With the Nintendo 64 gone (it still is alive in our hearts) its all up to the gamecube and game boy advance to beat the playstation and the X-box. But to beat these it needs more than amazing power, gameplay and graphics ect. It also needs good games but what will they be like? So far they look brilliant like games like Lugis haunted mansion, Tony hawks 3, (hopefully) perfect dark two, pikimin, Donkey Kong Racing and many more.

The games should be brilliant especially with the GBA linking up like a controller! With games like kirby tilt n' tumble and other great games. If you don't know what happens in Kirby tilt n' tumble you play on the gamecube but if you fall you play on the game boy advance and try to work your way back up to the gamecube!!

well I have to go now bye everyone!

ExG3 is an enhanced port from the PS2.

They found the Gamecube's power easier to harness and managed use the superior hardware more effectively.

And Mr Grim, you can sleep safe that none of the GC games are GBA "reliant" but many will connect with the GBA for better options.

XG3 looks like a direct port from the PS2 - it was originally an excluisive to PS2 as well. Anyway...I am completely stunned by Luigi's mansion - may face dropped when I witnessed the graphics on it - the graphics and simply incredible. It's like playing with the intro grahics of most PSone games, even better.

Then there is Star Wars: Rogue Squadren II - this time you can even move forward in the gameplay, making you feel as if you are there in space freny action. The graphics, once again are terrific, and most of all, it's an official Star Wars story; no made up names like other SW games.

Rogue Leader footage will be on a video free with a new magazine called CUBE, released on Thursday.

It'll have plenty of other clips too.

Good quality Spaceworld footage too, rather than shoddy unfinished E3 clips from the NGC video...

I have just seen the sreen shots for rogue leader.........
Woah
I haven't looked at the quicktime video yet because the mac in the computer room I'm using plays the sound loudly and I have no way to turn it down though.

Looking forward to starfox adventures and etermal darkness as well.

They will rule! No matter what they look like they will be brilliant just like the N64 games or as some people still say the ultra64.
