I don't believe I have dragged myself away from that "Thing" its so damn addictive!
GameCube. Mine arrived today, and so did Rouge Leader (GAD Win Feb) I am very very pleased with SR. I would like to thank SR for getting my GC to me on release. Im delighted.
Ok, impressions.
I got a black one, its smaller than you imagine. The disks, their TINY! Its so wonderfully crafted and its full of Nintendo quality. If you have never held the controller, its amazing. It fits so well. I just played for 2hours straight and my hands are fine.
Its great to be back in business so to speak, I sold my N64 to my sis like 2months back and I have been waiting for GC ever since. And it didn't dissapoint at all.
Graphically I would say its on par with X-Box. I played Halo, and played Rouge Leader, if anything GC is better. The lighting is so good, its perfect, amazing, delightful, smashing. Its fandabbydotius!
The sound is crystal. I have had NO slowdowns at all and I have seen like, 100+ objects on Rouge Leader. Oh yeah, by the way, Rouge Leader is class. Action packed amazingness. Im not a Star Wars fan but this game is cracking. Loading times? Its as fast/faster than N64. You don't notice them at all.
Basically.
Round up.
Graphically its amazing, 10/10
Sound is top notch 10/10
SR for delivering it on time 10/10
Rouge Leader 10/10
No loading times 10/10
No slowdowns 10/10
Disk Size 10/10
Its a great console and im itching for another go on Rouge Leader! Only one problem, I dont have a memory card which is essential. Im going down town to get one tomorrow and I have £35 credit from SR (Thanks.) So any idea's for another game?
Im looking in RBS's direction because he had like 6 GAD GC games. Which one is the best? I want a racing game or something. SSBM any good? SMB? Burnout? Anyone got Burnout? Anyone with footy games? I need idea's.
Great job Nintendo, I love you.
Thanks SR, I love you too.
If you haven't got a GC then buy one, if you have pre-ordered one and you haven't got it, then pray it comes soon because I couldn't live without my baby, my GameCube.
Im going to play on Rouge Leader again now, the explosion effects are sweet, the scream of the TIE fighters is spine chilling. I haven't got past the first level yet, I can get to the trench and Darth Vader comes, how do I kill him? That black caped son of a gun! Eat my laser fire!
GC is breathtaking. Get one.

Go into the cockpit first and then hold onto the X while shooting... thats what I normally do. Anyways! I am going to have to ask you for help, I will go and work out what I need help with.
I love it. Super Monkey Ball.. LOL
I haven't laughed at a game since Conker that much!

GASMASK to get the computer percentage thing, u DONT use the weird color display. the more you use it, the more your percentage goes down, you must be using it all the time if you get 0. i always get 100% on the first level because i dont use X button. your percentage goes down because the computer is supposed to make things easier.
er-no, you said you need help. what you need to do his go past the walkers, so they are just behing you, THEN deploy they rope thing and go round they in circles.

heh, i got 3 PS2 cards already.
Cheerz SR ;)
(SR sent me two memory cards when i only ordered one)
I'm not complaining....
I'm trying to resist the urge to turn GameCube on...
I think it may have to displace the 16 game owning PS2 in my room...Originally GC was gonna stay downstairs and PS2 in my room so i can Watch DVDs in my bedroom...but i never expected Super Monkey Ball to be this addictive...
