Similar to last year, we are now about to enter another drought satge for the Gamecube. Take yourselves back a year and remember what happen. We were given SSBM, Pikmin and a few more games and after mid June it all went incredibly dull. Nothing till early September!

Now it's the present and we find out the likes of Mario Kart and F Zero aren't out till Novemberish! The earliest decent game looks to be Soul Calibur 2, however it's onl;y been penciled for Autumn. I know it sounds childish but I thought this wasn't going to happen again. Mario Golf out in July for America while we get it next year! What's going on? Any thoughts, release dates or updates post it here.

zelda shouldnt take you too long to finish especially if u r spending all ur time on it its easy n luigi's mansion i completed in jap within a few weeks so if u cant do it you cant b over good at it from what ive heard pikmin is easy aswell. although i do agree with your choice of games you seem to pick out a lot of the better games and some of the challenging ones

Drought?

This Friday - Ikaruga and Skies Of Arcadia Legends.

June - Splinter Cell, Wario World, Hitman 2.

July... well... yes, but then I'll be able to catch up on all the games I've still to complete.

Rest of the year - Pikmin 2, Mario Golf, Mario Kart, Final Fantasy, Harvest Moon, etc etc etc.

Out of my games, I've completed Zelda (today), Mario Sunshine, even though I need just 2 blue coins, Resident Evil, Mortal Kombat, Timsplitters 2, Pikmin, Luigi's Mansion, Die Hard, Smash Brothers and WMX8. I don't do too bad. However, I have a PS2 with many uncompleted games.
