I rented one for a weekend with Halo. It was a wicked game
but we passed it easily and there are only like 6 different
enemies (wtf?) so it doesnt have much replay value.
Multiplayer jsut isnt as good in Halo as it is in perfect
dark either which is too bad cause the controls and graphics
in Halo are amazing, jsut isnt very fun after awhile.

I had XBox, I went through great pains to trade mine for a
PS2, thank god I did.

I havent played game cube, but I prefer the games available
on computer to the new consoles. I feel like xbox/PS2 are
all about the graphics and not about fun. Maybe im just
playing the wrong games. Give me Age of empires 2 any day
over a console.

there's already a xbox emulator.
it's made by one developper of the xbox os. it run xbox
games perfectly, but with a 800 mhz pross. 128 m ram min,
and Nvidia video card only.
i heard microsoft is searching over the net to eradicate it.

I fancy a Gamecube. £150(ish), nice controller... but the
games! Where are the gaaaaammes?

I mean no third party stuff, half the shit you can get on
X-Box and Gamecube has been on PC for six months and costs
£15

I don't like the X-Box at all! The difference is not that
much better really than what my PS2 is capable of (from what
I have seen! The controllers for it are horrendous - I'll
be keeping my PS2 until PS3 is released!

It's a shame the Gamecube doesn't play DVDs though! I
allways used to buy Nintendo consoles, but now I have turned
to Sony. There is a much better variety of games available.

Not quite sure how well X-Box will be! Microsoft might do
well in the business world and the home pc market, but
whether or not they'll do as good in the console market
remains to be seen! Time will tell!

My favorite game company is Nintendo, but the Gamecube just
doesn't have the GAMES to keep my attention. The first party
games are fucking awesome, Metroid, Perfect Dark, Zelda,
Mario, but N64 didn't have the third party support that Sony
had. Doesn't look Gamecube can compete with the PS2 either.


Microsoft can suck my dick, two consoles are MORE than
enough. I hope the Xbox crashes and burns. I'll probably buy
a Gamecube, though. It's pretty cheap.

I agree Ophecks - I think Microsoft will learn the hard way!
Nintendo have been around for years, and I think Sony got
lucky with the Playstation, and maybe Microsoft are thinking
that they'll have the same success, I doubt it!

Perfect Dark was my favourite game on my N64, that and
F-Zero X - that was so fast!!

Sony just came out of nowhere to just dominate everyone, it
was pretty revolutionary. I hope Microsoft doesn't do
something like that... but it looks like they're in third
place anyway, not on the same level. Fortunately!

Perfect Dark was awesome, and I can't wait for Perfect Dark
Zero on the Gamecube! Great games coming out for Nintendo in
the next year, but all the games out for it now suck.

I still play Super Nintendo on emulators more than the new
systems! I just beat Super Castlevania 4 last night for
about the 7,568th time.

Gameboy Advance is fucking amazing, it's portable SNES, old
school 2D gaming, like the old days! Circle of the Moon is
the best game I've played in a while.

I wouldn't mind a Gamecube, but the thing is I have loads of
PS2 games now, and I don't really want (or can't afford) two
games consoles at the moment.

As I mentioned above..I want a PS3 when they release it in
2005! That will be a machine to blow both Gamecube and X-Box
out of the water!!

yes yes, Super Nintendo is awesome... I'm gonna have to hook
it up, and rent me some Street Fighter 2... oh how I love

Street Fighter EX3 is good on the PS2 (one of my

i got an xbox today with jet set radio future, and i'm
extremely happy with it. i should be getting ninja gaiden by
the end of the week.

jet set radio future, panzer dragoon orta, gun valkyrie,
shenmue 2, dead or alive 3 and ninja gaiden make the xbox a
dreamcast 2 for me.

Oh my, how times have changed! Over the last 2 years, I've
lost almost all faith in Nintendo, and Microsoft have won me
over. But I think Sony is going to pull ahead even further
next gen.

That's a great list of games. I've got and love them all,
except Dead of Alive. They're all dirt cheap, too... since
you're a Segaphile, have you ever played Otogi?

LOL, Perfect Dark Zero on the Gamecube, you fucking idiot.
It'll be an Xbox2/Xenon launch title.

That post reminds me of the reason I bought a Nintendo 64
back in '96... I thought the Final Fantasy series was going
to continue on a new Nintendo console, as it always had.

i've never even heard of otogi, so i just googled it and
WOW, thanks for the heads up.

and dead or alive is really shallow, but i'll keep it around
for when friends stop by.
