1/25/2007 4:06:28 PM

^it's great man, I was addicted for about 2 weeks or so.

1/25/2007 4:12:14 PM

somebody gave it to me...i also have a 360 and a ps2 so i didnt play the cube much...but for a $99 purchase price with that zelda disc, i had to get it

i'll probably play it some over the next week or so as my 360 is going to the shop to get fixed

1/25/2007 4:13:11 PM

Depends on what you like.

Tales of Symphonia is a fantastic RPG. Its a random encounter sort of game but the fighting is real time. You have 4 party members out at a time, each of which can be controlled by a different controller or the computer. It makes for a great 1-4 player RPG.

Viewtiful Joe is fantastic. Its a cell shaded side scroller. It can be really hard depending on the difficulty. The second one has pretty much the same plot as the first, but the fighting and unlockables are so awesome. I haven't played the 3rd yet. Speed up time, slow down time, zoom in for special moves, get points based on combos. I can't explain how wonderful this game was to play.

1/25/2007 4:16:40 PM

Ikaruga should also be on this list.

Not a GC game seedless. PS2, but you knew, so I'm just saying.

uh

Metroid

1/25/2007 4:28:12 PM

have there been any Kid Icarus games on anything since the 8bit NES?

1/25/2007 4:33:27 PM

Eternal Darkness. This game fucked with my head way too much.

I always enjoyed Soul Caliber 2 on gamecube more than any of the other systems.

1/25/2007 5:13:31 PM

one must always own at least 1 mario party game. random mario sports titles are also acceptable depending on your tastes (i have tennis, but not golf/baseball/soccer)

1/25/2007 6:06:32 PM

I really enjoy Mario Soccer. Tennis for the N64 was awesome, but I never tried it on the GC.

The reason that I like Nintendo's line of sports games is because they are simple and fun. Normal sports games bore me.

1/25/2007 6:13:36 PM

me too and even the mario ones get old, but they are generally better for multiplayer fun.

killer 7 was rather enjoyable and of course the donkey konga series cant go without mention.

1/25/2007 6:17:27 PM

Soul Calibur 2, though available on other consoles, plays the best on gamecube. And its the only game I really play on mine.

1/25/2007 6:34:48 PM

top 5 in order:
resident evil 4
smash brothers melee
metroid prime
zelda wind waker
mario kart double dash

if you have a group of friends around on a normal basis, you could probably get donkey konga and a full set of 4 bongos for $20-30

1/25/2007 11:35:19 PM

Wind Waker
Smash Bros.
Metroid Prime

There was a kid icarus on Gameboy

1/26/2007 12:58:23 AM

Mario Mix DDR

1/26/2007 12:19:06 PM

RE4 is great / damn right it is

1/26/2007 12:53:36 PM

Wind Waker is good, but the sailing really does get tedious.

Twilight Princess is also a good choice.

Both Prime games.

I also like Luigi's Mansion.

Super Mario Sunshine is also good, but a lot of people have complained that it tried to be Mario 64 but came up short. Having never played Mario 64, I cannot comment on the validity of this.

1/26/2007 1:12:12 PM

1. Alien Hominid
2. Ikaruga
3. MGS: Twin Snakes
4. SSBM
5. MKDD

1/26/2007 4:00:43 PM

^^It's a sequel to Mario 64, so saying that it tries to be Mario 64 doesn't mean much. The game, while a lot of fun at times, just falls drastically short of expectations. Way too many of the shines revolve around collecting coins (and that's not even considering the blue coins). Sometimes the camera goes all screwy too. At its best, the game is an absolute blast, I just wouldn't suggest trying to collect every single shine in the game as some of them are maddenlingly tedious.

Also if you have a bunch of friends, I'd also like to recommend Mario Party 6. It goes great with alcohol.

1/26/2007 5:47:03 PM

Its hard to find but metal gear solid: The twin snakes is awesome IMO... It is essentially the first metal gear solid with enhanced graphics and a few new cut scenes.... I am one of those people who never had the cube but now have a wii so I can play the gamecube games

1/26/2007 7:42:53 PM

Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes most definitely. It is the only place to find the original game MGS refreshed with better graphics and the newer control system. I wish they would release the original MGS revised on PS2 or something so I could play it again too.....

I enjoyed these
The metroids
Smash Bros
Mario Golf
Eternal Darkness
FIFA
NCAA Football
Resident Evil
Zelda (The sailing was boring)
Tony Hawks

it was on all systems, but everyone should play Beyond Good & Evil before they die

1/26/2007 11:40:44 PM

viewtiful joe.

1/27/2007 12:31:21 AM

RE4 was pretty much the best game ever

agreed, play this

1/27/2007 3:14:46 AM

it is funny, i played re4 for about 30minutes and just sucked balls at it. the controls seemed a little hard to get used to and it also seemed quite hard. once you get past that little intro though it is much nicer and was an entirely different game (which just happened to be one of the most entertaining ever).

1/27/2007 9:34:00 AM

Sorry, I'm gonna have to post for this game again. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKmU2ACUYHs

This is, without a doubt, my favorite GC game (the first and the second). The second has the same sort of plot as the first (think Ghostbuster and Ghostbusters 2), but the gameplay is much improved, as are the cut scenes. Its a superhero game and the main character is goofy, flamboyant, and extremely stylish. I highly recommend these games.
