Metal Gear Solid is no longer exclusive, and you can expect Burnout 2 to go multiformat after about six months.

firslty burnout 1 was on the cube and its not a very good game anyway, the second one doesnt look much better, GTA is only appearing on the ps2 console, its an exclusive, jsut like, the new resident evil series and metroid prime, amrio extra is on the cube and metal gear was exclusive as well, unitl now and maybe substance will appear on the cube in future,
heres another argument, sony dont have any good first party games!

depends on what you mean by third party.
1st party is the companys own in house development teams e.g Nintendo
2nd party is where the 1st party own a share in another games developer thus making the developer a second party developer like rare was to nintendo and now is to microsoft.
3rd party are independant games developers. like capcom.....
In terms of 3rd party support its all about business decisions-
e.g company A offers to buy your company, you refuse, company A offers fat cheque to make one of your gaming franchises exclusive to them whilst you are free to make games for other platforms.
Back to the first part, the 3rd party line up isn't poop, the non exclusive stuff is essentially what everyone gets and the exclusive titles vary from system to system.
Anyway at least there is a decent third party line up for the gamecube, where as one of the concerns of the N64 was that there wasn't enough support from 3rd party developers such as Capcom, which was usually met with the "quantity over quality" argument.
Now there is more quality on the release schedules for all systems.
I can't wait to play mario sunshine on my brothers GC, as he wants to play GTA 3 on my laptop.

By the way, MGS2 isn't a PS2 exclusive anymore, I saw an Xbox ad with Snake in it, so I presume they've brought out, or are bringing out a version for the *coughs*worst*coughs* console on the market that only really has two games I like anyway.
Bad third party support?
Have you seen what Capcom have just announced for us?

Burnout 2: Point Of Impact
Work began on a GameCube version before rumours arose that it would be a PS2 exclusive, and was scrapped for all other formats. The reality is that Sony own the rights to the game for six months. Whether it will be ported to the GameCube remains to be seen, though it is likely.
GTA: Vice City
Sony have the rights to this, and will do for the next four years. In fact, I doubt we'll ever see Grand Theft Auto on a Nintendo or Microsoft console as it's Sony's main exclusive and selling point. Chances are that they'll snap up the rights after this contract is over, too.
Metal Gear Solid
Konami seem reluctant to release games for the older generation on GameCube, looking at their current release line up. However, what with the success of Resident Evil, and Hitman 2 planned, I would be surprised if it made a GameCube appearance alongside the Playstation 2 and X-Box.
Look - three titles. All of which I've been rather disappointed by. Of course, I'd love to have them on GameCube but personally, when I can be enjoying classics such as Super Mario Sunshine, Resident Evil, StarFox Adventures, etc that beat the hell out of their rivals - I just don't mind.
