I finally got to play one of these yesterday, itried to keep an open mind of it and i went up to one of them pod thingys and watched some 5 year old attempt to play luigi's mansion, i thought at once of *nintendo = kiddy's games" after seeing him play it but decided to get rid of that thought when i saw an even younger kid play jak and daxter on the PS2 next to him.

When i finally got my go i had a good go on Luigi's mansion but paused the game to look at the Cube and controller which i will get to after the games.

I only tried two games but they were both playable demos.

Luigi's mansion is a decent platformer, wont be as good as mario sunshine but anyways the graphics seen top notch and better then Jak & Daxters, the controls in the game took me a while to get into but they are fine.

Star wars rogue leader is also an amazing game, the demo seemed pretty short compared to the luigi's mansion one and even though the graphics are better then luigi's mansion but didnt like the game as much because i kept dying :D.

The console is small and doesnt really look like a lunch box and it looks like it would fit perfectly in my bedroom, the box screams out NEXT GEN to you instead of the boring black of the PS2 and the XBOX.

The control is comfortable and the first thing i thought of was "this looks like a PS2 Controller but with the funny bits at the bottom" it does look like a mangled PS2 controller in my opinion, you might think differently.

Well it werent meant to be this long but any ways just thought yuo would like to here my opinion of the Cube.
