<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Fuck ya' all...I've played DoA3, Halo and Fever all night at a friends house. You guys (not you specifically) are outta your mind if you can't see the quality of these LAUNCH games...shit, they are far above (gameplay, graphical leap) anything PS2 or even Dreamcast had at launch.

Angry, silly little men.

I'll be getting one in a couple days now...early b-day present ; )

*shrug*

As for the price difference...well, consider you get D-TV capabilities, built-in broadband, DVD playback(sorta), ability to rip CD tracks to games, a ten gig hard drive(subtract the cost of buying mem cards!), highest hardware cababilities and integrated Dolby 5.1 support (shame on you dorks who don't yet have a surround speaker system!).

Seems worth a mere $100 to me...

What do you get with the Gamecube? A handle? The ability to link to your GBA? Continued use of a different storage medium and licensing structure that drives away 3rd parties? The privledge of being called "Faggo" by all your friends as you carry your Pikachu-style Cube around and ask'em to play with your Monkey Balls...
How shameful......

By a PS2....buy an X-Box....but for godsakes, don't be a Faggo!

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>You know, you and S.Cody really use a lot of gay-bashing epithets to describe anything you think is juvenile or immature. No one needs it and it disrespects a lot of people who deserve the same chance at human rights and respect that we all get. Can you stop?</div>

[kali o.]

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>You obviously don't know me very well....Fag!

And it wasn't used to describe anything juvenile or immature...it was used to describe something that is clearly very queer. When you see a buff man in a belly shirt and short shorts, what do you say? "My, that young man is really quite intriguingly effeminate..."

Please...

Maybe next you can have a discussion with Eric about his inappropriate use of the word "nigger" and, for the sake of political correctness, point out that he should refrain from using such terms.

Who do you think you are talking to?

And my problem stems from you claiming I throw around the term with abandon. What, you see it once and that consitutes my constant use? Bite me.

Further, on behalf of the entire gay community, I'd like to thank you for championing the cause across irrelevant, sparsely populated message boards...

Despite my constant exposure to those damn bloody homosexuals from Vancouver to La Rochelle to Mykonos, obviously my behaviour has been absolutely out of line the entire time!

Thank god YOU, a faceless person who doesn't know me, has been able to gauge my bias and ignorance toward gays and take immediate steps to RECTI-fy my politically incorrect attitude...something my own homosexual faggo-ass friends have somehow managed to not be able to do....AND SUFFER FROM THEMSELVES!!

Holy shit! THANKS NITPICKER!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WAIT TILL I TELL ALL MY GAY BUDDIES HOW YOU OPENED MY EYES!!!!!!!!!

It's also the cheapest console to get the best third party games available; A few examples include Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3, SSX Tricky, Skies of Arcadia, Soul Calibur.
