who's the best:xbox,ps2,gc

Well, if you're looking for more mature-themed games, there are a number of them to begin with:

Eternal Darkness - I have written an extensive review on this game in the Review Forum. it's located at the top of the Interests section on the main index.

Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes - I have written a review on this one as well.

Beyond Good & Evil - I have written a review of this game as well.

Metroid Prime - Best game on the console. Dark, action-packed and violent. No groutesque amount of gore, but there's plenty of death to be had.

F-Zero GX - I included it here because there's no way in hell a child could beat this game. It's one of the most challenging games I've ever played, and it's addictive in ways you cannot comprehend.

The entire Resident Evil series including the following exclusives:
Resident Evil: REmake
Resident Evil Zero
Resident Evil 4 (coming this winter) - If you haven't played REmake or Zero, you're out of your mind. RE4 is going to be the game of the year, I can almost guarantee it. It's the only game to have ousted Halo 2 from the top spot at Gamestats and it's technologically one of the most terrifyingly impressive games ever created. Go to IGN and check out their media section on the game. Your jaw will hit the floor.

Soul Calibur 2 - Granted it's a multi-platform title, but it's the best version of the three. Why? Because Link is in it, and Link is the man.

Metal Arms: Glitch In The System - Another multi-platform game, but a kickass shooter, nonetheless. Tons of robot carnage and foul language.


If you're looking for something different, the Gamecube has a wide variety of other highly entertaining titles as well.

Mario Kart
Mario Golf
Mario Party - All of these games are insanely fun. Granted, they are accessible to pretty much anyone, but that doesn't make them kid's games. I'd like to see a child beat Mirror Mode All Cup Tour in Mario Kart.

Star Fox Adventures - Fantastic game. Unbelievable graphics engine, awesome level design and gameplay elements, and it's fun from start to finish. Not necessarily a mature game, but it's not kid's fare either.

Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy - I've recently written an extensive review of this game as well. I've seen and played a bit of the XBox version, and I've seen video of the PS2 version and I can safely say that the GCN version is the best of the three. I actually looks better on the Gamecube in my opinion, and the controller just feels a lot more natural with the game than the XBox controller.

Skies of Arcadia: Legends - One of the best RPGs I've ever played, hands down. The Legends version is Gamecube exclusive, while the original was a Dreamcast title.

Super Smash Bros. Melee - Everybody has played this game, everybody loves this game. There's not much more to say.

Viewtiful Joe - I've written an extensive review of this one as well. monstrously challenging and tremendously entertaining.

And that's about half of the games I own for the console. This year, Gamecube will be getting RE4, Metroid Prime 2, Star Fox 2, Paper Mario 2, Tales of Symphonia, and a number of badass third-party titles like Second Sight and Geist. There's a ton of reasons to own a Gamecube, and a ton of reasons why it's my favorite console.

slim you now what fuck you and if you don't like it suck ma dick mother fucker whiteboy

You, SHUT THE FUCK UP.

Take it to the flame forum, where i WONT have to see your retarded, remedial attacks at each other. If i find you flaming outside the flame forum again, rest assured, i will temp ban you.

Um, I'm scared??

I'd like to see a child beat Mirror Mode All Cup Tour in Mario Kart.

Yeah... that was a son of a bitch for me to beat. Would constantly get bad luck, such as being hit by stuff repeatedly when I'm in first, only to put me into last. But I had also hit luck, such as being in 5th and taking the first 4 people out 5 feet behind the finish line with a blue shell. Fun stuff.

Raz wins this discussion =/

Looks that way, doesn't it?
I'd take him winning a discussion over some x-box fanboy going "OMG BUT EXB0XOR HAS BETTER GR4PHIC5 5O I7 0WNZ U" which is the typical argument you'll get from what I've seen.

By the way Raz, I'll be looking into those games and giving the cube another try.

I'd definitely recommend it. It's the cheapest of the three consoles, it's the smallest (so it takes up less spsace) it's the sturdiest of the three (in my experience), it's the second most-powerful of the three and it's got a fantastic game selection. I'm not knocking my PS2. I own one, and play it regularly. I'm just a huge fan of that Gamecube, and I think everybody should own one.

you now HandOfHeaven.fuck slim you don't need to worry. maybe hi is mamasboy i can ask wen i want or not for downloading warcraft 3. did i ask you slim. soo fuck you

First of all, learn to type. My eyes about popped reading that shit.
Second you can't discuss warez here, so no you CAN'T ask where to download warcraft whenever you want.

Calm down, he is learning english. Hence the bad grammer and such.

Try staying on topic. I have a PS2 and a GC and I play my PS2 a hella lot more. Im not insulting GC in any way. It has some really good games, but I am also used to the ps2. Right now I am glued into FFXI, online play, something that in my opinion knocks the GC into second place. put xbox in last cuzz all the people I know in real life that own one dont like it that much. Halo is the bomb, but besides that, I can get almost evryother game on PS2. If GC had online play, it would be bomb....SSBM:Online and stuff liek that. Right behind PS2.

Nintendo expirements a little more to, Zelda: Wind Waker cell shaded. The game and plot ws top notch for that series, the graphics just brought it down in a lot of peoples opinions. PS2 and GC are pretty close, it all depends on ur type of games.

To many bad experiences with sony's consoles, they all broke after the first year...Nintendo on the other hand, I've had my snes for over 5 years and it still worked like it was brand new same goes for my original nintendo.

I bought a PS2 and a GC within the same week after Christmas. Since then, I've played the GC 5 times and the PS2 500 times.

GC owns and this year it will be the christmas best seller. like look at all the fucking games nintendo announced at E3. xbox has halo 2 and doom 3 which is about it. playstation prob GTA 4 but like wtf played one, played em all. DO MISSIONS KILL STUFF REPEAT, watch boring end of movie FMV. like wtf. GC has zelda, prime 2, THE GREATEST GAME OF ALL TIME ((((MARIO TENNIS!!!!!!!!)))), re4, starfox, and so many more of there big firsrt party chars using it. o and btw NINTENDO shouldn't of sold rare :'(. even though rare is useless for XBOX, only nintendo could make them work ). FUCKERS!!!!!!

Xbox because it has Halo and soon Halo 2

Plus KOTOR, but that's on the PC... so...

A lot of games kind of suck now though. Most of the companies put graphics above gameplay nowadays. Although, considering I have all three, I don't care which one is better. I'm spoiled. Zelda is going to own, hopefully.

Holy schnikies! It's the invasion of the newbs!

Xbox because it has Halo and soon Halo 2

wow, your Halo 2 to my MP: Echoes and my Resident Evil 4. i win.

Lol... Halo 2 > all

Halo is awesome because of the multiplayer. The single player seemed pretty standard when I tried it. Granted, I didn't play a ton of it, but it didn't strike me as being anything better than any other top-tier FPS. I don't expect much more from Halo 2. A graphical improvement, a few minor gameplay tweaks and maybe an extra mode or two. Definitely worth the purchase if you own an XBox, but I wouldn't consider it anything to soil yourself over.

MP2 and RE4, on the other hand, are going to be phenomenal. MP2 will blow the first MP game away and RE4 will possibly be the game of the year. You can't beat the gameplay engine for RE4. Nearly everything in the game is interactive.

If you're running from a pack of enemies, climb up a ladder onto a second-story balcony. Then, you can kick the ladder down to prevent them from chasing you. You can then kick in the window, enter the house, runsh downstairs and push eveything in the house in front of the door to block your pursuers' path. They figure out what you're doing and whip a chainsaw out and cut through your blockade. So, you rush back upstairs, fly back out the window drop a molotov cocktail into the house and burn it to the ground. These are not things that you are required to do. You can do them if you want, or avoid them entirely. RE4 will have the most detailed gameplay engine in video game history, and because of that, it will possibly be the best game that comes out this year. Obviously, Nintendo thinks so, because they're undermining the release of MP2 by a full week in order to release RE4 the day after Thanksgiving.

exactly what raziel said. i have not been actually interested in the resident evil series until i heard about what this game was going to be like. granted, i've played all of them one time or another, a game that constantly tries to scare you, fuck with your head, and keep you on the edge of your seat in suspense because of that zombie 3 feet away and you taking 4 hours to reload your 9mm pistol does not usually strike me a fun game. now, i have given up my worries about the series, and i am totally going to get into this game. there is no doubt in my mind that this will be the turning point for the gamecube. and all of you ps2 people will all be crying because the best game ever is a gamecube exclusive. "geared towards a younger audience" you say? somewhat, but at least we get the best quality games possible.
