Just got the Gamecube
« on: May 17, 2002, 06:02:30 PM »
My Daughter loves the resident evil games so I just got her a Gamecube and the R.E. game and a memory card. I am very impressed with this tiny little console. R.E. looks fantastic. The lightning effects are very  nice. The sound is excellent also. She is playing it through a surround sound system. I will be trying out this console after she finishes the R.E. game. I don\'t want to watch her play to much of the game because I want to be surprised when i get my turn. What I did see looks excellent. For the next 2 weeks I will be using her PS2 and playing Code Veronica and GTA3. We now have the big 4 systems. I have the Dreamcast and the Xbox. She has the PS2 and the Gamecube.  

It will be nice to get to use the PS2 for an extended amount of time. Any PS2 game suggestions for me to try out? Also what else is good on the Cube???

Gaming rocks.

Thanks for the info mm. What about that basketball game? I saw it running in the store and it looked pretty good. I\'m a sports game nut, maybe I\'ll give it a rent.

Has everyone forgotten Super Smash Brothers?  Oh wait isn\'t this the board where everyone hates it?  I liked it.  

I like Wave Race alot but that might not be your thing.  Awesome game.

God, SSB is a must have... how can anyone overlook that game.  I still play it on a ALMOST daily basis, at least a couple times a week.

oh man.. your daughter is playing Resident Evil 1, and you.. your stuck playing Code Veronica??  oh man, i feel sorry for you..

oh sh1t!  i just realised.. there are some spoilers in Code Veronica that will ruin the first game for you  :)  so avoid it until you play RE1

but GTA3 should last you until she has finished RE1, so yunno.. plus theres heaps of other PS2 games you could check out as well to pass your time.. RE1 cant be that big can it??  i know the original wasnt

note:  this post was made assuming you never played the original RE  :)

Get Pikmin and Super Smash Bros. Your daughter may like Luigi\'s Mansion. It\'s short, but pretty fun while it lasts.

I can\'t wait for this Summer/Fall...Eternal Darkness, Turok, Star Fox, Mario, hopefully Zelda, Rayman 3, Metroid, more RE games...*drools*

first tekken for fighting

gt3 for racing

ace combat 4 is pretty fun

dynasty warroirs 3 will take up much of your time and your life to complete it
