  • So I've been tossing around the idea of picking up a Gamecube, seeing as how there's only two titles I'd want to get for PS2. Disregarding Animal Crossing, what's worth picking up for GC?

  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Resident Evil, Super Smash Bros Melee, Rogue Leader, Pikmin, Eternal Darkness. That's not including the ones coming, like Metroid Prime and Resident Evil Zero. There are other fairly decent ones, but those are the cream of the crop</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light"; text-align: left; '>.hack (coming in Feb), Suikoden 3 (coming end of Oct), Wild ARMs 3 (10/9), Star Ocean 3 (Feb), Soul Calibur 2 (sometime), SW: Galaxies (yes, as a PS2 port), Dead to Rights (same thing), etc., etc., etc. PS2 got about a billion times more games than the GC.

No, I'm not a PS2 whore, but blowing your money on another system is quite a waste of funds, IMO. I'm at the point where I'm trying NOT to buy more games, just to catch up.</div>
