Hereīs some of GameCubes really BIG games:

Luigiīs Mansion:

Marioīs brother Luigi, enters a competition where you can win a mansion by surviving one night in it. Luigi surprisingly wins and enters the Mansion...

Now itīs up to you. There are ghost everywhere, and the only thing Luigi has, is a torch. As we all know, ghost doesnīt seems to handle light so they disappear if Luigi will light on them. Later in the game you will meet the Mansion owner who gives you a vacuum cleaner. You can upgrade your vacuum cleaner to different weapons including a flame thrower. Great graphic and a exellent gameplay makes this a very interesting game.

Starfox Adventures:

Fox & CO is back in a that was set to be a all new game with all new characters. It didnīt went that way. They changed the name to Starfox Adventure starring Fox McCloud, Peppy Hare and Slippy Toad. But whereīs Falco? No ones knows.

General Pepper discovers some problems on a planet called Dinosaur Planet. He hasīnt forgot what Fox & CO did last time and calls them. Fox will take the missions and flies to Dinosaur Planet. There heīll meet General Scales, the man who done terrible things to the planet. Fox decides to stop him and itīs your job to guide Fox around to clear the mission. Without doubt one of the most interesting games.

Super Smash Bros Meele:

When Super Smash Brothers were released to N64, many people called it "the N64īs best fighter". And they were right, at least in my opinion. Super Smash Bros was a giant hit and the second one will come to the GameCube.

Many of the old characters, including good old Mario, Pikachu and Captain Falcon are starring as well as some new. Bowser, Peach, the ice climbers and Shiek are some of them. This is exactly what Super Smash Bros was, fast and fun. This is the game i will get first, no question about that.

Wave Race Blue Storm:

Waverace to the N64 was one of the first games that appeared to the ī64. It was very popular to the beginning and it still is. Wave Race Blue Storm is itīs sequel.

Waverace Blue Storm will be very popular, believe my words. The game has great gaphics and a fabulous gameplay and itīs also BIG. This game will be one of the most popular games at the launch.

Pikmin:

Shigsyīs new idea of a small alien collecting small living plants? Believe it or not, it is true.

Thereīs been a long time since Shigsyīs mind created a game. Will he ever do it again? He already did. Pikmin is about an alien that crashes into a planet. The only way to repair the ship is to collect enough energy to it. The alien getīs help from the Pikminīs, small living plants. The game has great graphics, but it doesīnt sounds to cool. Maybe not a big hit, but a small hit.

Turok Evolution:

The Dinosaur Hunter Turok have starred in Four Turok games so far. Is he ready for his fifth? Ohh, yes.

In the end of Turok 3, Turok actually died, right. So why is he alive in this game then? Well, Turok Evolution is set before Turok the Dinosaur Hunter so Turok himself are ready to Blast, gore and guns. Seen screenshots of this game? If you have, you now that the graphics is just, just, well theyīre the best iīve ever seen. And with such Gameplay Turok 1,2, Rage Wars and 3 gave us, iīll bet it will be awesome. Canīt wait too see it.

Mario Sunshine:

Mario is back! Nintendoīs mascot is back in one of his greatest adventures ever.

When Nintendo announced Luigiīs Mansion, rumours started. Mario was a second controllable person, Mario was the Mansion owner in disguise. Mario were captured by the ghosts. None of that was true. Now Nintendo have announced that they will release their new Mario game right after Gamecubeīs arrival. Great graphics. I didnīt like Super Mario 64 but i think i will love Mario Sunshine.

Zelda Gamecube:

This game was first showed in Spaceworld 2000. Nintendo chose to show a battle against Ganondorf and Link and many people were shocked by the great graphics.

Now itīs back, but Nintendo have changed the style to a cartoon based graphic. The gameplay will still be great but i hope that Nintendo will go back to the original Zelda, not the cartoon.

Monkey Ball looks set to be my favourite out of the Launch games.
Possibly slightly uninspiring in single player, but in multiplayer, it will RULE ALL!

Monkey Ball:

Segaīs first game for the Gamecube is about a monkey familie rolling inside a ball and collecting bananas. Could that be fun. Read on to find out.

Monkey Ball has good graphic and a detailed background. But is the Gameplay good enough? No, itīs not! Itīa the same thing over the hole game. Roll the ball around and collect the bananas around the level. Boring, Boring, Boring, Boring, Boring......
