Fav Gamecube game?

GrumPy

My favorite's are resident evil4, and twin snakes, is there any other good games other then zelda and metroid worth buying?

Mr E

Viewtiful Joe 1+2
Paper Mario
Starfox Assault (get it cheap if you can, because you'll finish it quickly)
Prince of Persia (Sands of Time and Warrior Within)
Killer 7 (might not be to everyones taste)

GrumPy

whats paper mario like? might get it, i aint got any mario games

skywalker

For me its all about the monkey ball series. Amazing fun with a few friends (& optionally a few beers) in either the main game, or monkey flight mode.

Mario Kart is worth a look as always.

Retr0gamer

Nothing beats Resident Evil 4 on the GC. Metroid Prime 1+2 do come close. F-zero GX is one of the best racing games ever. Best multiplayer games would be Super Smash Brothers Melee and Mario Kart DD.

jcoote

twin snakes or monkeyball 2

Rhyme

Resident Evil 4, Timesplitters 2, Twin Snakes and Paper Mario 2 (albeit without replay value for me)

GrumPy

Could any Gamecube heads compile a top 10 list of must have's? trying to get the collection sorted out before the next gen!

Rhyme

Retr0 will have a definitive list but this is mine from whats freely available...

Legend of Zelda Wind Waker
Resident Evil 4
Resident Evil 1
Paper Mario 2
MGS: Twin Snakes
Any Monkey Ball game
Timesplitters 2

...thats all i can think of at the moment, my Gamecube is in someone elses house

rainbow kirby

My list of favourite GC games... Includes Metroid and Zelda, but it wouldn't be a GC list without them

Metroid Prime
Super Smash Bros Melee
The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker
Super Monkey Ball 1 and 2 (1 is better single player, 2 is better multiplayer)
F-Zero GX
Resident Evil 4
Metroid Prime 2: Echoes
TimeSplitters 2
Mario Kart: Double Dash
Burnout 2
Viewtiful Joe (haven't played 2)
Beyond Good and Evil
Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time

(and if you like RPGs... I don't... but Tales of Symphonia, Paper Mario, Skies of Arcadia and Baten Kaitos.)

Wasn't too fond of Eternal darkness either. Great story, music and atmosphere but playing it just felt a wrong.

Takeshi_Kovacs

best game would have to be Resident Evil 4, in fact it is the best game out of all consoles this generation... although it would be second best if the new Zelda was out before Christmas,

Gummy Panda

Metroid Prime
Resident Evil 4
Metroid Prime 2
Paper Mario
Legend of Zelda: WW
Resident evil
Legend of Zelda: four swords
Super smash bros melee
Super Mario Sunshine
F Zero GX
Super monkey ball

Here's another vote for Eternal Darkness. It's no killer app, but it's definitely a good game, with some innovative freakiness.

Anything else I'd recommend has been mentioned previously.

Jimi-Spandex

My advice:
AAA

Windwaker
Metroid Prime
Resident Evil 4
Viewtiful Joe
Wario Ware Inc
Monkey Ball 1/2
Eternal Darkness
Freedom Fighters
Mario Kart: DD
F-Zero

Nothing that hasn't been mentioned before really

I concur, wiseman.

I nearly freaked when it said it was deleting my savegames.

Yeah, quality moment I loved those kooky 'insanity' effects (after a few views, mind - the first time you see them it's fecking heart-in-mouth time, especially the aforementioned save game deletion / reset type ones :eek: )

The whole runes thing was class as well IMO.
Also, it just occured to me that Eternal Darkness could make quite an interesting movie (I hope to Christ Uwe Boll doesn't read Boards...)
