i have a ps2 and an x box and have to say i am completly happy with them, the ps2 blew me away when i got it but the x box has nealry killed me, it is just so f***ing good.

now, i have seen a few cheep deals on eBay and in my local paper for the gamecube (uk and us) i just want to know from nintendo fans some REAL facts as to why the GC is worth getting, its power is feeble compard to the X Box and the games such as zelda, mario and pikmin dont apeal to me as im a mature gamer and dont want the cartoony or kiddie games, i prefer games such as GTA3 , MGS2 and halo.

so is their anything that the GC can offer me? or is it not worth me getting one?

(please just serious posts, i dont want any - get the GC its the best. I want reasons and facts, and please dont say - get it cause its smaller. to me that makes no difference to me whatsoever)

My reply...

I'm a mature(ish) gamer too, and yes I do know my stuff!! I'm unbiased too, so can argue any case for any console posted by any **ahem's** on these forums too!! :-D

Kiddy gamers ey?

Hmm, in my day we told them this - Gameplay counts for all, and those blasted 'mature gamers' can go west with the Hun as far as I am concerned!

That may well be true. But newbies that come here and just spam a load of nonsence really do get on peoples nerves! As for you, well you sound like you've got a head on your shoulders so you might just survive the test of time!

Good luck!

i know that you guys have 'worked hard' to get your "reg" status but just dont think that "newbie" means idiot. ive been readin as much as i can about all major consoles (not just Nin ones, my favs) for the past 4 or 5 years. just remember that ye guys, even "notables", all started off as "newbies".
