At the moment I'm enjoying my Cube more than ever

Canyarion · 11-13-2003, 08:37 AM

Lately I've had that feeling like 'I wanna go home to play on my GameCube'. The reason?
The good games. Finally.
A lot of games never lived up to the expectation and a lot of A titles disapointed me (Zelda TWW, TimeSplitters 2, PSO).

Now I'm playing Eternal Darkness (ok I'm late), F-Zero GX, Tony Hawk 4, a bit of Soul Calibur...
And once in a while I try to find another Triforce shard in TWW.

I'm finally happy with my Cube, just wanted to let you know.

I've been happy with my cube since the day SMS came out.

I'm loving my PS2 right now. My Cube has been ignored for now.
Two of my friends lent me 2 games.
One lent me her copy of Castelvania : Lament of Innocence and the other lent me her copy of Zone of the Enders: 2nd Runner.

I havn't been playing NGC much at all lately...

I've been getting a number of games for my PS2 as of late... and everyone's like "Viewtiful Joe get Viewtiful Joe!"... but I have such a huge list of wanted games for PS2, I'd rather tackle that...

Jason1 · 11-13-2003, 08:11 PM

I just got finished with viewtiful joe a few weeks ago, im too lazy to try to beat it on Adult mode(twas hard enough on Kids). I'll pick up Fzero once in awhile, but its come to the point where its hard beyond hard. And I'll still play PRIME from time to time...its just so damn good...easily the best game to come out since OOT.

As of now F-Zero GX is pumping the blood.

I FINALLY got the last Triforce shard. Now I wanna kick that stupid Ganon's ass and throw the game in a corner.

Taking pictures for the picto-guy is just too annoying. The most cowardly person in town, WHO IS IT??

I've never asked for help in a Zelda game before...

And the round pale object?? Why isn't it the moon???

I'm getting MKDD today. And 1080 before the end of the week.

**************SPOILERS******************

Most cowardly guy is in the bar type place that's accessed by the steps. Whenever you break a pot in the bar, this guy quivers in fear, so start breaking pots and you'll see him, then take a shot!
As for the pale rounf object, it IS the moon, but you need the colour pictograph for it to work (and it needs to be a full moon!)

It really just depends on what kind of gaming experience you're looking for.

I mean, for a long time was just playing the biggest longest games I could get a hold of. But lately I've been hanging out with my friends a lot more and playing a lot more multiplayer games.

Mario Party 5 is easily my favorite multiplayer game I've played for a couple of years now. It could be the people I'm playing with, but regardless I'm having a blast.

Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour is also an incredible game. Lots of fun had by all.

I've also been playing tons of DDR lately. My buddy built a homemade arcade style dance pad and we've just been beating the hell out of it (which won't matter because we're going to invest in some Red Octane pads before too long).

Aside from new games, though, I've been playing through a lot of old games now as well.

I've particularly been playing through the old point & click PC adventures (most of them based on the SCUMM engine: www.scummvm.org ). These include full voiced versions of: Sam & Max: Hit the Road, Maniac Mansion 2: Day of the Tentacle, Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis, Beneath a Steel Sky, and The Dig.

So, a lot of variation for me. But my Cube's definately getting a lot of use with Mario Party and Mario Golf (and Rogue Leader now that I've got a surround sound system.

ShadowFox... that had to be one of the most confusing posts I have ever seen from you.

Neither said any game is better than OoT, Jason just said that Metroid is the best game since OoT, and DsH said it isn't. Saying somthing is the best thing since somthing doesn't mean it's better than the first item, it just means it's better than anything to come out between the time the first game was released and now.

Key line: better than anything to come out between the time the first game was released and now

DsH isn't saying MoH is the best, he's simply saying that Metriod Prime isn't the best to be released in that time period according to his own personal tastes. IMO Metriod isn't even in the top 50 released.

I enjoyed Madden 98-2004 more than Metriod... as for "objective" game quality, I think FFX, Metal Gear Solid 2, Gran Turismo 3, Zelda:WW, Halo, GTA 3, and GTA:VC (among many others) are better than Metriod.

So yes, I agree with the Dead man, it is all opinion.
