Did you know that the consel MBs have bigger marbles? MBG has a tiny marble that kind of bugs me.

No. If you compare a MBG with an MBX screenshot, there is a diffrence.

Anyway, can you show me what screenshots have you looked at before you made this assumption? Otherwise I go with that Mike said.

I don't really mind whetever it's bigger or smaller, but notice that in the consule there isn't Tightrope (if the marble's bigger :P coz it'll fall off too easily) or other levels because of the marble being big :PAnyway, can you show me what screenshots have you looked at before you made this assumption? Otherwise I go with that Mike said.

I'm quite 100% sure they're of the same size. The XBox one is in a major close up, so I think it's the same.

Seth, I wasn't disagreeing with you, I was just being a smart alec by saying that for all we know, they could have made every level smaller thus creating the illusion of a larger marble. :-p

Any levels that were removed from MBU are controls-related, meaning that the level was too hard (or not fun) to play with the Xbox controller.Seth, I wasn't disagreeing with you, I was just being a smart alec by saying that for all we know, they could have made every level smaller thus creating the illusion of a larger marble. :-p

Case closed :)

Okay, It is 100% the same size, it's the fact that you got a close up in MBXs screenshot (and camera's point of view in MBGs screenshot, which is high) that makes the MBX marbler look smaller, but in fact it's the same size as the MBG counterpart.Case closed :)

To expand on what Matan said, compare the width of the marble to the width of the white border on the edge of the levels. The marble appears bigger in the Xbox one, but the level is equally larger, which means that the camera just happens to be closer in the Xbox screenshot.
