After Getting Splinter Cell on xbox and thinking to myself what a sweet game, it never crossed my mind that the PS2 would be getting a version (cube as Well). When I found out about this i was well Pissed off. The Hype and the PS2 fanboys going mental over this was getting me annoyed. Then the latest PS2 mag (official) hit my friend a PS2 fanboy imediatly read the review proclaming a perfect 10/10

shit this must be good then as good as the xbox (xbox mag official 9.7)

Upon playing it what hit me was the graphical quality... Holy crap!... This was one Fucken Butt Ugly Game. It was like taking the Ugly sister to the Ball, FrameRate good if you like it lagging, ubove all else wow good shadow effects i thought the xbox version had block shadows, but crap once again the PS2 shows it's Sub standard power.

This game Got 10/10, it is obvious that the game will sell, however i think that the reviewers made some grave judements
as PS2 gamers will get a raw deal here

"It look almost as good as the Xbox version, though with a blander colour palate" Shit that was an understatment.

Now we wait for the Cube version.... any time now.....

PS2 always gets the short end of the stick with multi consle games with a few exceptions (need for speed 2)

obviously the xbox version would be graphically superior to the ps2 version. u shoulda expected that the moment SC was announced on the ps2.

the fact that it got 10/10 in an official PS2 mag says 2 things to me:
1. being an official PS2 mag, they're obviously biased
2. being an official PS2 mag, they only compare PS2 games with other PS2 games and not cross console.

so the 10/10 rating doesn't mean its better than the xbox ver. it just means that its a great game compared to other PS2 games.

i agree. and ive seen screen shots of it for the ps2 and i knew not to expect much of it.
