    Grow up and get an XBox. This game sucks on GC compared to the Ps2, and the Xbox makes it look like pure crap. I love Zelda and RE4 as much as anyone, but you guys really need to get a Next-Gen by Sony or MIcrosoft. Theya re better systems. Who cares about touching? I care about realistic graphics, and playing beautiful game. Nintendo, and the Gamecube turned the best game to the year so Grow up and get an XBox.

    RE4 has proved that the cube can hold its own against the best of the competition, so why the shoddy PS2 port? If you are in the 10% of xbox owners that have live then get that version instead. It's good that 3rd party titles are availible on the cube but at least make them comparrible with unique features as in Soul Caliber 2.

    Chaos Theory is the game that the original Splinter Cell was meant to deliver: a tight play experience within a trusty framework, one more of enjoyment than irritation, and a game that's no longer exclusively for fans of repeated reloading. [Apr 2005, p.97]

    Despite the inclusion of new gadgets and stunning visuals, the series is starting to decompose; playing the same thing over and over is beginning to wear a little thin. It's a good job the multiplayer experience continues to blossom. [Apr 2005, p.90]

    In all things small and epic, from the palpable graininess of the game's predominantly poorly lit environments, to the endlessly thrilling second installment of the spies vs. mercenaries online competitions, Theory does not disappoint. [May 2005, p.44]
