I don't care if you think Nintendo games are for kids, Playstations only good for sequels, and the Xbox is too big to ba a decent games console.
I can't be botheredtrying to convert you to my way of thinking, and I certainly don't feel like expressing my opinion on which console is best anymore.
You see I know what I like, and I'm happy with that.
To me, playing at being Mario is more fun than playing at being Solid Snake. Racing a kart is more fun than racing a car.
If I change my opinion, I'll change my choice of console, but whilst Nintendo and their second parties continue to release original games, I can see myself being satisfied with them.
Obviously not every game will be a revolution, but I'm pretty sure not to suffer from the same old, same old.
On May 3rd I could find myself in a haunted house armed with a vacuum cleaner battling ghosts. Think that sounds gay? I don't I think it sounds like a laugh.
Think Zelda now looks stupid? I don't I'm looking forward to playing it.
I have kids, and most of the games are suitable for them to see, but don't believe that's why I'm choosing Gamecube, it's entirely selfish of me, I want it, I want those games.
In a couple of weeks, when the Xbox is released there are going to be people sat at home enjoying them. Why not let them? You know, they won't struggle getting it through the door, and they'll get used to the controller, and I'm sure they'll have great fun. Halo is a great FPS, Project Gotham Racing is an adequate racer, Dead or Alive 3 is a passable beat 'em-up with the added advantage of bouncing breasts going for it!
For the past year and a quarter there have been people happily playing Playstation 2's. If you think it's rubbish, don't get one, but I don't reckon that those sat at home playing it reckon it's rubbish. I don't believe that they were 'tricked' into buying the console because it's cool.
So yeah, I know what I like, and that's what I'm going to get. I hope you all find some great games that you enjoy, but don't knock others for their choices, we're all different, in a similar kind of way...
We shouldn't really care what other people wanna do or say, and we should make OUR OWN descisions, and not be influenced by others!
I too am getting a GameCube, and i'm only one of 3 people in my entire year who're getting one!
Everyone else has a PS2, and they're telling me to get one, but I just ignore them and say that you may want one but I don't!
I've mainly chosen the GameCube because of the games, it's also another Nintendo console, and I loved the N64!
The price is an extra bonus for me, and I just hope I can get the money soon!!
They make me laugh. So they rule.
And Brad Pitt is still a damn good actor. No, I'm not gay. Really.
"Dead or Alive 3 is a passable beat 'em-up with the added advantage of bouncing breasts going for it!"
ROFL! Good yet somewhat controversial post Meka!
But we can only go by what we've heard and seen regarding the Xbox and GC, which is why its easy to say
Xbox - Massive lump of a pc disguised as a console.
GC - Rather homosexual looking.
I'm sure the rest is great!
