I forgot to add fighting, so be sure to add that to your answer.  Hey, I\'ve seen some people post that Splinter Cell is better on XBOX, but I think the PS2 version is excellent.  What\'s so much better on XBOX?

The graphics are a little better, and the gameplay is more challenging.  Though some people disliked the trial and error that seemed to occur.

Well, graphics is understandable since PS2 can\'t compete with XBOX\'s graphical capabilities, but what do you mean when you say that the gameplay is more challenging on XBOX?  Wouldn\'t be pretty much exactly the same on both?

[Kurt Angle]

1st Person Shooter / Action = MOH Frontline / 007 Nightfire
3rd Person Shooter / Action = MGS2
Racing = GRAN TURISMO 3
Sports = WWE Shut Your Mouth

My favourite game overall is GTA : Vice City

1st Person Shooter - TimeSplitters

3rd Person Shooter - SOCOM/MGS2

Racing - GT3

They changed things like enemy placement, and the # of enemies etc.  And as such the game became much easier.

I recommend you read the GameSpot review on it.  Though, it\'s probably gone Complete subscriber only by now.

Pfft..

You\'ve left some games off, I know.

Where\'s Klonoa, for example?  Or how about Sky Gunner?  And Rez!  AND MAXIMO!

Sometimes I think you just want people to think you hate your PS2 more than you do

Yeah, I\'ll have to check out that Gamespot review.  I also just found today that the Splinter Cell site now has all the new features listed for PS2 and GC, so now I know what those are.  They sound pretty good actually.  But what I don\'t understand is why they would make the gameplay less challenging.  There\'s no reason they have to is there?  Does it have something to do with memory or processing capabilities?  That would be my guess.

Bobo, I forgot those.


<--feels bad now.

Add Rez, Maximo and ..maybe..Sky Gunner. It was a iffy one.
