"All quiet...."

On the Nintendo front. It seems after a mad blast if sweet titles everything has suddenly died a painful death for the time being. E3 was decent but that doesn't make up for a lack of releases in the mean time. I have scanned through the titles to be released however all the main ones are the back end of this year with the possible exception ofPikmin2which will hopefully be brought forward.

Haven't played my Cube since completing Metal Gear: Twin Snakes with LIVE and Ninja Gaiden taking up most of the playing time. My current Cube collection is pretty much complete with very little to nothing else worth getting at the moment, possibly Mario Golf will be my next purchase when they finally release it this summer.

So if anyone can enlighten me on decent release in the meantime I would much oblige.

Cheers!

But Rainbow Six 3 and Splinter Cell Pandora Tomorrow shine on LIVE more than anything else, this is something the Cube versions don't offer. If it was purely single player I would have been finished with both within a couple of days.

Discounting the already released games (that's 2 then), I could easily say Splinter Cell: PT, Mario Golf, Rainbow Six 3.

But I was saying that, in proportion to the usual amount of releases, the summer schedule is always much thinner than the rest of the year. As there are always more games being released on the PS2 and Xbox, the lull will still contain some games, but nowhere near as many as at Christmas, or November, say.
Summer is the time to stock on up games that you missed during the year for cheaps. I'll be getting BG&E and whipping out my Dreamcast for some long overdue reminiscing.

When the hell are NOE going to get round to releasing Wario Ware GC? Been out for ages in America.

Hardly tons of text to translate..

I’m a bit indecisive about Mario golf to be honest.
On one hand, you’ve got a graphically rich game, with familiar characters-
And on the other you’ve got golf – something that I don’t personally like – especially playing it on the Television; I’d rather hit the ball with my own club thanks very much.

But that’s not to say it will be good – I never had the N64 version, so I can’t really speak from experience.

Mario Tennis will be excellent though, I suppose you could just say the same thing that I just said about Golf, but tennis seems more fast paced – and there looks to be a few fun elements chucked in; like weapons ;) Tennis isn’t too far away, and PSO III isn’t either – we will just have to wait and see about that one though.

so why start this topic then?

Beyond good and evil looks worth getting and its only £18.99.

As, i said before final fantasy is definately worth getting but if you want something different, maybe Soul Calibur?

Universal Studios?

I doubt it.

No matter how much that game gets abuse, I still wish to play it.

I have ALL the worth while Cube games to date.

2003 was meant to be the year of the cube, but it never really happened.

To be honest, everything always seems to be 'just around the corner' for the Gamecube, and it never really ever takes off for it.

I blame the fact that, at launch, the console had a pretty weak first party line-up, and games after that didn't come for a while (Super Smash Bros and Pikmin were the only 2 for ages after launch).

Meh,

I'd recommend Eternal Darkness if you haven't already got it, and F-Zero GX is an excellent racer that's been surprisingly overlooked by many.

2005 could be the Cubes year with all of the Sequels coming out.
