"Gamecube or PS2? What Do u Think?"

I think that PS2 rules above all over games consoles. Me, being a video game addict, know all the reviews, ratings, and ups or downs of consoles. How could you say no to a PS2 with games such as Enter The Matrix, Splinter Cell, and many more breathtaking games out there? And with its high Quality, life like Graphics it is a big bonus. One argument for gamecube was its Differentiation of having the famous Mario 'plumber man' hitting the screens of all Gamecube owners. Now to be frank with you, Mario is alright, i particulary enjoy mario on N64, but Mario Sunshine isnt really anything to be extra pleased about owning. Weapons wise Mario Sunshine goea about as far as a waterblaster. Whereas take for example splinter cell - as far as weapons are this game has everything, all the stereotypes of different weaponry as well as a few gadgets thrown in for the fun of it. PS2 is a must buy for anyone who appreciates a brilliant console, if you dont - go buy rubbish gamecube and sit playing never knowing that there will always be something better...

True. And Splintercell and Enter the Matrix are multi-format games Matt9. Hardly worth getting a ps2 since better graphical version of these will be on GC and XBOX.

I have a GameCube, PS2 and Xbox. I enjoy all three, and don't like to rubbish either - unlike you, matt9, and your blind and shallow criticisms of Nintendo's machine. But if you must make me answer the question in your title, then I don't hesitate - it's easy;

GameCube. Hands down.

Indeed, as well as the xbox. Not only that, but they are probably better on the cube, or xbox.

Sniper is a 1000 tomorrow. Wow. Still look good for your age mind.

You mention Enter The Matrix and Splinter Cell as top PS2 titles, yet they both appear on Gamecube as well.

Ha.
