"The best of the GC games"

This is a list of some short reviews wrote for the best games on the game cube so far.



SUPER SMASH BROS. MELEE

This is one heck of a great beat-em-up that really shoes how a great fighter can be pulled of.Allthough this fighter might not be to every ones taste as

1:Thers only nintendo stars in it so this may only appeal to nintendo fans

2:It could get slightly repetitive as your find it a real drag to collect all of the 280 odd trophys,also the 1 player modes are far to easy to comlete(apart from event which,allthough a bit repetitive,is a good fun part to the game.

The high points are that this game boosts superb graphics and that amazing gamplay that nintendo is renowned for.

Graphics 8.5/10
+not one jagie in sight
-not the best you could get from the gamecube

gameplay 9.5/10
+comes natually and easy to get into
-A bit of a button basher

replay value 9.0/10
+Your always come back more with a few mates
-One player is a bit borring and repetitive but still quite fun

overall 9.0/10

WAVERACE BLUESTORM

Another Nintendo smash hit that shows hows how a jetskie can be done.Before it there was others such as the ps2 game splashdown,that was still fun but the water effects,character modals and overall graphics don't match up to the high standard set by waverace.All though waverace is great in the gameplay and graphics department theres a lack of those big jumps that every body hopes for allthough it has got plenty of small ramps to give you a taster to what could have been.But don't get me wrong,by no meens is this a bad game.

Graphics 9.5/10
+Superb water effects and very realistic
-errrh nothing really to moan about

Gameplay 9.0/10
+A really good controll system thats very easy to get the hang of
-No big jumps,only small ramps

Replay value 8.5/10
+great with some mates and one player is tough to finish
-once completed you will only come back if your interested in shaving split seconds of your best scores.

Overall 9.0/10


International Superstar Socar 2

This isn't the best footy game ever,but it is the best on the gamecube so far and is still well worth your money just like the other games in the series.But unlike the first ISS all but one of the players names are spelled corectly which makes the game one of the best for the die hard footy fans out there.The graphics(while not the same standard as virtua stricker)are still great and realistic.But what what the graphics don't have the gamplay more than makes up for it with great controlls that once used to them feel great.

Graphics 9.0/10
+realistic and smooth
-not great compared to virtua striker

Gameplay 9.5/10
+The best in any footy game
-Takes a bit of getting used to though

Replay Value 9.0/10
+Great multiplayer that fails to get boring
-One player can get boring

Overall 9.0/10

TONY HAWKS PRO SKATER 3

Join tony and all the other skaters in this great skating game.No one does it as good as the tony hawks games and that really shines through in this version,As there new tricks and joining move such as the revert that is great to deliver those superbly long combos.The norm is still there as well such as the specil moves and the great level design.But version is a bit more interactive aswell such as things to do with helping people to complet different tasks.This is great fun!

Graphics 9.0/10
+The best for any skater I have seen
-A lot better could have been done

Gamplay 9.5/10
+Super controlls and combo system
-A bit tricky for beginers

Replay Value 9.0/10
+Total fun and nothing but
-The one player is quite easy to get through

Overall 9.0/10

ROUGE LEADER

This is a great starwars game to complement the films.Rogue Leader is jaw-droppingly amazing. It’s the game that we switch on when we want to immediately impress someone. There isn’t a person alive who can watch the Battle of Endor(or any other part of this great game) with its umpteen Ties on screen at once, and not want a GameCube. From the lighting affects, to the photo-realistic textures, to the sheer number of polygons that the engine is throwing around, RL is an achievement above and beyond Nintendo’s in-house offerings.

Graphics 10/10
+uterly amazing
-nothing is wrong in the graphics department

Gameplay 9.5/10
+Again,great controlls and graceful sound effects
-Looping the rope round walkers is a chalenge to say the least

Replay Value 9.0/10
+your always want to look at the splender of the graphics
-You may get bored quikly

Overall 9.5/10

I thought you were referring to http://ukreviews.com!

Well, it's slightly helpful, with me wanting all three consoles, and having a PS2 and enough money for a GC.

So there is a specific reason that you didn't put it in the Nintendo forum then.
