Which one should I get? Give me reasons for getting that one too.
I would stick with Gamecube because it has many awesome games coming out that you can't get anywhere else...Mario, Zelda, Metroid, Donkey Kong, and Star Fox.

Nintendo isnt making enough mature titles for GC.
GameCube
2002-04-08, 03:49 PM
true
yea right dude. What about Eternal Darkness, Resident Evil, Turok, and Metroid prime? Its not a lot of mature titles but still...
GameCube
2002-04-09, 09:03 PM
metroid prime's not rated M

look at all the other metroid games were they rated m?? no. and yeah stick to cube cuz its got awesome games, like perfect dark 2, zelda, mario, mariokart, star fox, turok and such, and especially resident evil, 6 different RE games comin out for the cube sometime or another.
also, it costs $100 less although it cant play dvd's, hardly anybody has them anywayz. and it can play up to 4 players instead of 2, sure youc an buy the ps2 adapter but thats more money to spend when you could just buy a cube and get that option built in

I am not looking for DVD players cuz I already have 2, and I think I am going to get GameCube. Anyways, since I already have X-Box and I'm getting GC probably all the good games on PS2 will be on X-Box or GC sooner or later.
P.S. I will be getting it in a few weeks.
Good choice...Gamecube rocks

The only reason I'm even considering picking up a PS2 is because I'm not living with my roommate next year and I've been using his. And even then, the only games I'm interested in are the Legacy of Kain series, Final Fantasy, the Shadowman series, and the Silent Hill series.

I think Gamecube has better Graphics, sound, more memory ( I think) and it has a really sweet controller.

thats the third time in ten minutes you've made a statement that has absolutely no factual basis and covers nothing. "Nintendo has been out for ages, they know what they're doing"??? it's not like they're making most of the games
GameCube
2002-04-14, 09:33 AM
but they make some games and sony does not.
Nintendo doesn't make a lot of games, but the ones they do rock!!!
GameCube
2002-04-15, 05:06 PM
agreed

Don't you mean Game Cube? Because Nintendo used to make alot of games for their systems.
GameCube
2002-04-15, 06:10 PM
GameCube is not a company. It is a system made bu nintendo.

Anyone who says "game cube sux, it doesn't have any games". Go here. Its a list of all the FUTURE RELEASES by nintendo For the Gamecube console. IGN also has a list of all the current games available. After you see this site you will be going O_O
NonGayMan- I say you should go with the gamecube, no doubt.

Wrong Mr.Lee, the processor of the GC is near twice faster than PS2
mightychicken
2002-04-16, 07:59 AM
not nearly. it's about 67% faster.

67% is near 100% no ?
or maybe i 'm really THAT bad on mathematic... (true ;) )
Raziel
2002-04-16, 11:13 AM
I think the point is that it's still faster. Faster and easier to code for.
GameCube
2002-04-16, 03:35 PM
the gc runs at 460 MHz while the ps2 runs at 233 MHz. thats about twice as fast.

regardless of wut it runs ps2 has all the greatest line up of companys at there beckon to make the best games ever some of them might make a few games for the other systems but will mainly stay commited to ps2 money= loyalty and sony is rocking the gaming industry. also nitendo always sticks to the same line up look at there games for launch for gc and for n64 almost all the same games remade (think the first waverace would teach them a lesson) if thats all nitendo can do then its only a blast from the past which will never last long I agree some of them are great games but is nitendo ever gonna make a revoulnary step foward (I know they have in the past but were in the present now) or are they gonna keep playing with the non risky elements of there past to try and make a succesful campaign on the other sytems which in my view is better (I've had all three systems and the only one I decided to keep is ps2)
One more thing every day that goes by sony is making compontes for the ps2 (also a ps3) which will close any software/hardware gap on the others
Broadband adapter with a hard drive larger then any others available yet and thats only the beginning
Final Fantasy 11 anyone????
GameCube
2002-04-19, 06:39 AM
but sony doesnt make their own games.....

i have to agree with Jhonny Tae eariler on. The games that Sony make are awesome. Final Fantasy. I don't see Super Mario Brothers 11. Also. I hate any company that actually delt POKEMON. uhhhh......I don't care if they made a lot of maney or not. I still hate the little buggers and all of their followers.

it's okay to be wrong *pats GameCube on the back*. just admit it a little earlier next time, or do your research before you insist like that.
GameCube
2002-04-26, 06:22 PM
yea, but one of my friends said it was 233 so.....
Raziel
2002-04-26, 08:10 PM
The point is, the Gamecube is still faster. Not like it even matters though. What really holds any weight is the quality of the games that either company releases, and personally I think both systems have a lot of good stuff on them, or will in the future.
GameCube
2002-04-28, 10:43 AM
yea, true. ps2's been out for longer so they have a lot more games and a lot of them should be ported to the GCN.
