    Metroid Prime tbh

    especially if you were a fan of Samus' previous outings.
    it's a great game in its own right though

    SSBM for drunk fun, F-Zero GX for a great racer, TS2 because you like FPS (play as the monkey to be REALLY annoying!), Resident Evil/RE0, Zelda, Prince Of Persia, Beyond Good and Evil, Mario Kart...
    though for me it's gotta be Metroid Prime. My favourite game ever.

    Dont think it was mentioned - Eternal darkness, great horror game, silent hill like.
    Also monkey ball and monkey ball 2 are great multi player games.

    Really looking forward to Resident Evil 4, I must say. Oh, and the new Zelda. Spooge.

    Metroid Prime 2: Echoes is out on 15th November in the States *cough*freeloader*cough* well if NoE does its usual...though Iwata himself said at E3 that they'd delay the Japanese release to get it out in Europe before the end of 2004.
    Zelda? Well into next year.
    Ditto Resident Evil 4, theyre saying February for the states.

    Animal crossing is genius, its about the only reason to have GC appart from MEtaroid


  • Registered Users Posts: 53,907 ✭✭✭✭Headshot

    it's an RPG....your aim is to pay off your mortgage :D

    Animal-Crossing.com has all the info. It's very adictive and playable.

    Zelda wont be released before November 2005, we'll be lucky to see it till March 2006 :(
    RE4 has been delayed until after christmas US apparantly.
    Metroid prime2, sometime before christmas US, probably march 2005 here..

    id say metroid prime and viewtiful joe are the best gamecube games out there.

    I cant wait for metroid prime 2, the new zelda, viewtiful joe 2, killer 7

    id really like to see transformers on the gamecube. id be just transforming for hours.

    monkey ball and its sequel for life !

    think the 3rd installment is due in sept.


  • Registered Users Posts: 53,907 ✭✭✭✭Headshot


    killer 7 what type of game is that and would you think it be any good


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,889 ✭✭✭evad_lhorg


    i dont know what type of game its going to be its weird. you play this guy called smith and hes got 7 personalities. the graphics look amazing and i love seeing the people getting shot and being blown into about a million droplets of blood. it seems to be a real original idea. hopefully its not a let down

    The first one is good, but super monkey ball 2 is just really annoying. Some of the levels require 0 skill and an infinite amount of luck. I got stuck on the level where it's a really long straigh run, but half the sections spin around, knocking you off, then the other half spin around knocking you off. It's a bit ridiculous really. The first one is great though, but you'll need more than one controller.

    Agreed about the single player in SMB2, but the multiplayer just rocks!


  • Registered Users Posts: 189 ✭✭m4cker


    ok its not a game cube exclusive but Worms 3d is probably one of the best multi player games around

    Europe is getting Metroid Prime 2 about a week after the americans. Not much point getting it imported then unless its a bad pal conversion which I doubt it will be. The Japanese have to wait a few months after the US and Europe.


  • Registered Users Posts: 53,907 ✭✭✭✭Headshot


    what a game i got metroid prime last week and i cant put it down its like im hooked on it what f**king class game im speech less i never had this much much since i played ninja gaiden on the xbox

    Prime's the best game on ANY console at the moment. How far have you gotten so far? I'm on 98% items... argh!
