So PLEASE give me your input on this and help me decide how to spend my hard earned cash which i have not used for 5 years!!
Though I am not going to underestimate the X-Box, it may surprise me yet, it may surprise all of us. Most people have already been crossing this console off there 'Must Get List', but I am not going to jump to conclusions. I still may get one!
Between the Gamecube and the X-Box, I am quite undecided! But I am getting a PS2 at Christmas, but I love Final Fantasy games, so there's no way I am turning my back on them. What a dilemma!
If you want to play great games, with superb visuals and gameplay to match - get a GameCube.
However, if you want to play games that have the visuals that look barely improved from the first PS2 game, and want to have an awful time playing it too, then I suggest you waste £300 on a VCR-sized black box.
Shameful old Microsoft.
SHOCKY
You know you can guarentee loads of QUALITY games if you do!
:)
Oh you got the price of it wrong by the way, it's only gonna cost around 150-200 quid when it's released here!
No it depends what your tastes are really, i personally am going for the Gamecube, the X Box hasn't really got much that intrests me, there's not enough exclusive top of the range titles to make it worth a purchase.
I would say go for X BOX if you like playing the sort of games you find on the PC, oh and if you want the best graphics.
Or go for Nintendo if your looking for fantastic exclusive games that you won't find on any other system. Star Wars Rogue Leader anyone? The thing about the Gamecube is all the games are aimed at being fun with a capital F (oh dear) if you can look past the some would call kiddy graphics on the games (though I don't think they are) then you will find some of the best games for years.
Oh and do you really want to hand any more of your hard earned cash to the fool that is Bill Gates?
