Well, it took half an hour of dicking around on forums to figure out how to
stop all the graphical corruption (turn off hardware vertex shaders? /Really/?)
and fix the audio/video sync issues (set CPU affinity to one core only) and
then it turns out to be some weird cutesy game about looking after kids and
taking photos of animals. So far, it has to be said, I'm not seeing what the
fuss was about.

I got bored senseless during some massive stealth section near the end,
so gave up.

Beyond Good and Evil, one of the best games for the Xbox.

For the Gamecube and PS2 as well, right? At least in the States. A quick
check of GameFAQs shows EU release dates, but I've been inclined to
disbelieve those in certain circumstances.

exclusive as far as I can see.
