hey goys lately i've been very impressed by the cube with the likes of Resident Evil Mario sunshine Zelda TWW. I was wanting to know wheres the best place to get them or are there any deals on the. I'm thinking about buying one. Thanks for the help. Bye.

Also Kornas grow up. The cube is good the Ps2 is crap. And if you don't like the Cube why are you here. So the Cube has kds games so what so did the N64. Mario games are good so are Zelda Mario golf. Banjo was too on the N64. Just becasue a game looks kiddy doesnt mean that they are crap so get a life.

If you want to make fun of another console go somewhere else this is for people that like the gamecube. Go play your crap Ps2. So what the cube diddnt sell as well. It still has some great games Resident evil 0,1,2,3,4. Mario Sunshine. Zelda, Metroid. F-Zero. Eternal darkness. Sonic Dx , Sonic Adventure 2, Sonic collection. Theres alot more but I would take up to much Bandwith. And you have no right to point anything out besides how much of a dick you are. So beat it.

well how would u like it if people mad efun of Avril. SAid she was ugly and can't sign just because you like her. You wouldnt like that. Why do you come to the gamecube forum if you don't even like the machine. Theres no point it just shows you have no life.

Calm down guys, it's only a games console.

One thing I would say (and point me to the thread if I`m wrong) is that I never see Kronas actually explaining any of his opinions. Why is Mario a "kiddie" game? Just because it has bright cartoony graphics and isn`t full of blood and gore. I could apply that description to JSR Future. Do you consider that to be a "kiddy" game?

There is nothing intrinsic in the gameplay of games such as Mario or Sonic that make them kiddy games. It seems to be a judgement made entirely on graphical style. Gameplay should be the paramount concern.

Avril can sign? I suppose you would have to be deaf to really appreciate her music? :D

no if its reasonable looking and actually a good game for a more mature audience then a good example would be 'the mark of kri'

no its cel shading a diffarent type of graphic shading

As this is an advanced topic, before going any further make sure you have adequate knowledge in the following areas:

1D texture mapping.
Texture co-ordinates.
Software lighting.
Vector math.

Getting back to your original question, if you want to get a Cube I would strongly recommend you getting an import model, with the USA/JPN switch fitted. Nintendo have always been very poor at supporting the European market. Plus, with Freeloader there are lots of PAL games that are compatible, so you won`t have to import all your titles.

I got mine from Lik-Sang. Some people don`t rate them, but I`ve never had any problems with them. If you want to order from the US then you could give therage.com a go, another dealer that I've found reliable. Even if you live near an import shop, you could well find this a cheaper route, even after factoring in the import tax and shipping.

if your going to use freeloader which i also recommend then look at this site remember to change the currency to sterling first they are very cheap for imported stuff

I am fully aware of what cel-shading is. It also happens to be brightly coloured and cartoony as I originally said. Your "argument" does nothing to invalidate my original point, just highlights the fact that you can`t engage in a serious discussion without throwing around petty insults.

Come on, justify your argument. All you have done is attempt to criticise my knowledge of computer graphics (and you can do that all you want as you have no clue as to the level of my knowledge) and answer my question with a question. I'll listen to your reasoning as long as you bother to explain it. I may not agree with you but I`ll listen, I'll engage you in debate. If you give a good enough argument I may even agree with parts of it. I`m not going to argue with you simply for the sake of arguing. But at least be constructive when you post.

thanks Jar i'll have a look. And I think Kronas and DR wadd should take this argument about kiddie games and graphics into ts own thread. That would be something good to read actually.
