1. Of all those you mentioned, Xbox probably has the best. Also, I actually used longer time on Two Towers on GameCube than I did on any else. That just might be me, though.
3. Definetly GameCube. The controller fit your hand just like a glove, as you said yourself, and is better than the N64-controller. Believe me, GC really has the best interface. 4. I liked Super Mario 64 a tiny bit better than Sunshine. But still, Sunshine is one of the most awesome games I've ever played, and you won't be dissapointed if you try it. So, to summarize it all, buy GameCube! It seems to be the best option for you, atleast after judging all your previous posts. Except that the best FPS's are on Xbox. |

If only Game Cube had Syphon Filter. I loved 1 and 2 both.
"Used more time," Sir Exxon, means "spent more time" and is good, right? Sorry, I just wasn't sure I got your meaning. Thanks for all the helpful info, of course. |

The control level is the one where you infiltrate the base and Natalya redirects the goldeneye, then you have to blow up the armored mainframes. If you kill Boris (I think that's his name) natalya gets mad and you fail the mission since she won't redirect the golden gun.
I've tried using the proximity mines, dual rc-p90s, the rocket launchers and the tank, lasers, and golden pp7s, but I just can't keep her alive! |

2. Pretty much, although PS2 has a greater variety. 3. I have heard the GCN controller is very comfortable, however for fighting games it is very uncomfortable. The Xbox controller is like a brick (although they did release a smaller version of it called Controller-S). The PS2 controller is basically the same as the PSone controller. (the analogue sticks feel smoother) 4. Not as orignal as the first, but still a great purchase. (I would also recommend getting the new Zelda game, The Wind Waker) [img]smile.gif[/img] [ 04-23-2003, 09:52 PM: Message edited by: GokuZool ] |

just a comment on the controllers. i've played with all three at least a little. The GC controller is buy far the best. it's incredibly comfortable and very intuitive(works great in fps which you said your interested in). i'd put the other two about even. the ps2 controllers pretty much are the ps1 controllers.

Anyway, I search around gaming shop just now, I notice Xbox has slash their prices about 50% in order to compete with PS2. it now has the same price as a PS2. that is $1300.

Here, the PS2 and Xbox cost around $350 (AUS) or $215 (USD) which is still a bit expensive. The Gamecube is around $50 cheaper. |

I'll throw in my two cents on this one as well.Go with ps2.It's new to you so with more games for ps2, and a truckload of ps1 titles (they are still making new ones you know) you can't help but find many quality games you'll love.I'm not just saying this because of the bargins involved but you can go to EB with $100 and come home with 4 or 5 good games easy.I ended up haveing the dreaded "disk read error" problem I called the 1-800 number thier support was fast and helpfull, and they fixed it for free even tho it was no longer under warrenty (bought it used for $100).The only thing I paid was shipping from me to them, they even shipped it back free.When I sent it I accedentally left a golf game in it when I got it back the disc was in an envolope with the game with a note that said "you had some minor scratches on enclosed disc,we cleaned it up for you .Enjoy.".Now this was a 3rd party game the scratches were very minor but the thing looked like new, to me this is a high quality service.Couple more things to consider. Ps3 in 2005 will also be reverse compatible so your ps1 and ps2 games will still be playable if you upgrade,and the price is likely to drop in the next few months because they have devoloped a new chip to replace 2 chips used now with more power and at a lower price.It might sound like I work for sony or something but truth be told I've allways been a sega supporter through thick and thin but that's no longer a choice.
