As ive been told from magazines the gamecube or xbox will rule the gaming universe.i know which im buying because i think its better,im thinking of probably getting the gamecube.the advantages of the xbox and gamecube:
both machines have stunning graphics

the xbox is big, so itll probably be heavy
also the gamecube is small and maybie light

gamecube doesnt have many relaeses to start with,
but the xbox has quite a few games confirmed for thr release

there are so many things i cant name them all so,
if you want a powerful machine with a few games confirmed for the release, get the xbox

if you want a small but powerful games machine the has bigger games, get the gamecube

Dave Mirra was the only one that I didn't already have.

Now I've got these 9 Reddies saved up, and don't know what to get with them...

I don't feel the need to place a deposit on an X-Box when I can probably just walk into a shop on launch day and pick one up off the shelf.

Meantime, my money is in my hands to spend on what I wish. So today I DID actually give some money to SR, groundbreaking for me as I've never actually given them a penny.

I joined SR with a one year membership. Postal Order is in the post today.

SR have my deposit for a Gamecube, so now there is no going back.

Have you laid your deposit for a X-Box yet? (I'm still sure it should be AN X-Box... sounds much better.)

Hmmm, I hadn't thought about weight. Maybe the Gamecube would be a better choice as it may be lighter, and with the handle, it would be a lot easier to pick it up and throw it out of the window.

Excellent post!

You have used superb grammar and you have really presented the arguments to both consoles with total unbiased comments. You have really helped me as to what console I should get. I have seen the light… I will get a GAMECUBE.

Thank you ever so much!

Then there's the Dreamcast, which is still kicking the PS2 into touch for graphics at the moment. And it has over 260 games available for it now. That's a nice back catalogue.
And of course it's still the only games console out there where you can go online and frag someone from the U.S. if you are feeling in a bad mood.

Of the Gamecube and X-Box though, I'll be looking more to the X-Box to provide the kind of gaming that I prefer, plus it has a few enhancements that are quite useful, like DSL connection for online play (no discernable lag) and the hard drive to store add-ons for your games, like extra levels and so on.
