A Little Turtle Story II
Well... it was a pretty boring day from periods 1 thru 5 at school... well, an exception to period 2 because we do nothing but roam the internet, even though we're supposed to be programming. So what... anyway, period 6 finally hit where this would mark my final class until weekend started. And reluctantly... we received a good 'ol Biology lesson from Mrs. ***** on the order Chela-something (I don't exactly memorize the name of orders and phylums and stuff). Well... if you didn't know, these involve reptiles (get where I'm going here?).
Anyway, as Mrs. ***** presented her notes and reptilian presentation through Powerpoint (which she can get pretty funny with), she put up pics of various types of turtles. Now understand this... I am a diehard turtle fan and I express my love to them in front of everybody (you could say I've almost started a turtle trend over here now). Anyway... as the teacher was at the last page of her Powerpoint presentation, ready to show the last picture, she looked specifically at me and said, "I chose this picture especially for you, Russell (well, my name isn't exactly Ninja Turtle Nincompoop in veracity, ya know)." And within the click of a mouse... a screenshot of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (from the original movie) showed on the huge overhead for everyone to see. Everyone laughed and talked of the time when Turtlemania was first starting out. And everyone looked at me for some reason (I think they expected me to react crazily... which I did

It's a shame how much X-Box can mess up on people. I've heard "things" about it... but I won't complain. As long as they have the Turtles... nothing can go wrong.

And, GC is a lighter more agile system compared to that big clumbsly X-Box. Bigger is SO not better.

Well X-box does have better visuals than GC, but regardless of the HD it still has more loading times. Still it's not any worse than the other ports.

Visuals are the same quality on all three systems.

Looks that way judging from the screen shots, but Xbox has potential for better Graphics than PS2 or GC.

So they say, Karpo, so they say.
(Of course each company will advertise their own system as superior) |

Anyway, from what I've seen, the graphics and stuff are better on Xbox. Such as the Fellowship of the Ring game for Xbox and PS2, the Xbox version looks better.
