Resident Evil 4 - 9.8
How could the graphics possibly get worse going from a peice of shit like gamecube to Ps2? explain.Gamecube• 485MHz custom CPU with 162MHz custom graphics processor • 40MB total memory; 2.6 GB per second memory bandwidth • 12M polygons per second; texture read bandwidth 10.4 GB per second PS2• 128-bit CPU • 32MB total memory; 3.2GB per second memory bandwidthok so i couldnt find the exact correlating stats, but as much as i like ps2, games just look better on gamecubethat's the gist!The real secifications..

Though, If you ask me, Ps2 Is still better than gamecube. They are pretty close though. If Ps2 hadn't based thier chip on the ps1 console they would be right behind xbox..ps2 has the best controller hands down.
Too bad the controller is a peice of shit, Same goes for Xbox....Hey! I happen to like the GameCube controller!I am going to be picking this up sometime soon! I had to hunt down some money from people who had borrowed. So far, I'm about 40 dollars off. 
Agreed that PS2 > GameCube, but it's all I have now =p

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- No bob you dont get it, Nintendo has sucked since the bismal 64, I wont tolerate it on my planet! rofl, I bought that gamecube just for star wars rogue squadron 2 + 3, after that I bought metroid. Good games but I selled it for 80€ cuz I got bored of it and gc supports not much good games in my opinion.( still got xb and ps2 left )
