I've not touched my cube for a couple of months, but recent bigish releases have caught my eye.

I was thinking maybe MGS or FF:CC.

Which is best? For someone just getting back into things?

I just got MGS a couplr of days ago, and, while I find the controls, camera and shooting particularly poor, the cut scenes and story are extremely well done, even if some cut scenes last for close to half an hour.

Oh, and the Codec is the laziest excuse for dispensing with cutscenes and gameplay that I have EVER seen.

Other than that it's quite excellent.

Well if you are going for one of those two i'd suggest:

Metal Gear: Twin Snakes if you didn't play the Playstation original, or loved it to death. Playing through it on the Cube is a joy, and the cutscenes are beautiful.

But if you have mates with GBAs then go for Crystal Chronicles, allthough playing solo can be boring so if the one player game is what you are most looking for then Twin Snakes is definitely the way to go.

if you have never played mgs ts then get that. It is much betta then then the ps version, unless you like rpg/ adventure ythen go for the ffcc but ffcc is only good when you have more than one playa and have a gba otherwise the game is crap. 1 player is boring because it doent have much depth. When you have atleast 2 players you will have some fun so get this. But make sure you have the gba.

I would personally get mgss because of its excellent gameplay.
