Timesplitters Future Perfect

The xbox is the fastest console here and few giga bytes memory hard drive and can copy music and store it. It can 50.000 blocks of memory but I got nearly 10.000 blocks of memory and still got 50.000 blocks memory. It's true I tell ya

SO practically its a PC?.... not trying to sound bias but it is as it is.
Oh and Halo 1 and 2 I heard are alright but mostly in the Multiplayer like with Timesplitters except GC owners don't have the Halo series.

Depends actually. Your comparing a custom Pentium 3(xbox), with a Custom G3 proccessor(GC)

No one can say that the GameCube has slow loading times.....
Apparently the GameCube's texture abbility lays the smackdown on the Xbox's..... something like 8 for GC, 4 for Xbox, 1 for PS2...
Technical dudes, come confirm this.

Importing has never made much sense to me...Guess thats cause I'm american.

The Halo/Timesplitters comparisons are a bit daft IMO.

Okay, they're both FPS', granted, but Timesplitters has extra challenge modes, a map maker and a lot of unlockables. Whilst this doesn't necessarily make it better or worse, it does make it rather fundamentally rather different to Halo.

The improved mapmaker has me sold, personally.

i dont know what all the fuss about HALO 2 is??? YES Ive played it, with a friend coz he has it, so 2 player was OK but SSBM million times better, and Metroid Prime 2 i reckon its a bit better then Halo2 in multiplayer, only good thing in HALO2 is that more different weapons and bigger areas but not anythin special. ONLINE c'mon over rated, only good thing about online is i can swear ant anybody and me and my friends was all bit drunk So if any Americans out there if you were playing HALO2 online on Monday 7th SORRY! that was fun coz i swore at people hahahahah
but the all online thing its good if you dont have any friends but its abit over rated and so is HALO2 i had much more fun playing MP:Echoes!

The Xbox can render four texture layers per pass (per frame, essentially), whilst the GameCube renders a mighty eight. I'm quite certain that the GameCube has the edge in some other graphical departments. Not to sure though. Certainly, Microsoft's wildy varying claims of 80,000,000 polygons to (I've heard them quote this kind of number too) 120,000,000 polygons is pure making-up-the-numbers.

These kind of figures were gained in simple polygon tests, where nothing but polygons were being rendered, thus the machine could throw it's entire weight behind pushing those triangles. The GameCube's polygon count has always remained constant, and takes into account real-world conditions. That's taking into account everything the machine has to do in order to run a game, including textures, sound, graphical routines, the whole works. All the things that make a game were taken into account when testing the GC's polygon pushing abilities, basically.

The figure Nintendo came up with is 12,000,000 polygons per second. Whilst this sounds insignificant to the Xbox's (and even the PS2's) highly fraudulent figures, it's what developers actually have at their fingertips when they are making a fully-functional game. After-all, games are not just un-textured, un-animated polygon displays. It has been estimated that, under real-world condidions, the Xbox can only manage around 10,000,000 polygons.

GameCube graphical potential > Xbox graphical potential

Unfortunately, i wont be getting any new games until LoZ. I have a big clog of new games that i havent beat yet. I think i bought TS2 for $30 a year after it came out, so i'll probibly do the same. TS2 is still a blast, and i have to do everything all over because my save file got corrupt somehow!!! DAMN!!!

TP2 had a great fun multiplayer, and TP3 obviusly is going to have an even better one so yes i'm definitly looking forward to getting this.

Slightly better yes Edge says once again the Single player story mode is poor and the multiplayer and challenges are the best part and so it got an 8 from them.

Thanks for the comfirmation Oni..... Looking at Halo 2 and Metroid Prime 2... I'd say Metroid looks cleaner.

Must be running at over 60 fps most times... Halo 2 slows down quite a bit though doesnt it?

Why has no one properly clocked the two machines against each other?
It' would be interesting to see the outcome. Do the same with the Dreamcast and PS2.

But 8 from Edge is a 93% from some magazines. Yeah, I'm looking at you, NOM...

Thank you linkman, yes it was in a very rant style vain but I was trying to save him cash and hassle - if I had given him advice, in a ranting manner, for RE4 (and that comment was a joke, though looking back that's not obvious - y'know the whole me not liking importing thing) then I'd be out of line - but I didn't and I'm not Oni-Ninja

But he's paying
