Trust me, there is no place that I know of that you can rent GC games for a reasonable price. When I say resonable I mean less then $9 a night.

you can buy just about any game from nintendo or capcom and youll be happy. and i like buying instead of renting, games are yousually too easy and short.

PIAC · « **Reply #255 on:** August 08, 2003, 04:57:23 PM »

for rent

sorry, thats a pretty bad mistake, no lots .. well not lots.. but we have games for sale, but not many for rent

nah, resident evil games scare me, so thats capcom's biggest franchise gone for me

Alas, I never played Conker, Twisted Halo. But I have to change my opinion, because the SNES Donkey Kongs are very good (the first one or two, anyway).

Here put it this why if you like a game (board type) such as Labrynth. (The movie that was "based" on it is pretty good.) you will like Monkey Ball. (Its the game were you navigate a steel ball through a maze.

I like Burnout 2: Point of Impact. Its wierd I never get these things till they have been out a while. Have fun either way lol

Hostile Creation · « **Reply #259 on:** September 06, 2003, 10:03:43 AM »

Super Monkey Ball is pretty fun. However, I have another game to add to my list of awesome games: F-Zero GX. This is a great game. It is extremely challenging, but it's as fun as poop. And when I say poop, I mean poop.

FUN.

Personaly, I found Eternal Darkness one of the best games released in the last 5 years.
While Resident Evil, has always been a cheap copy of Fredric Raynals Alone in the Dark, Eternal Darkness finaly moves the genera forward.

The game is packet with originality; Sanity effects, a great magic system, a truely unique story, wonderfully intergrated charecters.

The story, IMO, its its strongest point, not only a cool tale, but told without using year-long cutscenes.
You play most of the story, and it all wonderfully fits together.

As for the graphics and sound, their amazing.
Whoever said they where N64 quality, must have a pretty rare N64.
The charecter models, to this day, remain the best scene on the GC.

The voice acting, is also amazing. (well, most of the charecters).

oh, Monkey Ball also rules, if you got patients.

I did read the review on this site, but wanted to know if anyone else has played Cubivore. I am considering buying it, but before I do I wanted a bit of input from you. Thanks.

joeyjojo · « **Reply #263 on:** September 24, 2003, 04:36:37 AM »

its probably been said before but what the hey... YO SHORTY ITS YA BIRFDAY!

now that the unpleasantness is out of the way, i think monkey ball 1 is better than 2.
i have both of them and i feel that MB1 is a better game all round. the single player levels are more creative rather than tacky, and all the multiplayer games are fun (some of the multiplayer games in MB2 are crap).

if youve ever played the classic "marble madness" you will have some idea of what monkey ball is like. it becomes very challenging, to the point of, "AAAAAAAAHHHH!!! I HATE THIS GAME!!!!" , but then youll get a little bit better and realise its cool. excellent multiplayer of course too.

shorty, if youre from townsville, you should come and kick it in the aussie ghetto (australian thread in general chat).

THANK YOU! I've been making that Marble Madness comparison forever! I like it when people see things my way.

Molobert · « **Reply #266 on:** September 26, 2003, 07:56:15 PM »

Prince of Persia, Beyond Good and Evil, RSIII: Rebel Strike, MGS: The Twin Snakes (possible, but very unlikely), and SUPER MARIO BROS. 3 all come out from now until Christmas.

I constantly hear that it's a completely horrible game, but I have never played it myself. I would proceed cautiously if I were you.

My list for this Winter includes Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes. And just so you know, I own a copy of MGS for PC. I am way too drunk to remember what else I want, but that's my #1 game. It's going to rule SO MUCH.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #268 on:** September 27, 2003, 05:41:38 AM »

Twin Snakes = 2004 title

My list for the rest of the year...

-Fire Emblem
-Mario and Luigi
-Super Mario Advance 4
-BG&E
-I-Ninja
-Mario Kart: Double Dash

and maybe 1080 and Kirby's Air Ride if I can scrap together enough cash...

I am very hard to please. Many of the games that other people think are great, I think are rather boring. Like Wind Waker & Mario Sunshine. Probably because I've been playing since 1979, and I've pretty much seen it all!

Anyway, here are the Gamecube games I was impressed by:
- METROID PRIME (but after hour 20... after you've explored 95% of the game... it gets quite boring)
- MONKEY BALL 1 (like Marble Madness in 3D... although like MM, the novelty quickly wears off)
- ZELDA: OCARINA OF TIME (yeah it's an old N64 port... but the boss battles are some of the best I've ever seen! And it's challenging.)
- ETERNAL DARKNESS (ditto... this game gave me nighmares. That's a first! Where RE is like a cheesy B-movie, ED is like a Hitchcock suspense/horror film. Pure genius!)

.

Well that's about it. Here are the games I did NOT like:

- MARIO SUNSHINE (why would I want to waste time washing stuff? it's like washing my car (yuck). I'd rather go re-play Mario 64.)
- ZELDA: WIND WAKER (too easy... too easy... too easy. And boring. There are much, much better ocean exploration games out there. Like Pirates!)
- ANIMAL CROSSING (I already own a bedroom/house that I can collect and fill with objects... why would I want to do it in a fantasy game? no thanks.)

I've got fifty spare dollars lying around, so let's put them to good use. I don't mind waiting a month, or maybe even two, for the game to come out. I'm looking for something really hardcore. I want an Action/Adventure type game, something that hooks you to it, and something that you can't put down. Something that lasts long, and has good replay value. And especially, something really really fun. But I don't want something that...well...I just want something rated E, so it's not TOO hardcore.

I currently own: Metroid Prime, Super Mario Sunshine, OoT/Master Quest (best Zelda ever), Wind Waker, Animal Crossing, Sonic Adventure 2 Battle, Sonic Mega Collection, Phantasy Star Online Eps I and II, Sonic Adventure DX, and I've pre-ordered Sonic Heroes

And a question about Animal Crossing, if anyone cares: I've paid off my loan. What's there to do? What's the fun in the Fall Sports Fair, when you can't partake in it? You can't see the Harvest Moon, what's up with that? What about meteor showers? Huh? Huh? I heard so many things about it, it was great, until I paid off my loan...I'm just wondering, what is there left to do? I've heard about Bug Catching Contests...what's that all about?
