Not to bright are you?


It's actually an official promotion running until March 20th, buy a GC, get a free game.

Oh, I suppose you ignorant little cretins forgot to read this part, or did your mummies get bored of reading it for you?





"This seems like a very silly move on the part of Dixons. It is true that GameCube had a poor showing over the Christmas period, but it still has a top notch range of games, including Mario Sunshine, Super Monkey Ball, Rogue Leader, Eternal Darkness, and Resident Evil, to name but a few. It then gets better: over the next year we are going to see the new Resident Evil, Metroid Prime, Zelda, Final Fantasy, Phantasy Star, Mario Kart, and F-Zero. No other console has this range of Triple-A titles in development.

Hopefully other, more games-centric companies such as the GAME group and GameStation will not see this as a blow at all, but an opportunity to increase sales. Nintendo should also see this as a wake-up call to start backing the system in the PAL territories.

With the above games line-up it could be an excellent year for the system. Xbox has had a large blow with Halo 2 being put back to next year, and PS2 cannot produce the same range of Triple-A games.

PS2 does rule the roost in all territories and has a lead no one can catch. Second place is still up for grabs, however, and GameCube does have the better games. Nintendo just needs to push it in Europe!"

IMHO:

Gamecube is the 1st party option. XBOX is the online gaming and FPS option.
