Is there a site that compares different versions of the same games?

So you know which version of a game is the one to buy, when the game comes out on any combination of GameCube, PlayStation 2 or Xbox? And says what is missing/added from each version?

For example:

Spy Hunter (GameCube missing some FMV's, and say exactly which ones)

SSX Tricky (GCN missing some making of features)

Medal of Honor: Frontline (GCN and Xbox added multiplayer)

Dragon's Lair 3D (GameCube (and PS2?) seems to have added interviews and music videos)

Outlaw Golf (easier to control on GCN due to octagonal analog things)

So, is there a way to find out EVERY SINGLE DIFFERENCE on every game that's on multiple systems? I don't care about PC games.

Such a site would be nice, but unfortunately I haven't seen much. Usually you have to read reviews of all three and extrapolate on your own. It would be hard for a reviewer to play through all three (or four) versions of a game and compare them objectively.

Well, one solution would be to do a user-maintained list right here in this forum. Similar to Flay's "Release Dates" thread. One person volunteers to maintain the list, and the rest of us post to it as we get new information. Certainly, marioxb's list at the top of this post is a good start.
