It's not like I started gaming this generation, or last for that matter to get cozy with HD. I've been a gamer since 1989... and my favorite game of all time is Castlevania:SOTN which is a 2D, non HD game.

Anywho, enough about me...here are some stats for you about PS2 VS Gamecube in black and white which everyone can understand.

CPU - PS2 300mhz VS Gamecube 485MHZ
Graphics Processor - 147 mhz PS2 VS 162 MHZ Gamecube
RAM - 32 MB PS2 VS 40MB Gamecube
Memory Bus Bandwidth - 3.2 GB PS2 VS 2.6 Gamecube

There are other factors and advantages to both system but you will notice that most of the basic specs favor gamecube by only 15 - 30%.

Now compare the specs for 360(which is the weaker on the PS3/360 side) to the Wii(if you can find them as Nintendo doesn't really talk about them much) ...the difference is usually 200-300%. Most 360 games are in 720p resolution which alone is pretty taxing compared to 480p Wii does...and still Wii can not compare. I have them both...I've seen same games running on both... RE5 as we know it thus far is not possible. Maybe Resident Evil 5 Chronicles few years later...

If you think clockspeed has anything to do with how powerful consoles are you have a lot to learn my friend.
