GameCube (yes I still play it a lot, so many awesome games, all my Resident Evil games are on this, plus F-Zero, which may still be my favorite racing game of all time.

I was playing F-Zero GX the other day. I'm still greatly impressed with that title's graphics.

Honestly, I'm much happier with F-Zero X overall in the graphics department. As far as the menu screens go, GX looks more "polished" than X, but the final product still comes off as a cluttered, dull, and overdone. As for the racing, the mechanics seem the same, but the visual presentation in both the racing HUD and the track designs seem bland and claustrophobic somehow. You could honestly characterize X's approach as more "gay" in terms of color palette, but somehow that seems to be more congruous to the F-Zero series' gameplay style than GX's more "metal" take. Speaking of "metal", GX's music was piss-awful.

Tangental, I know, but I have an un-natural crush on F-Zero X.

EDIT: Forgot to mention that I have the N64, GameCube, Wii & XBOX plugged into the TV with a switchbox or, in the Wii's case, plugged into the TV's front AV ports.

EDIT: Wrong system. The Xbox has component cables. My bad.

Anyway, what I should have asked was if you ever played Goldeneye or Perfect Dark on an HDTV with the 16:9 settings?

I have F-Zero X on my N64. That game doesn't compare to GX in any way as far as graphics and sound are concerned. I like the metal-sounding soundtrack on GX too. It fits nicely with a high-speed high-energy racing game.

I don't have a HDTV so, I can't say what playing GoldenEye or Perfect Dark on one is like...
