"The 'My ps2 is strutting round like it owns the place' thread"

Its true after a successful gamecube launch and many hours of gaming pleasure my ps2 had had something to say about it. Recently i have purchased FFX and V-Rally 3 and these are keeping me playing far more than any GC game about. Maybe Nintendo should look into producing some games that will last a lot longer than the GC games out at the moment. Give me a game that will beat the enjoyment of FFX!

When you get to play Starfox and Zelda you will realise just how mediocre FFX really is.

Oh and Mr Chainsaw, Mario Sunshine is apparently as big as Mario 64 was which in my mind is hella big.

I agree, and it's just as well because I haven't played my GC in a few weeks now. Medal of Honor (which isn't even that great) and FFX have kept me on my PS2.

SILENCE!!! Mediocre?! What the hell are you talking about?! FFX is a fantastic game. One of the best I've ever played, and I didn't have high hopes. Ocarina of Time was by far and away the best game I'd ever played before FFX but not anymore. First FFX game I've ever played and it is brilliant. Gotta play it a bit to get into it though. You can't just start off for an hour or so and then make up your mind.

But Starfox does look great. It looks a lot like Ocarina of Time in the style of the gameplay actually.

Naive fan boy?

There are just as many naive Playstation 2 fanboys as there are GameCube. Maybe I could consider you to be a naive FFX fanboy, but at the moment, I'm guessing you have more sense than to think FFX is the best game ever.

I myself am a fan of the games moreso than the console. I will always try a game before criticising, and will never judge on simple factors like length of the games. Not all Nintendo games are short, and just because the earlier games are, doesn't mean every one in the future will be.

Some people could argue that FFX is too long, I mean, 80 hours is a long time (if that's true).

is mario goinh to be long or just another short game on the GC? Anyway i'm looking forward to starfox adventures. When does it come out?

WHat we really need on Gamecube is a nice big adventure game and that's where Mario Sunshine and Starfox Adventures come in, just a shame that we have to wait so long for them. Still i'm sure games like Resi Evil, Die Hard Vendetta, Animal Crossing etc etc can make the wait less painful.

i'm not saying i dont like the GC, i'm not just some naive fanboy

The best game are yet to come, from September onwards Nintendo is gonna start releasing it's big guns. Games like Starfox Adventures will kick mediocre games like Final Fantasy into touch, have you seen any video clips of this little beauty? if you have then I think you will realise just how good this game will be.

I have played FFX and I do not like it. It's too much like FFIX just tarted up. Sure, different storyline, but it's not my type of game.

Skies of Arcadia or RPGs of similar style interest me a lot more in the same genre. Or even better, Action RPGs like Diablo 2 and The Legend of Zelda.

My brother enjoys FFX mind, but it's far from being the best game ever!

Mind you GS is coming to the GC and that is a long game so there is hope yet ;0)
