I'd have to say the best gamecube game I've played so far is either mario sunshine, metroid prime, or zelda. What are some other great GC games I'm missing out on?

Super Monkey Ball. SSX3. Soulo Calibur 2.
All better than those three you mentioned IMO.

Metroid Prime is really freakin nice, graph and gameplay.
Mario is quite a chalange it seems, i only played it for alittle while (just got it)
Zelda dissapointed me allot, i think it's nothing compared to Ocarina of time
dont you just hate his gayed up face ?

Refund's right Zephyr... even if you don't like the single player, the multi player games are excellent. SSX3 is very good too... they seem to of learnt how to inroduce a bit of longevity from the THPS games :)

Yeah, even my flatmates last year who weren't into videogames loved that... monkey fight is so simple "pick up and play", mates can learn how to play in seconds making it ideal for post pub gaming.

I was jokingly pointing out that your innability to appreciate games "for kids" (despite the fact that Super Monkey Ball is one of the hardest games ever...) is likely to be reflected in the sort of films you watch and you probably only watch graphic, violent and sexually explicit films. Of course, I don't think you do really...
I do think Nintendo's policy on no violent games is a bit gash (as it means no GTA Vice City etc. despite them being happy to have Resident Evil Zero), but that's not to say that the games on it are all "kiddie".

I appreciated games for kids when I was a kid, becoming an "adult" sadly opened me up to everything that is wrong in this world. But hey, as long as there are tities & music & mental illness I'll still be here!
I cant say I favour graphic, violent and sexually explicit films, I did when I was a kid though.
My little brother loves his Gaycube & thats what counts, isn't it! I have to say Mariokart Double dash looks cool!

I bought my bro Wave Race Blue Storm and James Bond - Agent Under Fire for crimbo, I hope these games are good, does anyone have either of these?
I played the first bond game to come out on the PS2 ages ago & me being a hardcore Goldeneye/Perfect Dark nut at the time thought it was pretty lame.

Gamecubes are for just under 15 year olds......get a life. Up until last week I had two consoles, and I sold my PS2 cos I dont use it. The Gamecube is the only console I need, and it far superior to the PS2 in my opinion. And before another says "DVDs??" Fuck off I say.....anyone like me who has/had one, will know that the PS2 does a gobshite job of playing DVDs....

So true.. I haven't seen the xbox's dvd player in action, but PS2's is shittylame, and who doesn't already have a DVD player anyway? The fact that gamecube doesn't have one isn't a detractor at all, IMO.

Gamecube for kiddies? People who say that probably aren't mature enough yet to appreciate nintendo's appeal ;-)
My favourites:
animal crossing the wind waker f-zero gx mario kart dd super monkey ball
Somehow i can't really get into metroid prime. Quite a mystery, that. I love the graphics and music... they create such an isolated atmosphere. The controls are superb too... better than in any other fps I've ever played. But for some reason I've hardly been playing it at all :-s
It just doesn't grab me like other metroid's did.

Amen to that twice. Blood and guts and tits and swearing do not a mature game make. Nintendo has a subtle little magic to their games, neanderthals need not apply.

But that said, the third party support for Gamecube is atrocious. The first party games are top drawer quality. But most good games for the GC not made by Nintendo are on the Xbox with smoother framerates and higher resolutions.

I dunno, the gamecube version of SC2 seems identical (graphics wise) to xbox, the controller is better and Link is a better character than spawn...

I just picked up Super Mario Sunshine preowned for 25 bucks.. I LOVE this game! It's kind of like Super Mario 64 with insane graphics. I like how the premise of both games is going around collecting "stars" (shine sprites in SunShine) while exploring different worlds, except that Sunshine has a nice twist on it with the FLUDD. This is a topnotch platformer, IMO. :)

Super Monkey Ball 1...
The sequel has more games/better versions (bar monkey target, I prefer the SMB 1 version of that) of the multiplayer games, but the single player mode is better in the first game in my opinion... the first one is more about pure skill and dexterity- it's usually obvious what you have to do to complete the level. The second one is a bit different (I suppose they were trying to move it forwards/develop the idea), it's generally more puzzley and many rounds require several goes to work out the timing/best route, but once you know it are easy to complete.

"This is a topnotch platformer, IMO. :)"
Yeah, but Mario64 is still better. I agree fludd is a great addition. It makes you much more confident when doing dangerous jumps because you can always steer a little and save yourself if something goes wrong. Just like the racoon-tail and the cape used to do in 2d-mariogames :-)
I don't really like the fludd as a weapon though... i prefer just jumping on the enemies.
SMS also has some parts that are just too damn frustrating... you'll see. Also there are not enough different levels (imo), a shocking lack of variety (yes you too will grow to hate the tropical theme :-p), and after finishing all the levels, collecting all the 120 shines is very tedious.
Still a great game though. I should play through it again sometime soon.
