question about games released concurrently for xbox and xbox360

is there a difference? or is it just the same game in two different boxes, so that owners of both systems will feel comfortable buying them?

because my husband beat call of duty 2 on xbox, and we played the 360 demo, and he didn't notice a difference other than better speed and fluidity. how about gun and king kong? are they the same? anything new that i'm missing on legacy titles? halo2 adventure mode doesn't look any different...

just curious.

I don't think any game that's on both systems will be any different other than graphical differences.

I believe Gun is the same on the PC as it is on the Xbox 360.

There are some EA Sports games that lack features in the XBox 360 version (such as team management modes and such). That's about all I know.

oh sh*t...you're right. How could I forget considering that was the biggest gripe I have with the EA games...

Call of Duty 2 on the PC & XBOX 360 are the same and the PS2 & XBOX version of Call of Duty are the same from what i checked out at game places.

Call of Duty 2: Big Red One (Xbox/Ps2/Gamecube) is a sequel to Call of Duty: Finest Hour.

Call of Duty 2 (Xbox360/PC) is a sequel to Call of Duty (PC).

Basically the console versions (until the Xbox360) were all side projects loosely based on the PC version of part 1. (Finest Hour + Big Red One)

Call of Duty 2 for the 360 is the same as the PC version of CoD2 which is a true sequel to CoD1 (PC) and is a totally different game than Finest Hour/Big Red One.

That being said...CoD2 is the best one of all of them. (IMO) I've beaten the PC one and I loved every minute of it.

As for some of the others...
Gun is the same (with slightly better graphics). Same for King Kong. Same for Tony Hawk's American Wasteland. Same for all of the EA games (which removed some features on the 360).
