Game Cube GamesCan anyone recommend some particularly good Gamecube games?
Is From Russia with Love any good?
Thanks

From russia with love is very meh. Take it or leave it kinda game.
What kind of game are you into?
I'll put some suggestions anyway:
Metroid prime 1 and 2, Smash bro's (so you can prepare for the wii tourny that we're planning, you can use a gamecube pad on it), wind waker and twilight princess, Paper mario, baten kaitos. Just a few mainstream ones there.

Eternal Darkness was a great game too. Oddly enough the game that probably scored the most play time on my machine was Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters, Melee. But that's just me.

I wasn't a big fan of eternal darkness, due to when you get the re-sanity spell it ruined the best part of the game. and remember reaper doesn't like resident evil and its a very similiar layout.

Why does the Smash Bros torney need to be on the Wii? Can't we have a warm up on Melee?
And yeah, Xeall listed the 3 games I actually have for a Cube.

No training must be done by one's self to not expose their style....it is the gaming ninja way!

Well, I already know you play as Link, so I'm clearly going to be fighting 3 level 9 oponents to warm up with.
You on the other hand, are aware that I can proficiently use roughly 5 or so characters.

Oh i can use everyone apart from that bastard nes, maybe peach and captin falcon, but apart from that i'm all good. But lets leave this from the smash bro's thread

Purchased Baldurs Gate - Dark Alliance as it has a handy looking Co-Op game on it. Super Smash Bros is still really expensive on whatever :S

It's not even an original GC game, but the thing that got the most playtime on my machine was Crazy Taxi. The Fifa games always got a decent showing as well.
But what's wrong with me - I'm totally forgetting XIII which just blew me away!

I was always a Marth man on SSBM, lacks Link's ranged attacks but he's faster and his big attack charges quickly. Roy was pretty cool as well, not a great all rounder but his one hit kill attack was awesome if you could ever land it.

Fifa? eww get it off me, where is pro evo? Crazy taxi was great, baulders gate dark allience was fantastic co-op and the sequel only did better. Look for a few obscure titles aswell cos the gamecube did a fantastic collection.
Examples being: Chibi Chibi Robo, Paper mario and if you want to import get a freeloader (readly avalible from your friendly neighbourhood indie game shop ) and pick up Naruto Ninja Taisen 4 from japan and prepare for what is in my opinion one of the greatest fighting games of all time, no joke.

XIII was great on the PC but its a FPS so doesn't work properly on a console
Baldurs gate has arrived so once I retrieve my GC from my friend I can play it!!

My bro's giving me a copy of the original Baldur's Gate for PC at the weekend. Can't wait.

We're having a race to see who can finish both games the quickest. No mean feat considering I finally bought Half Life 2 this week and still have Justice League Heroes to finish.

I watched a video of someone complete fallout in 14 minutes the other day! Epic. Think there was one of some one doing baulders gate in about 30, every glitch and short cut found.

Fallout in 14 min?! Christ

Yeah lots of running away, if i can remember the site i'll post it.

Justice Leauge Heroes? Ewwm that game was awful.
Its all about Marvel Ultimate Alliance.
|
kingmouse

Yeah but I'm on a break from that at the moment and rather enjoying JLA's old school storyline and voice acting. Plus you can't turn people into rabbits and then hit them with cars in Marvel UA.

No no you can't and that makes me happy
