TheBardsSong said: What makes the Gamecube being more powerful than the Xbox argument really funny is that even it's successor's hardware is only barely as/more powerful than the original Xbox, and even then the Xbox beats the Wii in a number of areas. Saying the Gamecube is more powerful than the Xbox is like saying it's more powerful than the Wii. |
The funny thing is, the top GameCube games shown in this thread really do outshine the vast majority of games on the Wii which further emphasises the point about developer effort. X-box was the easiest of all the consoles last gen to develop for as it was essentially a PC and it shows in a large number of games with impressive visuals. Gamecube took far more effort by comparison and considerring the small market share it had, few developer were willing to put much effort into the machine. This shows as it's only a few games where the developers have put effort in (like RS2) which show off its visual prowess and are easily on par with the X-box titles.
