Im considering buying either a gamecube or xbox (i’ve already got a ps2). Xbox has live and loits of great games, but gamecube has really different games to those on ps2, and i’m not even sure if ill but either. got to go anyway ive on the computer so long i’m starting to look like this
hahaha that’s good 
Yeah eilsoe… They look pretty **** sweet… And I personally think that FF1 was one of the greatest Along with 2’s cooky plot
there is a new FF being made for the Gamecube and GBA right now, I cant wait to see how they look

**ok, where do i start? (deep breath…)
The ps2 has been out over two years longer than gamecube - this could be the reason for more variety…
Whoa ‘squaresoft’ - once a great partner of nintendo, squaresoft sold out to sony, and gave them numerous ‘exclusive’ titles. This happenend with many other third party game publishers… now ‘thankfully’ the tides have changed - and most of those same third party publishers have gone back to nintendo…
PS2 PLAYS DVDS - what? this is the reason you bought one - lol - dont you allready have a dvd player - get real - PLAY GAMES NOT MOVIES
Quality control - PS2 has the best games - ha ha - out of the enormous amount of games released for ps2, how many have actually been worthy of your time? i can count these on my fingers (ico, rez, gta iii)… Graphical updates dont automatically mean great gameplay - i need new experiences. Gamecube on the other hand (mario sunshine, super monkey ball 1 & 2, rougue squadran ii, metroid prime, luigis mansion, smash bros) - and lets not forget the forthcoming new zelda.
Joypad - gamecube wins hands down…
unrelated fact : ps1 was jointly created by sony AND nintendo
Just for the record, im not just an nintendo freak, but an avid video game collector (and yes, i have playstation 2), but if i had to choose between these two consoles i would be the cube.
in a nutshell
PS2 : A system which is capable, but the potential is hardly ever realized. Only a handfull of games are ‘worthy’ of anybodys time. Nevermind, i can watch a dvd on it…
Gamecube : Great games (updates or not) and the greatest pad ever to touch my hands, oh and lets not forget the new zelda.
case closed…
Gamecube : **
guess just opinion. b/c i love all the games I have for ps2 (which is about 15) and there area soooo many others that ive played that i love. never really liked any games for nintento…just seems to kiddy to me.
Can we stop calling each other’s system names?
I dont say that the PS2 is for people who are immature and only like violence and i dont say the Xbox is for geeks who only like Microsoft products. Because it isnt true. Just as Nintendo isnt a “kiddie” system as you have so nicley stated.
That is why these things get shut down or turn into flame wars. Please stop.
to back my statment…I’m not a hardcore gamer or anything. Just from a “normal consumer” standpoint. I find playstation funner to me. I don’t see how “kiddie” is offending!? just saying that “TO ME” all the games i see are…thinking of a different word since it is so offending…cartoonish?! is that better. jeez, why are you so offended? its not a bad thing. Just i like playing games like grand turismo (Very very realistic racing simulation). No harm intended. Still don’t understand why you take “kiddie” so hard. Sorry!
well as a 24 year old, “kiddie” isnt exacly the word I use when descibing what games I play to friends. I really dont want to start into anything here but look, you are generalizing all the games for the GameCube into one catagory - “kiddie” or “cartoonish” it just doesnt make sence.
Have you played Resident Evil? How about Eternal Darkness, or maybe Blood Rayne, Metroid Prime, Splinter Cell (soon) - none of those games seem kiddie or cartoony to me.
I do not like arguing about this stuff because it’s pointless really. It’s the games that make the system - it’s been said before in this thread and it’s true. But when you generalize things like you have into one catagory it’s going to make people upset that really enjoy the other types of games.
hmmmm…maybe not being a gamer i don’t understand your point…but…that’s why I stated “it SEEMS” like it…and being as i do not have a gamecube, i really havent played most games. and anyway…am I not entitled to my own opinion?!? I mean…I said “it seems to ME” your acting like i said “nintendo is KIDDY” but I did not…so I really don’t appreciate you coming at me like that. Calm down mr. nintendo
ok I am done.
I am here to make friends, not enemies. You are more than entitled to your opinion, but as I said before please do not generalize it. All games for the Xbox are sports games, all games for the PS2 arent violent and all games for the GameCube arent Kiddie. Do you see where I am coming from? It doesnt matter if you say “it seems” or “there are”.
Please also - dont tell me to calm down, I am not upset at all - acutally I am in a good mood, I love to debate things that I actually know about 
I was not “coming at you” in any way - just asking you to not stereotype games and systems as you did in your previous posts.
Video games are fun - no matter what the system. I own a GameCube and an Xbox. I have played PS2 before many times but just do not really like the sytstem but I do agree that there are a ton of great games for it from many different genre’s.
hahaha…alright. I guess you just don’t understand that it is my opinion? Let’s see…so you can understand… Lets say I bought a game cube…(this is an example) and it breaks on me a couple of times in the first week. I can state my opinion that i do no like gamecubes b/c they are crappy machines that break. That’s my “opinion” (am i spelling that right?) you can’t be like “oh don’t generalize that b/c not all systems break” its my opinion!..simple…not hard to understand. So yes…i can generalize them, its my own opinion. I see your point IF i said “Gamecubes are kiddy” that’s a statment. but i did not say that. So…yea. understand? anyway…has anyone played “getaway”? its awesome. cept…the navagation part is kinda wierd at times. seems like the coulda spent more time on the gameplay instead of recreating london. but, all in all, very good game.
wow - I see you can be very conasending when you feel like it eh?
I told you, I dont want to get into an argument but you keep getting upset. (did I spell that right?)
The reason I do not accept your argument is because you havent actually bought a gamecube and tried the games (as you stated in your post earlier) so you really have no point. I can say all “Chevy cars break down” but I have never owned one so I wouldnt know.
This is enough - I dont want this thread closed so this is over.
Yes I have played Getaway and it’s a great game.

haha:crazy: , you just proved my point…“chevy cars break down” so what if you do not know. still doesnt change the fact that its YOUR opinion;) good smiley
Sorry man, but of all the topics to get upset about, you guys decided to get upset about video games?
I mean… tell me. Is there anything in this debate you can say that’s objective?
hha, first off…who’s mad? Second off…(not to sound childish) but who started this? Third off…I just wanna make sure he understands the difference between an opinion, and a debate. If I wanted to debate I woulda said so. :love:

does that clear it up?
Hey, btw, is that new metroid good?! I LOVED metroid on NES. Isnt the new one for gamecube?
oh my god. Listen - I didnt post in retaliation to your last post because I said this was over.
Then you go and get a dictionary meaning… I cannot belive you would do that. Then you ask me a question about a game? What a jerk thing to do.
Wow.
The meaning was just to make sure you understood me. B/c judging from your posts, you did’nt (just clearing things up) and the question about the game was generalized to anyone…shoulda made that clearer. sorry about that.
No hard feelings! :love: Did’nt mean to be a “jerk”;(

I dont think even I am this anal about stuff. There’s a good phrase for this: passive aggression.
