If you know me, you'll know that i'm a BIG Nintendo fan!

But recently i've been hearing things which lead me to think that the Gamecubes not likely to come out in the UK till next summer!

This is leaving me with mixed feelings. Do I wait for the Gamecube and just continue to play on my N64 and Dreamcast, or do I go out and splash out on a PS2 or a GBA!

The main reason for me not getting a PS2 now, is that I don't really know if there enough games good enough to warrent the purchase! My best mates had one since it came out and he said the PS2 FINALLY had a good game when he got GTA3 the other day.

What decent games are there on the PS2 which would make it a worthy purchase???

Gran Tourismo 3 - Well i've already got Gran Tourismo 2 on the Playstation and as far as I can tell this is just the same but with better graphics. {even though if I did get a PS2 i'd definately get this game}

Grand Theft Auto 3 - Gotta be comming out on the PC at some point

WWF Smackdown 3 - Wrestling games are not really my thing

SSX Tricky - My brothers got SSX on his PS2 and after playing it, I still prefer 1080 snowboarding on the N64. I really want 1080 2 on Gamecube.

Metal Gear Solid 2
Final Fantasy 10
These two games are the main games that may make me splash out on a PS2. Anyone know when there comming out?

Hmm..... well. After reading what games people have mentioned to make me want a PS2, I have been put off again. Thanks! I've nothing against the PS2 or the games on it, but there's not really any games comming out that I REALLY want. Wave Race, Mario Sunshine, Rogue Leader, Pikmin, Resi Series, and most of those are launch titles, These are titles I REALLY want!

Well I guess one reason for my change is that I bought Turok 3 on my N64 today, and realised that there's still life in the old baby yet!

Well only time will tell as to what my next console will be.

Let's just hope that the Gamecube isn't delayed until next summer and i'll be alright!
