so i wanted to get spyhunter for my xbox

i digged the ps2 one, so i figured why not
but then i read this from gamespot

The game actually manages to look worse than the PlayStation 2 version in several important ways.

do i blame paradigm or do i blame my dust collector?

Id blame both!

Here\'s more from gamespot.

..Frame rates fluctuate wildly, and the game becomes an incomprehensible mess if there\'s any quantity of smoke onscreen, which happens whenever you shoot another car on the road. And if you\'re unfamiliar with the Spy Hunter series, rest assured you\'ll shoot a lot of cars...........

..The PlayStation 2 remake of Spy Hunter was a pleasant surprise, as it capably delivered in all the categories that a Spy Hunter fan would expect it to. While it\'s virtually identical to the PlayStation 2 version, the Xbox version is made virtually unplayable by the drab, choppy graphics...

You would think that such an unspectacular(graphically) title such
as this would be easily port to the "so easy to develop for" X-Box and expect it to runs with half the CPU turn on. /sarcasm

Well, it\'s either this or SEGA is sleeping...I wonder who made the port for SEGA.

Lazy developer!

Perhaps it started as PS2 game only, the Xbox being an after thought.  Lazy and didn\'t optimize the code...

That could be it. If the game is that bad, just get the PS2 one.

It\'s like Crazy Taxi...the PS2 version looks like crap...naah from you nooo mm...naahhh:p

?  speak the queens english man!  i have no idea what u just wrote

English....getting....worse..

Its not uncommon around ports.. Especially PC to PS2.

Do you already have it for PS2? If so then why would you put out $50 for an XBox copy also? Personally, I didn\'t like the game all that much. I have it for PS2, but it doesn\'t get much play.

Ah whats this is MM giving someone a roasting for the improper use of the Queens Toung ?

i was ONCE pulled up for the improper use of the Queens Toung, but thats a completly diffrent story and i was nearly thrown in the tower of London.

Damn these Buck Palace Bashes, they give Free Bozze away... that just asking fro trouble .

Greetings from mm\'s house! We primates think that this so called X-box isn\'t looking very good right now! Just look, another game ruined thanks to good o\'l M$. Course, we are all getting used to this same rutine. Btw, spare me a nanner?

*Runs back into cage*

damnit clyde

Err, what does SEGA have to do with Spy Hunter on the Xbox? The game was developed by Paradigm and published by Midway.

How dare you bring SEGA into this? Sacrilege!

Well guess I cant argue with u there...sigh, but after it being on the DC and everyone out playing it no one really wanted to buy it on the PS2 neyways.




P.S. I miss Sega.
