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.

I still have to complete ALL my games :-)

Luigi's Mansion I'm about to battle Bowser, but i couldn't do it and then I got Zelda.

Zelda I will probably never complete at this rate.

Pikmin, I'm on like Day 12, so still a fair way to go, regardless of whether I actually complete it in time or not.

Monkey Ball 2, I'll try and finish unlocking the Mini-games, but I won't complete story mode - i hate it.

Burnout 2, I shall probably complete one day, but Zelda is still a major time-filler at the mo.

I was supposed to get metroid prime sometime and complete that as well..
:-D

Nah, if you buy Hitman 2, Viewtiful Joe and Skies of Arcadia, it will last you up to November at the very least. SoA should last most of that time, with VJ and Hitman to fill up gaps in between when SoA gets a little frustrating.

Didn't to me... Sunshine was insane fun from start to finish.

Pure fun... nothing else... pure concentrated down to its purest form.

I've completed just over half of my games. Pretty good considering I've got 27. Plus I'm right near the end, or on the last boss, on many.

Sunshine did get boring, but I had to finish so I had an excuse to by Zelda.

With any luck, Mario 128 should be better.

if ya need to while away the time, get a copy of Ikaruga for the GC, it's amazing and VERY hard, it'll prolly take you until november to finish :)

personally i'm waiting for Viewtiful Joe, XIII, and FF: Crystal Chronicles... that's if i can ever tear myself away from The WInd Waker :)

Looking at my old GC games, I still have to complete Resi Zero, Eternal Darkness, Star Fox, Star Wars, Metroid Prime and Monkey Ball 2. I'll be busy in summer.

Heh

VC is a massive step down from GTA3.


Get GTA3, that can at least keep you entertained for a couple of weeks.
