This isnt about the release or how good or anything i just want to know whats going on.

I looked at pics of it before all the stuff about it going multi-foramt and i must say the graphics looked amazing.
But in the latest NOM the graphics just look undetailed, is this becuase it has gone to all consoles so its had to down it with the graphics?
Or is it something else?

Well, if you go to the official site, it's quite clear it's a GameCube exclusive. That's made my day!

Check out the explicit language video, looks like the game will be 18 rated.

Well I don't know what videos you watched, because the ones I've seen look awesome. For anyone interested, follow this pretty long link:

NOM are keen to point out that it WILL be a gamecube exclusive.

I dont think the graphics are that bad (apart from the one on the lower left of page 57 in NOM), and screenshots really do not do the games justice.
Just look at the mario sunshine screenshots in magasines...

I thought it was exclusive too, but people are saying it isnt any more.

As for sreen shots yeah it will be better running but the new shots not being as good as the old ones must mean its got worse.

As where did you see the pics?

What i hate is the white building are all white, no stains or bumps or anything.

I've just checked out some screenshots, and while they do seem a little pixillated compared to the likes of Meteroid, I still they look all right. I mean they at least look better than Turok.

Besides, I always find screenshots do games no justice; it's when you see the game in action when you'll be able to notice how good or bad the game looks.

I noticed that too. I was really impressed with the graphics at first, but they seem to have gone nothing but downhill. And I thought it was a GameCube exclusive?
