I have all three systems, but my PS2 is getting repaired now, so I rather pick between the Xbox or GameCube versions. Can you please suggest to me which version of the game I should buy? Thank you for your help.

I have the Gamecube version, the only difference is the PS2 and Xbox versions have two extra games to unlock with a Sonic Heroes save, The Ooze and Comix Zone. Not sure if there is a confirmed way to get them without Sonic Heroes.
I don't think there's much different other than the controller and that the PS2 and Xbox have extra stuff. I'd probably go for the Xbox version if I didn't already have it on GC.

Thanks for the info GenDV138. I guess I will get the Xbox version because I loved Comix Zone. I will just rent Sonic Heroes so I can unlock CZ. Thanks again GenDV138.

No prob, I'll probably end up buying the PS2 or Xbox version for Comix Zone, already got Sonic Heroes on GC so most likely I'll just rent it also.

According to XBN, they say that the Xbox version does not run in full screen. Can someone confirm this?

At first it doesn't but you need to press the right joystick.

Better to stick with either the PS2 or Xbox version since they have the 2 genesis games that were missing from the GC version. The PS2 & Xbox versions also have the Game Gear games that were missing from the GC version and put on the GC version Sonic Adventure DX instead.

The XBOX & PS2 version also include the gamegear games.

Ok, thank you Wulfshake, supermariomelee, and LinkinPrime. I will go with the Xbox version then.

You can get The Ooze and Comix Zone without a SH save, but it's a lot of work, so just go for the save method, yeah.
The Xbox and PS2 versions have a nicer interface than the GCN one, and the Xbox version is quicker to save than the PS2 version.
Just FYI, though, it only has six of the Game Gear games that were in SADX, not all twelve.

It's best emulated on the GC, but unfortunately it doesn't have those 2 extra games.
