GC.
Faster loading, better textures, better control.

I picked up the PS2 version at gamestop.
1) My Gamecube is connected via crappy A/V cables, PS2 has component.
2) I figure the HD Loader will equal the load times between the two versions.
3) Big mistake. I should have gotten the GC version (Doh) There is some serious lagging going on when there are several enemies and they are in large rooms with heavy draw distances. Although majority confrontations seem to be one on one, sometimes the heavy areas can be annoying. Although the slow-motion kind of makes the aiming cooler at times :lol
4) Great game. God I love when Con Smith says "fuck you" "fuck you" "fuck you" after critical hitting three enemies in a row :lol

EB is up stairs, Babbage's down, yeah, you are right. It's Westwood Southlake though. It's kinda like people still refer to it (the area) as Merrillville, even though it is Hobart and they annexed it years ago. Look at your receipts sometimes, it'll still say Merrillville

But, but...Maxim gave it 2/5!

"If you've ever seen Jessica Simpson attempt to do a load of laundry, you know the pain of seeing something beautiful move so awkwardly that it becomes ugly. If not, you can get the same sensation playing Killer 7. While it has an amazing cell-shaded, anime-influenced look thats both stylish and striking, it also has totally unnatural and unnecessarily complicated controls that make it impossible to play. Don't toy with it for more than a couple of minutes unless you want to get continually frustratedand murderedafter each move."
Impossible to play? Why Maxim, that sounds like a challenge! Dare I be so arrogant as to assume I could do better than the reviewer who "toyed with it" for a couple of minutes? Actually, I notice he didn't say HE toyed with it: it's not like they actually play the games they review.

Musashi Wins!
FLAWLESS VICTOLY!
That review is lame. I'm loving it. It's not too hard (on normal) to say the least...but it is enthralling.

Like Capcom always seems to do, the JPN and NA versions are different.
Nothing as drastic as DMC3, but in the NA version of Killer 7, there is no auto-aim to the critical target point.
Also it's slightly harder in general. As in --- in fewer hits you die.
"Fuck you" "fuck you" "fuck you" "fuck you!!!"
haha...god I'm easily amused lol

I got the GC version today... initial impressions were a little skeptical, but by the end of the first level, I was really grooving on the game's style and play. It's way too early to give final impressions, but so far, it's pretty great. The gameplay isn't as limited as I had feared... possibly my years of playing point & click adventures have made me immune to feeling I'm not interacting enough with a game though.
