Right i havent bought any cube games in a while, and am considering getting a couple for my birthday. I've missed quite a few of the top games, and for some reason ended up with a few games that stink like a cess pool. Right so i need help on, first finding out which games i've missed, and then deciding which games to actually get.

These are the games i have ( so no-one suggests them )

-Soul Caliber
-TS2
-ED
-Hitman 2
-CFDS
-Worms 3D
-VJ
-XIII
-MOH:F
-Burnout2
-Wind Waker
-SSB:M
-Animal Crossing
-Pitfall (twas free)
-Super Monkey Ball
-Turok (free again)
-Fifa 04
-Mazza Kart

Cheers for any recommendations... (Oh and i was considering getting CFDS2 and RS3, if anyone has any info on those)

I think I'm on my 5th play through or so, and I'm still lapping it up, and going back for much, much more.though, I guess it's all down to who you play it with.

I'd say Halo's strongest point is it's co-op mode. But you can only finish the game so many times before it gets very boring. I sold Halo last week, but I hope Halo 2 does live up to all the hype.

Why don't you just rent games, or buy them from somewhere that has a returns policy? There's no use having a pile of games you don't play.

You hyperbole.

Halo is overrated, yes. It has its flaws, yes. But it's still utter GENIUS in co-op.

I couldn't get into F-Zero at all. It was as fast as you like, but the lack of weapons made it a little boring.

Yes, the Story Mode is pretty bad, but I think it's the rather underwhelming speed. Both Burnout 2 and XG3 are faster than F-Zero, along with another game I can't remember at the moment. :-)

Yes, it's good, but also one of the most overrated game in years, only beaten by Halo.

It's just that Story Mode is no replacement for Death Race and X Cup. The tracks are good although there's nothing that stands out like Big Hand used to. I need to play it some more it is a decent game you just have to put lots of effort into it.

Oh thanks for that... why do people always say that once i've ordered it?
