"Why The GameCube Will Fail"

I was as eager as anyone to get my hands on a GameCube so much so that I took my PS2 and nearly 70 games down to EB to trade in. I got £360 which wasn't that bad and I bought a GameCube and 6 titles.

I had problems with it from the off the picture quality was crap, and the games were much better. Luigis Mansion was alright but it's for kids the same can be said for Sonic Adventures 2 Battle, Super Smash Bros etc.

I promptly took my GameCube back and I'm not the only one, a friend of mine has had every games console ever produced and he still has them now, but he also bought a GameCube and took it back the same day.

I decided to go out and buy an Xbox and what a surprise that was, it's absolutely fantastic and I know have nearly 50 titles. I can't wait for Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell (xbox Exclusive).

With nearly 150 titles due out before Christmas and more than 300 in development, Xbox is the future of gaming. Every developer in the UK is currently developing for Xbox, the same can't be said for Nintendo.

My zoo has goats, donkeys and some other crap... I haven't been there in probably a decade or more... it's still falling apart... oh, and if you go there at night, there are people burying dead bodies...

;-)

I thought you were being serious about the black Gamecube thing then Sibs, but then I saw the smiley and I knew you were joking. Thank God for smileys.

Okay then, my zoo has pandas and lizards and bins and a sandwich. What does your zoo have?

This topic was fun while it lasted... talking about zoos and cows and ... human-cow-pig crossbreeds...

But Gamecube roolz cos it iz purple.
Exsept da black ones coz dey is black.

WHAT! A broken SMILEY? ;(

NEVER!!! How will I survive after this.

Anyway, who cares? They only just released Xbox and you're already talking about the next generation of consoles... this lot have only just come out... (except for PS2 obviously...)

Intel and Nvidia aren't the only hardware developers out there!
