Have you all noticed the abserlutely astonishing graphics on the game cube? Developers must have spent bloody ages making these games, on Turok Revelution, each bush is individually done and on wave race, the water has the exact reflection. This is truely zeeming ahead of PS2.

My local WHSmiths don't even sell Xbox products (which is a good thing) so that means WHSmiths don't like the Xbox.

P.s. they don't hate MS because they still sell PC games.

I have traversed the Seven Seas, crossed mighty deserts, fought deadly beasts and stood in a queue for an hour and 25 minutes......and still no shop had an X-Box left.

Noooooooooo

Doshin!!

Resident Evil has stunning graphics yes, and the water effects are superb, a hell of a lot better than Doshin's.

BUT, when you put the camera underwater in Doshin the effects are breathtaking, it's the first game I've seen to actually make it look the way it does in real life when you stick your head under the water and look out.

You've really got to see it.

Starfox adventures does look brilliant. I don't think that it will last quite as long as everyone is saying, but it should still be the ube's foirst epic. I doubt it will last until September, when Zelda comes out though...

Well since nobody else has mentioned it I might as well... Starfox Adventures has god graphics AND lasts for ages, I'm suprised nobody mentioned it?

Ported games are never the best games unless they get a complete makeover (like Virtua Striker 3 or Resident Evil for example)

Those games only have bad graphics cos they've been ported from PS2. If the developers would've bothered they could've made 'em better.
