I'd say Cubivore, Cubivore's gameplay is an action/adventure game with a few RPG elements in it. The purpose of Cubivore is to kill the Killer Cubivore's chronies, while at the same time attaining different mutations for your Cubivore. The ultimate goal is to attain 100 mutations, so that your Cubivore can become powerful enough to produce an offspring capable of fighting the Killer Cubivore. Thus, Cubivore is a game that is meant to somewhat represent the natural selection of humanity's evolution. (for more info, check out Wiki)
Not exclusive, but Killer 7 on the GC is better rhen the PS2 version

tbh, the DC can play anything, the only thing is that it won't look as good. It can play DOOM3, just with no bump mapping and a much lower poly count. It could even play half-life 2, just with crappier graphics, and less intense physics. And considering the only RE4 really needs to be honest is something to do the good graphics. Considering there really aren't any intense calculations (since there is like almost no physic effects whatsoever).

Well, nowadays at least, the computer chips (between ATi and nVidia) are pretty equal and can be pretty much compared with clocks and size/type of ram. Currently nVidia is in the lead since they have the 8800GTXs out! Those things are fuckin' nutz. 1 foot long!
hehe yeh i used to have a Quadro 750 GXL that was a bad boy!
full length

now I jus have a 6800gt im gonna get the next 'equivelant' to the GT as I was readin up and the 7000 series of midrange cards actually didnt have the same horspower as the 6800GT so I waited, having said that - I dont really play my PC much anymore apart from emus :s *guilt*

I'd just get a mid range 8 series when they come out. and if you have PCIe, a 7800 should only be like 150...baphomet_irl wrote:metaleggman wrote:baphomet_irl wrote:yeh back in the 'olden days' it was always like that nVidia had more 'horsepower' usually, but a still frame of a RADEON usually looked better, but could never run as fast

well, tbh, SLi is a bit overrated. It does help, but only if you need the anti-aliasing ( as that's really the only good thing about it) for a giant monitor and at a high resolution. I wouldn't buy two gfx cards unless I had a really nice monitor, as it really doesn't improve the performance for the price...baphomet_irl wrote:metaleggman wrote:I'd just get a mid range 8 series when they come out. and if you have PCIe, a 7800 should only be like 150...baphomet_irl wrote:metaleggman wrote:baphomet_irl wrote:yeh back in the 'olden days' it was always like that nVidia had more 'horsepower' usually, but a still frame of a RADEON usually looked better, but could never run as fast

I have PCIe (unfortunately only the full speed on one of my slots) so im hoping to wait for cheap GX2 style cards, if they ever come out :p

I know, I'm the game Nazi. By that reasoning the following games should not be on your list. They are great games (except that one that doesn't exist) but a few additions or subtractions doesn't make it different in a whole. Putting Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes is fine, because that game was built specifically for that system and has yet to appear on another system in that form, as with Resident Evil. I'm sure you all understand why I feel these games should be taken out.
Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess (Wii)
Resident Evil 4 (PS2)
Skies of Arcadia Legends (DC)
Sonic Adventure 2 Battle (DC)
Wario Ware (Why is this here?)
Wario Ware Inc. (GBA)
When you use the word "exclusive" in the gaming industry, it doesn't mean which version is better. If you're going to say that Sonic Adventure 2 Battle is a better game than the DC version, thus deserving the exclusivity, then take out RE4 and Twilight Princess. They have both been done on other systems with more content than just added multiplayer features.
End rant.

with this one you are correct ofcource. But part of me feels it is still best to have it remain, as there is no PS2 or Xbox versions... I guess I still don't have my head into the newest gen systems, its taken off.

you bring up a good point with these, I have added them as a "best version" list in a new topic

typo mistake, thanks for catching it

I personally consider handhelds to be a completly different genre, and don't consider having this on the list a prob
ran across a few on wikipedia
