perfect dark is the best N64 game ever, except for ZELDA 1. ZElda 2 is also cool because it is on a golden cartridge. Back to PD... BANG

Well naturally i missed out some of the unknowns like Donkey Kong games, Giftipa and then there is a whole load of mystery titles that HAL, Silicon Knights and other Nintendo teams are currently working on. What will Retro do after metroid? Are Silicon working on Too Human and could HAL be bringing back Earthbound? We'll see.

I was saying that you've missed out a fair few exclusives on top of that! But I can't be bothered to list them, as that list is brilliant on it's own.

I had to be very careful not to include multi-format games.

I'd love to rave on bout Mafia and True Crime etc...

Tell it Dringo!

It's also worth noting that you've missed a fair few games out, and in tests, the GameCube has been proven to match what the X-Box can do in terms of polygons.

First of all, I've seen screenshots for Splinter Cell alongside screenshots for Resident Evil and it doesn't take a rocket scientist to realise Resident Evil is MUCH better. Splinter Cell looks quite dodgy, and even if it did win best graphics at E3 (which I haven't heard anything about), it's multi-format! Secondly, X02 is an X-Box games show. They're hardly going to compare games from other formats are they?

Fair enough, that's your loss.

You blatently haven't you one sided biased fool.

I have taken an interest in X-box cause of Rare, Microsoft are enemy number 1 to me i hate them more than any company in the bussiness... i just like Rare. Nintendo's line up is always kept secret as opposed to Sony's and Microsoft's as Nintendo take so long to make games.

How can you even consider Resident Evil or in particular Resident Evil 0 to not looking as good as Splinter Cell? Yes the X-box can push more polygons but there are far more polygons in Resident Evil characters than splinter cells cause the backgrounds are pre-rendered. And due to the new real time rendering the backdrops do look real, and cause of that the game looks far better than anything on the X-box till someone does the same.

Now just for my ammusment lets take a look at some of these awesome Exclusive titles expected on the Cube that you have misfortunatly overlooked.

Adventure game:

Eternal Darkness, Resident Evil, Starfox Adventures, Final Fantasy Chronicals, The Legend of Zelda, Skies of Arcadia legend, Phantasy Star online, Lost Kingdoms, Phantasy Star Online Card Battle,

First Person Shooters:

Best Version of Timesplitters 2, Die Hard, Metroid Prime. (although i'd love to mention Return to castle Wolfenstein, Jedi Outcast, Medal of Honor, Ghost Recon and XIII).

Third person shooters:

Star Wars: Bounty Hunter, Resident Evil 1,2,3,Code Veronica and 4, Star Wars Rogue squadron 2, Starfox.

Multiplayer games:

Mario Tennis, Super Smash Brothers, Super Monkey Ball, Mario Golf, Mario Kart,

Puzzle games:

Super Monkey Ball 2, Zoocube, super Monkey Ball.

Sports games:

Beach Spikers, NBA Courtiside, Mario Tennis, Mario golf.

Platformers:

Wario's World, Mario Sunshine... YOU DO NOT BEAT NINTENDO AT THE GENRE THEY INVENTED!, Sonic Adventure 2, Sonic Adventure, Sonic Mega Collection.

Stratagy:

Pikmin, Doshin the Giant.

Fighting:

Bloody roar: Primal Fury, Bloody Roar 4, Super Smash Brothers melee, Wrestlemania X8. (no serious beat em up will beat Soul Calibur 2 though).

Racing games:

Mario Kart, 1080: white storm, Wave Race: Blue Storm, F Zero GC,
