Just got gamecube

[Xenn]

Jet black, 2 controllers, memory card, and Super Smash Bros. Melee.

It's pretty damn cool.

[Chruser]

You should tell us WHY it's so good, compared to playstation 2 for instance (if you can :)).

[Xenn]

1) It's made by a good company.
2) There are a lot of good series' (zelda, mario, metroid, etc)
3) It's 100 bucks cheaper then ps2.
4) It's really portable.

I'm not saying its better then ps2, but its sure as hell better then Xbox.

[tacoX]

If your 6 yrs old, you would like this system. Any older, hell no :D

[Xenn]

You just don't value the classics..

[Chruser]

I would say like Xenn.
I'd rather get a gamecube to play more "classic" games, while I save all the "realistic" games for my pc. Yes, emulators is an option, and don't ask me how painful it would be to play a mario game on my computer. :P

[GameCube]

I agree with Xenn. GameCube is a lot better. The controller is so comfortable in your hands. It is a lot more portable too. It even comes with a carrying handle. As for DVD players, who needs 'em? You buy a game system to plat games, not play DVD's or CD's.

[Dark Ritual]

sory to hear that you got a GC. ^^
my lil brother got one and he liked it 4 a week and thin i got an XBox and now hes taking the GC back to get a XBox. i was going to give him my ps2 and he could take the $ from the GC and get more games but he dont like the ps2..now im stuck with the P.O.S.

[answer763]

I'm keeping Atari^^

[GameCube]

Xbox is a POS.

[Chruser]

Like I told you, gamecube is like 70% gameplay and 30% graphics, while ps2, xbox and so on are 45% gameplay and 55% graphics. What's the point of going for graphics on a console, when my computer can play a game that looks twice as good?

Consoles should be for the arcade feeling.

[FuRy]

Well i tihnk XBox sucks ass and Gamecube rules...........

[tacoX]

Ok, think HALO.... then think SSBM, Halo wins in multiplayer.

[Chruser]

There aren't any GC emulators yet, are there?

[GameCube]

Just wait until 007: Agent Under Fire comes out. It's gonna KICK HALO'S ASS!!!!!

[tacoX]

007 series... kinda sucks ass. Your mom wont let you have it ne was, :sex:, jk

[GameCube]

That game looks so awesome. But wait till PD Zero comes out. That games gonna KICK ASS!!!!!

[Chruser]

I never even played Perfect Dork for N64. I kind of forgot to do it :\

[GameCube]

u should, its a great game

[Chruser]

Better than GoldenEye, compared to when that was released?

[GameCube]

yea, definately

[FuRy]

Very good game, but the graphics were sort of choppy due to the massive size of the game.

[FuRy]

One more thing. Why is everyone on this forum so damn biased towards one console? It seems like everyone has to defend a console if they own it......and to all the people who say that Nintendo is only capable of making "kiddy" games, they are wrong, and they can kiss my arse.

[GameCube]

im for gamecube, but i think ps2 is pretty good too.

[FuRy]

I would get a PS2, but I'm not spending 300 more dollars just for another console. My Gamecube is enough to keep me interested.

[Chruser]

Personally, I don't want to spend anything on consoles at all any longer.

[GameCube]

well, GameCube is the cheapest

[FuRy]

yea, but when will it have online capabilities?

[GameCube]

nintendo is still working on the modem adapter

[www.com]

If i had a faster connection i would just stick more money into my computer rather than buy ANY console. But since i am limited to Dial up or Satelite, I kinda need something to keep my interests... After all, what sense would it make to have a KICKASS comp, if your internet is too slow to play online games. And since I only have 1 computer, and friends are here alot, Gamecube will be PERFECT. ^_^ God i love the korean face (though i am not korean)
