As loads of games companies have been leaving the PS2 recently to come to the GCube, who do you think is next to join in the fun on GC??
Wouldn't you all like to see the likes of Namco and their games on our beloved console, just think of tekken 5, on the GC, it could be possible.
What companies would you love to see coming our way??
Personally, just to go off the subject, i wouldn't mind if Buffy The Vampire Slayer came to GC, but I guess that's not off to happen? What a shame, I think the GC would do the game more justice than Xbox.

The best survival horror game ever, better than the un-scary boring puzzle-ness that is Resident Evil.

If you liked Devil May Cry, and are looking forward to the sequel, check out Project Devil. It's a very similar game made by the same people and it's rumoured to be a GameCube exclusive.

Hey all i want is Devil May Cry 2, but i bet they will redo it for Gcube seen as they've started on ResEvil.
Actually Gamezfreak did spam when he came to this forum, so there!
Again sorry to all those who i upset, grow up, it just my opinion!

It was at ECTS, where it picked up "Best Console Game" award.

Okay I got the Pro Evo bit wrong, still not much of a line-up really IMO. I'm sure you think the same about the Gamecube so I don't wanna get into this argument.

Well, thats the understatement of the year, maybe if some people actually checked what they said to see if there was any evidence even slightly justifiable to that statement, then we could have some proper arguements, as to "I gamecube person, must put-down everything else" blah blah blah, support your own console, screw everyone elses

Screw Rare, no one cares, so what if Microsoft are trying to buy out the competition for their own personal satisfaction, no one cares!

PES2 is actually gonna be one of the games of the year, I remember it picking up an award already, about 3/4 od months before it's release, I think it was "The best console game" at some event.

Now, I see the PS2's line-up being the strongest of them all, please give me a list of Ninty's future line-up, other than Mario and Zelda, they really don't appeal to me.

I have a GC and a PS2, don't say its dead, the only console I don't like is the Xbox, it only has one game I like.

PS2 has loads of good games coming out for it like Vice City, Onimusha 2 and other stuff. Don't dis!

Pro Evo 2 - Great game, but out on GameCube too.
Grand Theft Auto: Vice City - Amazing game.
Kingdom Hearts - FF with Disney Characters? Doesn't look too good...
Smackdown 4 - Looks pretty decent. I'll consider it.
Project Zero - No idea, but I've heard it may be out on GameCube.

> Now is the time to own a PS2 IMO.

It's got some great games planned, but compared to the GameCube's line up, it's rather poor.

Sony don't own Namco. They do have a very close working relationship, though.

PS1 was based on an enhanced version of Namco's System 11 arcade board, which is why - at the time - it featured perfect conversions of Namco's arcade games.

Now it's turned around, with Namco developing an arcade board based on Sony's PS2 hardware. Yes, arcade Tekken 4 runs on a modified PS2.

As for the RIP nonsense... well, the less said about that the better!
