i could suggest Eternal Darkness of Resident Evil of some description, and you may dislike the survival horror genre, i know i do curse you Mavis Beacon... it's all your fault..

anyway, get Skies of Arcadia if you can or Billy Hatcher, smaller* games need love too

*when i say smaller i mean smaller in stature compared to Mario or Zelda etc.

What about zelda:the wind waker? That's a great game!

I just rented Sphinx today.  I am about 3 hours into it, and truthfully, that's ALL I am going to play most likely.

If you are one of the 2 or 3 people who actually liked Star Fox Adventures, BUY THIS GAME.  You will love it.

If you are one of the vast majority who hate it, then you will probably hate this game too.  If the idea of hunting item after item for what seems to be no real purpose strikes the fear of God into your heart, and is among one of your most hated concepts for a game, then you would probably agree with me in thinking that THE GAME JUST SUCKS.

I have not yet played Prince of Persia, but it HAS to be better than Sphinx.

I found Star Fox Adventures to be a fairly enjoyable experience, and a good time killer while waiting for Metroid Prime to be released!

I LOVE Starfox Adventures, and dont really understand why anyone wouldn't. I've completely finished the game three times and love it to death. Oh well.

Star Fox Adventures is the better game I think.  It has better graphics, better music, and it took me about 4 hours to bore me silly, where Sphinx took me 3.

In Star Fox Adventures, what really got to me was the incredibly annoying Tricky, the incredibly slow plot, the incredibly SENSELESS plot, the endless collecting of items just to move on, and the boring repetitive gameplay.

In Sphinx, what really got to me was the sense of deja vu that I was just repeating Star Fox Adventures.  After collecting 10 amulets and being rewarded with a key, I was a little unsettled.  After hunting all over the damn place for 3 jewels 20 minutes later and being rewarded with yet another bloody key, I simply had enough.  I didn't play much longer after that.

I agree with Mario. I believe Star Fox Adventures to actually compare to some of the Zelda games. I found it-BETTER-than some Zelda games, like Majora's Mask, which was good but didn't enjoy it as much as OOT.

Just my opinion.

heh.  No problem.  I actually liked some of the artwork in the game, and I most likely would have rented it at some point anyways.

if half life 2 was on the gamecube (which it should be, but because microsoft made a deal with valve, they are bringing it too the gamecube 2) it would have been the best action first person puzzle game

You could buy a GBA player, and tap into the GBA's massive library of puzzle games. Other than that, the only puzzle games I can think of are Tetra's Trackers and "Nintendo Puzzle Collection", both of which do not have English release dates yet (as far as I know).

Super Mario Sunshine is pretty good as far as platformers go. Yes, Zoocube is one I forgot about, it's definatley available in Aussie.
