Just been looking over the Christmas release schedule, and I have to say, the festive season does look the one to be jolly for 'Cube owners this year. In my opinion, quite easily the best Xmas exclusive line-up out of the three consoles and I don't think many can argue with that. In fact, with an intelligent price-cut and some decent bundle deals, Nintendo could "win" the Christmas sales over here in Europe; sailing past Microsoft and perhaps even Sony. Take a look at what's to come (I've picked out the highlights);

AUGUST/SEPTEMBER

Product Number 03
Xtreme G Racing Association
WWE X9
True Crime: Streets of LA
Soul Calibur II

OCTOBER/NOVEMBER

Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life
Viewtiful Joe
Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg
F-Zero GX
Star Wars Rogue Squadron III: Rebel Strike
Beyond Good & Evil
Medal of Honour: Rising Sun
Prince of Persia
Tom Clancey's Rainbow Six: Raven Shield
XIII
Tiger Woods 2004
James Bond: Everything or Nothing
Mario Kart: Double Dash
Pikmin 2
Tony Hawk Underground

DECEMBER

1080 Avalanche
FIFA 2004
Metal Gear Solid
Pokemon Colosseum
Phantasy Star Online III
Return of the King
Sonic Heroes
SSX 3
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

Bit of a duff topic, I know, but things haven't exactly been very interesting in here lately, have they? Anyway.. I reckon things look really good for GameCube on paper - everything now relies on those release dates holding strong, and a good strategy from Nintendo. So, what are you guys looking forward to? And what are your predictions for the GameCube this Christmas?

WWE X9, Mario Kart, F-Zero and PSO are the must haves for me.

The FPS games I will be getting on my Xbox. And that's a lot of games.

I'm personally looking forward to Sonic Heroes. I like the Tiger Woods series and Mario Kart and Pikmin 2 seem like worthy purchases.

Pikmin 2, TW 2004, True Crime and Mario Kart are all maybes.
The rest don't interest me really.

Then again, nothing for my PS2 interests me either.

Give the cube a price cut here, £100 for the cube plus game (plus GB player?) and I would expect a good christmas.

Oh, and some decent adverts.
