LOL, not to me it isn't, best graphics, by far the best sounds, best controller (which is debatable as people have different preferences). As far as garphics and sound go I will have the best version.

I'm sure it will be converted well to the PS2, but I agree that it probably won't touch the GameCube and X-Box versions.

Yeah, its probably a different Buffy game. As for splinter Cell, its just confusing at times because I hear Ninties saying its coming to GC, then I read a mag like the latest XBM and it says that its still exclusive to X-Box.

In a way I'm surprised they'd bother with a PS2 version as by the looks of things, it simply wouldn't be able to handle the game and if they take out all these elements, it'll be like a different poor mans version of the game it should be.

I'm certain Splinter Cell's out on GC (what you say with the X-Box mags and SC happened with the GC mags and Die Hard) as there's been screenshots and info in the official mag. It's out on PS2 too.

As for Buffy, a future GameCube release is planned, but a long time after the X-Box one, so you've got nothing to worry about. Maybe it's another Buffy game?

The game would have to be "dumbed" down in a sense if it was released on PS2.

5.1 taken out, Graphics downgraded, Loading Times would be increased due to lack of hard drive

Yeah I don't think the PS2 could handle Splinter Cell. I remember Hideo Kojima saying that he wanted to use one of the cameras in the game for MGS, but the PS2 couldn't handle it.

So if Splinter Cell does arrive on PS2, I doubt it'll touch the X-Box game.

At the moment splinter cell is only on xbox but they are developing a lesser down version for ps2. And Buffy aint goin to gc, sorry to dissapoint.

I've always beleived its an Xbox Exlcusive, it might come out on the PS2...

Buffy is definately an Xbox Exclusive.
