Ok ive got a PS2 and an Xbox but not a Gamecube, Is it worth me buying one?
Its got one or two good games i know that but does it have enough to keep me happy for a long time?
Also what would be the best ones to get?

Put it this way. If I had a PS2, I would own, maybe, 10-12 games.
If I had an XBOX, I would own maybe 3-5 (mainly because I have a PC, which is far superior for numbercrunchin/FPS games).
I have a GC, and just under 40 games, the only reason I don't have more is because of the ludicrous amount I've already spent getting the ones I have.In an ideal world, I'd have well over 50, after christmas, more than 55.
Gamecube is THAT good.
Am I worried that it isn't popular? No. Neither was Evil Dead when it first came out. It was still truly class though.

Yes get one i'm in the exact same position as you i have a PS2 and a xbox and even though i should be spending my money on getting a car and looks like a might have a girlfriend now woohoo.
I have preordered a new black cube on amazon for £74.99 thats cheap i can't wait to play all those original cool multiplayer nintendo games especially the rogue squadron games and mario kart.
Plus it looks the nicest out of the consoles i reckon plus means i can talk to all these nice nintendo forum people as well :P

I think he knows that, just saying that its one of his most anticipated games.

Erm, I'd hate to break the news, but that's a PS2 exclusive in the UK.

GC is a bargain at £79.99. Amazon are already selling a GC with Zelda for £94.99.
In the next couple months alone, the GC has probably got the strongest line up: Viewtiful Joe looks awesome and along with Pro Evo 3 is my most awaited game, F-Zero looks fast, Mario Kart is just Mario Kart then theres a 1080 avalanche, Star Wars Rebel Strike...
Thats not to mention the back catalogue on the GC!!

You'd be crazy not to own a Gamecube now really.
The price is very low, and there are some fantastic titles on the near horizon (Viewtiful Joe, Mario Kart, F-Zero, Rebel Strike, 1080), the far horizon (Final Fantasy, MGS Twin Snakes, Resident Evil 4), and a load of classic games already available, many now going cheap.
People who don't own Gamecubes are fools, yes fools, and they risk missing out on some sweet gaming.

Ok, you're not a 'tard.
Is that because I actually value all 3 consoles to one extent or another without making stupid comments about stuff I don't have a clue about?
---
No, it's because you picked on me and I got scared.
If you don't know about something then why the hell comment on it?
---
Because it's my right as a human being to have an opinion on something as irrelevant as a computer; regardless of how much knowledge I have of it.
Its just a completely bull sheet statement which you said without any prior knowledge of the Xbox or PS2.
---
I have got knowledge of these, just not as much as you it appears. I based my opinions on knowledge I DO know.
As for research, whats that about? I own all 3 consoles so where does the research part step in?
---
The research part came in when I said I couldn't be bothered (etc) doing research to find out about these games. Like I said earlier, I based my opinions on the things I do know. It's what we do you see.

Oh how I laugh in your stupid face. You didn't even know what KOTOR was yet feel free to judge a console which you clearly know nothing about.

Point being?
If I deemed it important enough (WHICH I DON'T) to do any research beforehand, I would have done.
So, back to the "research" part. You need to get a life, and stop doing so much "research", you "'tard".
