Activision, Codemasters and Electronic Arts are stopping all development for the Gamecube.
They all make pretty crappy games on the whole, but EA support pretty much guarantees software sales in the west. Gamecube looks to be on shaky ground now, which is a real shame.

Actually I don`t think that's true anymore, except perhaps in Japan. Over the last few months at least, the X-Box has been outselling the GC about 2 to 1 every week. (Though those figures came from Digitiser which isn`t all that reliable).

Enforce that thought then, and go treat yourself to a shiny new 'Cube.

The GC will always stay above the XB. Always.
It just will, and there's nothing you can do about it.
I had a vision.
Trust me, I'm a lunatic.
I can't explain it - but the Cube will stay strong. And that's that.

Activision aren't pulling out - that's SEGA Sports. Codemasters have (without reason) pulled all 'Cube games from the release schedule, and EA have lowered prices in Australia due to poor sales. This is just blown very much out of proportion.
The 'Cube won't fail - it's got the backing of Nintendo and Capcom, and is beating the X-Box. Oh, and if EA tried making a decent game - maybe their sales will go up. Perhaps the games standards of GameCube owners are higher, due to the quality control enforced by Nintendo?

Yeah but they're not publishing it in Europe. It's EA & Nintendo, I dunno who's doing the Xbox version.
Isn't Soul Caliber a Namco game?
What's so indignified about me picking up cheap quality games?
I picked up a second Dreamcast + controller for £26 at the weekend. You really want the Gamecube to suffer the same indignity?
well, to be honest, I tink that's rubbish, but even if it weren't, I have 18 games on my Cube, more than I ever had on my N64, and with the current release schedule, I'll likely have more than 30 games before the Cube goes "down the pan", so i really don't think it'll make any difference to me.
