I won GAD, I rule.

But I need to find what to chose. Thought I'd do it on here. Writing makes thinking easier.

Batman Vengeance - Cartoony third person beat-em-up with some stylish visuals. And Batman. Could be good...

Burnout - Fun racer. Maybe.

Crazy Taxi - I want this, but it's apparently not that good on Gamecube. Not really sure if that's a biased "itz 3 yerz olld!!!!1" thing or what.

Dave Mirra Freestyle BMX - Nah.

Donald Duck Quack Attack - Nah.

Driven - Nah.

ESPN Winter Sports - Nah... but I'll look into it. Bet it's crap, if it was great, definitely.

Fifa: Road to the World Cup - Nah.

Gauntlet Dark Legacy - I love fun little slashemup things. Gauntlet was the best... wonder what this is like.

International Superstar Soccer 2 - Probably. Like footy games, good for multiplayer. Not this time though.

Luigi's Mansion - Already claimed. I'd rather win it than buy it, but I really want to play it anyway.

NHL Hitz - Hockey is cool. I want this.

Sonic Adventure 2: Battle - Claimed. Fast and fun, nothing really revolutionary, but good fun all the same.

Spiderman - the movie - Didn't even know this existed. No, not for me probably.

Star Wars Rogue Squadron II: Rogue Leader - Definitely. I left this out because I was going to get the Jedi pack, but now SR have essentially ruined it *cries*, I'll claim this, and buy the stuff seperately.

Super Monkey Ball - Claimed. This rules.

Tarzan Untamed - No.

Tetris World - No.

The Simpsons Road Rage - Crazy Taxi with Simpsons sound effects. Probably worse game too.

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 - Maybe. Not yet.

Universal's Studio Theme Park - What the heck IS this anyway?

Wave Race: Blue Storm 2002 - No. Too realistic to be fun.


Star Wars it is then.

Yeah, I know. It's a good game on it's own, too. :0)

Now, got to spend half the day gathering the courage to use the phone so I can order my Gamecube... :0)

Or I could just send the form.

I'll send the form. I'm just a big wuss really.

I think Gauntlet has been delayed for a few weeks.

And I'm not 100% sure that ISS2 will make it for launch day either.

As you're getting Sonic Adventure 2, make sure you get Sonic Advance and a link cable, so you can try the linked features.

Yeah, I've claimed that too. Just wanted another launch game, that's all.

Star Wars rules, and I know this will.

Also have you considered Pikmin, its not at launch but should be a game worth owning.

Star wars is indeed a good choice, when i played it in America, i was bowled over the graphics and sounds. The first level is really good, theres an NBA game that is good though i can't rember the name.

What about Smash Bros, I know it isn't a launch game but I claimed it, and to adapt your words, it rules.
