"Do you know what the 'Cube lacks..."

A good realistic racer.

Ye, we've got Mario Kart and F-Zero, but to be honest I fell the 'Cube needs a solid, beefy racer. PS2 has GT, Xbox has Forza and PGR, but the 'Cube has...well, nothing really.

'Tis a shame. Time after time I see lame, pathetic races like World Racing grace upon the 'Cube, and I long for an exclusive racing series that doesn't involve an Italian in a Red Cap and squillions of weapons.

I don't think Ninty would do something like that though, as they're more into innovation. Hopefully Burnout 3 will hit the 'Cube, but we need our own GT in my opinion.

If "great" is comparable to "absolutely gobsmackingly awful".

Really, I can't understand why anyone above the age of four would like Air Ride, and even big cutesy racing fans should only need Double Dash.

But a correct idiot, in this sense.

Like Dringo....

And I hated the N64's controller, that makes it worse thean the GC.

well they both have some good games. my fave console is the SNES. i think the gameplay was soooo much better back in those days. the graphics were lacking compared to them of new consoles but i would rather the gameplay over the graphics. i dont think all GC owners are moronic either. most of them have sence and good taste...

I think it's only the moronic Cube owners that think it's perfect.

The N64 is far better.

have a lacking range all together i suppose. i wish the majority of nintendo owners didnt think it was perfect. everything they do is great and couldnt be improved. i think the cube does need some realistic racers like Burnout 3 and GT to keep people that like it happy. i got a PS2 for games like that (and many others) and if the cube had more then i wouldnt have needed one. if GC does bring out a realistic racer then all you typical 'nintendo is tiptop perfect' people will love the realistic racer, despite some of you just saying that is dosnt need one. it happens every time. i think constructional critisism is good for raising the profile of things, like the GC.

Hey, Kirby Air Ride is great.

Don't listen to Ashman though, he's an idiot. :-P

And the Cube will have a fair few great RPG's by next year.

So Nintendo not getting good racers, RPG's and FPS's (with the exception of Timesplitters, what is there? And Metroid Prime is an FPA.)

That's not fair. We don't have all that many platformers either, when you think about it.

Nintendo's top realistic racer comes in the forms of Burnout and Need For Speed... There is no need for a game to topple PGR2 and GT...

After all if Nintendo had the top edition of every franchise then that just wouldn't be fair.

This is why i switched to the dark side and got a Xbox.

I mean, when i asked about weither or not any good racings game were coming up soon, i was told Kirbys Air Ride!

A next gen remake of the absolutely wonderful Need For Speed:Road challenge is required.
That was the best racing game ever.
After Rock N Roll racing of course.
