What a great console! Just bought it yesterday, and after sitting hours with playing "Super Monkey Ball" (great game, btw), I have made the conclusion that GameCube is a faboulus console. I especially like the good graphics, and it's litle size.
I think it's the best of the three competing consoles (Xbox, GameCube and PS2), as I have played all three of them.
But then again, nothing, not even GC, beats the computer. [img]smile.gif[/img] [img]tongue.gif[/img]

So, what do you guys think of GC, and the two other consoles?

here's my opinon on the best system to worst of this new 128 bit generation and some of the reasons why:

X-box - Expandability, Hardware, Lovely controller
GameCube - Size, Originality, The Games
Sega Dreamcast -VMUs, Online Play, Great Games
PS2 - DVD Playback, Lack of Anti-Alaising is slightly dissapointing...

Each has a strenghte and a weakness, I got the X-box as a compliment to the Dreamcast, because so many dreamcast sequels were comming out for the X-box: "Tekki" "Capcom Vs SNK3" "Shenmue 2-16" "DeadOrAlive" "Gun Valkyrie" "JetSetRadio Future" "Crazy Wings -Online Dogfighting with voice chat" "BattleTech's Mech Cruisade" "Phantasy Star Online Episode 3" and Being a BUNGIE fan... I would also have to say "HALO"...

Go one a couple of days ago and it's brilliant! I got Wave-race,Sonic adventure2battle and Luigi's mansion and they are all great. Sonic's the best so far though.
I prefer it to the PS2 but the x-box is the only real competitor against Nintendo now.

I've heard that Sonic Adventure isnt supposed to be that good. Oh well...
And yeah, I agree that Luigi's Mansion is great. I played this with my friend, and we both enjoyed it very much. It's especially fun to kill ghosts with a vacuum cleaner...

And Xbox is also a great console, IMO. It as great graphics, 300 million micropolygons per second, while GameCube has only 6-12 mills...
But GameCube is better, IMO, because of all the cool games, the little size, and the loooooooovely controllers. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Gamecube is pretty cool, and I respect Nintendo for everything that they have done for gaming. I do agree that without Nintendo there would be no Playstation, etc. But for me, Nintendo still strikes me as a "kid's" system. No offense is meant by that, but it just seems to me that it is still geared towards the younger crowd (although they have been updating that image in recent years). I prefer the more adult-oriented games (most of the time), so for me PS2 is the system to own. As for XBox, I just don't like it. Yeah it has 2 good games, but that's not enough for me. PS2, being backwards-compatible has a huge library of games and while some are stinkers, 99% of the games I want are on this system.
