I really loved this game on N64 - it seemed light years ahead of any of fps at the time. Well, there just finishing the sequel on GameCube and the pics look pretty good:

Well I hope they improve on the monsters that "spawn" about 10 yards away from you - YIKES!

Apart from that I found the 1st one really atmospheric. Hope this does for Gamecube what Turok originally did for N64.

Rather disapointing to see all the fog there again, I spose it adds to suspense etc but just makes me think they couldnt get it to run at a decent speed and draw all the landscapes....

The top pics are from gamecube (very little draw-in) and the bottom pics are from x-box (not as colourful and tons of fog)

I leave you to DRAW you own conclusions from that.

Duncan, long story but my writer is playing up. At least I though it was. Updated its firmware, etc.. I've now got 3 images to try, which I'll do tonight for you.

Nick,

No I'm on Telewest Blueyonder and its excellent. Have BT ADSL at work and thats down for an hour very regularly.

Regarding that zip file - it didn't work sadly - takes me to the insert disc screen, but then the regional warning screen comes up. Thanks anyways, would've been great if it had worked.
