MFB: never play Crystal Chronicals. It is the worst FF game by far. Me and some friends played it a party and it lasted half an hour before we got bored. The challast (one player has to hold a challast that has a border. the other players can't go across that border or be hurt) is a horrible hinderance in gameplay.

I've got a PS2, so I've never played Crystal Chronicles. I'd suggest FFIX or FFX, if you have the means.
Thanks for the help, MFB. *Bows to the Master of Zelda Games*

I heard that FF:CC wasn't good as well. But I also heard FFX wasn;t to great...maybe my scorces aren't too reliable.
Are FFIX and FFX PS2 games, or PSX games? I'd probably have a better chance of getting a PSX...maybe some of these game rental places have renable systems. I should look into that.

Hmmm...that was quite uncalled for. "I sense much [Halo fanboy] in you..." Even if I were to have "major issues," at least I don't bash other's games. This is a "major issue" with Halo fanboys. www.gamestats.comZelda. Ocarina of Time. Top o' the best games list.Zelda. Top of the Most Wanted and most popular lists. Tell me Zelda's a baby game. Just go ahead. Tell the millions who've played OoT it smells. Tell the dozens of major video game media sites that gave OoT a 10 that they are wrong. Tell all the fans they're wasting their time. Tell those who went to E3 2004 that their excitement for this new game is for loss. If you can't respect the classics, then you don't have a true love for video games.

Well, Nintendo is not a thing of the past. They have, and probably will be producing quality games for a long time. Sure some people will argue that the Gamecube is a major dissapointment, but that's only because of some developers(not nintendo or square enix). xbox has the best shooters and graphics, but that's it. In my opinion PS2 and Gamecube generaly have better games gameplay-wise. So I'm not saying which is better because it's not a fact.

^ Exactly. There is no "better system." All systems have their ups and downs. PS2 has the largest lybrary, but the smallest tech power. GameCube has the most exclusives, but the smallest 3rd party support. X-Box has more games for mature audiences than any other system, but has few good child-friendly titles. It all depends on what you're looking for.
Genre wise, X-Box does seem to have the most/best shooters. PS2 seems to have the most/best RPGs, and possibly Racing games as well. GameCube has the best adventure games, though I can't say wheather or not it has the most. It may also have the best platforming games...but that's a matter for debate.
Company wise, each has their own signiture developers. X-Box has Bungie and Rare, PS2 has Rockstar and (mostly) SquareEnix. GameCube is a given: Nintendo. It also has those companies directly associated with Ninendo: Retro Studios, Hal, and Inteligent Systems. All of which have developed AAA titles in the past and recently.
And in spite of all that, it's up to the gamer to choose what system he/she buys. May people have different oppinions when they look for the right system. Graphics, games, even the style of the system itself can be deciding factors in buying a system. I bought my GameCube cause I'm a Nintendo loyalist. Fanboy, if you wanna call it that. All my fave games are on Nintendo systems: Zelda, Metroid, Mario RPG, etc. That doesn't mean that there aren't good games on other systems, it just means I'd buy Nintendo over the others because they are the games I like. To be honest, I don't like Halo much. It's just not my type of game. That doesn't mean it's a bad game, it just means I personally don't like it.
Oh, and for the record, those who say GameCube is the "baby system" should play Resident Evil 4 or Eternal Darkness. Though I havn't played either, both have really good reviews. In fact, RE4 is currently the 3rd best game of all time, and is boasted to have the best graphics over the three consoles. And both Metroid Prime and MP2: Echoes aren't games that can be considered childish.

I'm just sayin that overall xbox has better graphics if u compare the splinter cell games for xbox and gamecube theres a difference if nintendo got online and got better graphics for "most" of their games, not just a few i would go with it. i have all the systems so i would know, OK? gees u guys need to face it nintendo needs some help right now i liked n64 better than the gamecube

Yah, I liked N64 better than gamecube aswell, but Gamecube can't have better graphics than Xbox. Why? Look at the specs:
Gamecube:
CPU-----------------------485MHz CPU bit width-----------128bit Memory------------------24mb Graphics------------------ATI-162MHz Polygon performance--12M a second (realistic expectiation)
Xbox:
CPU-----------------------733MHz CPU bit width------------128 bit Memory-------------------64 MB Graphics------------------Nvidia GPU - 233 Mhz Polygon performance--116.5M/sec (unrealistic expectation)
You're right. Xbox usually does have better graphics. Xbox has better hardware, so Gamecube can't have better graphics just because it has better graphic designers, if that's what you're suggesting. I've seen all the systems graphics on many games btw. Also, Gamecube does have an online addapter. It's not very popular, but some games support it.
I just edited your post a bit to make it a little bit more readable. Hope you don't mind.

Which they are. Free, Wi-Fi online capabilities are comming to both the DS very soon, and to the "Revolution" after it's release.
Online games are already being announced for the DS. Animal Crossing and the Zelda: four swords game for the DS are two examples. Two very big games.
Another thing I'd like to note is that online isn't everything. It's nice, yes, but many of the best games don't require online abilities.
As for Nintendo needing help, well, it depends. NEED help, no. They have it. People often look down on Nintendo, which is disrespectful, really. If it weren't for Nintendo, I assure you, you wouldn't be playing games the way they are now. Nintendo has the ability to make good systems. They have. GameCube initself is NOT at ALL a bad system. It's controller is the best EVER. No other rivals it. And that's an important element. It's failure rests in the marketing scheme it followed, lack of 3rd party support, and popularity. And that "failure" is mearly financial. GameCube has hosted some of the best games this Gen. Metroid Prime, TWW, and Resident Evil are some very high ranking games.
I will agree, the specs of the X-Box far outdo that of it's competitors. But you know, the PS2 is the best, market-wise. Techs aren't everything either. Nearly every game that Nintendo themselves have developed have been BEAUTIFUL. TWW, Pikmin, Metroid, Melee, Mario Sunshine, etc. And then there's the awesome games by 3rd party developers: Soul Calibur II, Star Fox Adventures, Resident Evil 4, etc. Having THE BEST graphics aren't completely necessary. Having BEAUTIFUL games are what counts when it all comes down to looks. Gameplay should ALWAYS be the focus of games, with the exception of one genre: RPGs. Then it's story, followed by gameplay.

Great info! Truely a epic game to wait for. Probably the best graphics on the gamecube so far, although its too bad they didn't make the gamecube more powerfull... MFB: I noticed your sig/avatar change randomly, so I looked at the url and saw it was a php page. Would you mind telling me what page to go to for getting signed up?
