,PC, Land Rover, Monster Truck and preety much everything else in that big horse like mouth of hers.

Another thing...

If you leave some monkeys in a room with a typewriter, they'll eventually produce Shakespeare.

If Microsoft had left a team of monkeys alone in a room with a pair of scissors and some sticky-back plastic, the X-Box controller might have even been half as good as the Gamecube one.

Dark Mark, we're here trying not to insult the X-Box forumers, just to sort out one annoying chimp.

P.S. The X-Box somewhat RESEMBLES Jade from Big Brother. Go figure!

If I may, I'd like to sum up why the X-Box is NOT the best console. To do this, I shall compare it to THE best console, the Nintendo Gamecube.

- To physically move an X-Box, you need a forklift truck, whereas to move a Gamecube you need an arm, fingers and an apposable thumb. The majority of people own an arm, fingers and an apposable thumb, whereas not many people own a forklift truck, thus making the X-Box somewhat difficult to get home after you buy it.

- Expanding on the fact that X-Box is, well, huge... is it really true that you can fit a christmas tree (standard size), a newborn baby AND Jade from Big Brother inside it? Oh and is it true that while Gamecube's design was conjured up by a talented and skilled team of designers, X-Box needed 10 architects to design it?

- Right then. X-Box has DVD playing capabilities. All well and good, but there are a few problems with that.

1) In this hi-tech day and age, many people already own a DVD player.
2) You need to fork out 25 odd quid for the DVD remote! Geez!!! If this isn't the most blatant money making scheme from a company that is already the most money-hungry team of cash-*****s in existance, I don't know what is.
3) Games console. See the words "DVD player" in there? No. And is there really a need for a games console to play DVD's? No.

I rest my case.
