It’s been pointed out to me that I made it sound like I’m unemployed. I actually have two jobs. I’m looking for one full-time position which will enable me to visit a doctor occaisionally.

X-Box is much better then Game Cube

In terms of console choice, it all depends on what you want to do.

If you want some interesting and innovative games, go witht he ‘Cube. Miyomoto still has a few projects in the works, I’m sure.

However, the x-box has the advantage of the Live system. This is undoubtedly the most well-implimented console online-gaming network. But here’s the thing, you can get that on your computer too (Should you happen to have a halfway-decent machine).

(I guess this was too large, had to break it up)

Personally, I’d go with the GC, as online-play has never been that huge of a deal to me and I have been consistently wowed by the titles from Nintendo. Plus, Paper Mario 2 is coming out soon and you wouldn’t want to miss that, would you? Would you? I thought not.

My favorte forum about gaming has to be this one if you want to do a bit more research: forums.insertcredit.com. They really don’t have any major bias against any one system, on the whole, and have some rather interesting discussions about game design and theory.

Dude, you should buy a Gamecube, or I’m moving out. No XBox. Donkey Konga or Halo 2? No choice. Donkey Konga. Plus I can steal a bunch of games from the family. They’ll never notice that they are missing.

Koppin – I’m glad you’re an angry videogame dude….go back to bed.

i have a modded xbox, and it is one of the best things ever. not only can i rent a game and just copy it to the 120 gig hd (uh…in theory!) but you can also install emulators for basically any system ever, and play all the games on your tv, the way they were meant to be played. i have every nes and famicom game ever ready to be played.

check xbox-scene.com for modding info.

gamecube? it’s cheap, but there’s only like 2 good games for it.

Ahem. 2? No, my friend. Observe:

Metroid Prime
Super Smash Bros. Melee
Pikmin (And pikmin 2)
Tales of Symphonia (if you’re in to action rpg’s)
Viewtiful Joe (It’s been ported to ps2)
Mario Golf
Mario Sunshine
Paper Mario 2
Alien Hominid (later this fall)
The legend of Zelda: The four swords
Eternal Darkness

This most certainly isn’t all of them, but the most I feel like listing off at the moment. Yes, there are a preponderance of first-party titles here, but they’re all great games. And don’t start talking about how “kiddie” they are, because anybody who plays them knows that some of these are gaming bliss.

Personally, I’d say screw it to both and pick up a ps2. In terms of good games, it beats both, hands down, especially if you want to play any classics.

The modified X-Box sounds pretty cool, but I have to mention the one title that completely justifies the purchase of a Nintendo Gamecube: Super Monkey Ball 2.

Yeah dude! GameCube is like, totally sweet and stuff and like, X-box isn’t.

Definitely the xbox…a hard drive is so much better then memory cards…and the new game fable is sweet…or just wait till mid next year…xbox2, ps3 and a new nintendo system

i had a gamecube and still went and got an xbox. the espn sports games are way better than anything ever, and they seem to only be on xbox but maybe that has changed with this year’s batch. anyway, xbox rules because i can now play online. it’s funny about the online playing, they advertise it trying to hint how ‘you never know who you’re playing against..’ like celebrities, etc.

i like movable type pretty well. i haven’t used it a tonne. but i’d say use that.
