Well... they're not going to do custom XBox code where they DID do custom
PS2 vector code (that code isn't nearly as portable as the pipeline code).

It just seems like the Criterion team prefer to develop on the PS2.  But
don't feel bad... you XBox guys have Rare and Bungie (and others).  ;^)

Still... I've been amazed by what people are pulling out the PS2 lately.
Less than two years ago people were saying that games like "God of War",
"Burnout" and "Splinter Cell" would be "impossible" to do on the PS2.

I know it's underpowered compared to the rest of the current generation...
but damn, it's also much older.  It deserves some props for standing up as
well as it has.
