I'm well aware of where the Gamecube could excel.

But at the end of the day, it's about the games and Xbox had the best looking games.

For the most part. I would say Metroid Prime stood up well, though. A lot of it depended on whether you were on an HDTV and using component cables etc. If you were running everything with composite and on an SDTV, things tended blurred and the differences were pretty small. The PS2, on the other hand, now that was the real stinker. It had the best library of exclusives by a mile, but its games looked so much worse in comparison that whenever there was that rare chance to get a third party game on Gamecube or Xbox, I would always get it for one of those instead. Splinter Cell 1, being a prime offender.

Nah. Even at 480P when you fired up something like Morrowind and saw that Pixel Shader 1.4 effects, you knew you were playing something that couldn't be done on another console.

Remember, we didn't achieve "Photorealism" even at 480P, so there can be a big gulf in visuals.
