I leave for one night and this is what I come back to??
Funny you should say that because I had expected to post this today: both you and Boat obviously do NOT like the Xbox. I know it's your opinion, but no sane gamer could honestly say the Xbox(which popularized fps's, pioneered online gaming and brought it to the masses and made hard drives a requirement, along with having many of the best games of the last generation) is going to be a forgetable system unless they truely detest it. I can't stand the N64 controller but you won't hear me saying it's a forgetable/worthless system. So Boat should have titled this thread "Why I hate the Xbox" because we can all see beneath the thin veil he layed out.
That still isn't making a very strong case for the Gamecube though. If you had to choose just one system last gen and you chose the GC over the Xbox, you would have missed out on the majority of the best mainstream games. That was my point.Originally Posted by Richter Belmont
This is going to be fun. All those games were Xbox console exclusives for the last gen. I'm pretty sure I said that before. We aren't comparing consoles to pc's here. We are comparing console exclusives on the Xbox to console exclusives on the Gamecube. I'm fairly certain you can't play Kotor 1+2, Halo 2, Fable or Ninja Gaiden Black on any console but the Xbox(or 360). Yes the PS3 got Ninja Gaiden Stigma, but what did the Gamecube get? So you failed on that one too.Originally Posted by Richter Belmont
Huh? The Xbox was the only last gen system that could regularly output in 720p(for the games that supported it). And wait a minute....did you just say the Turbo Grafx had better visuals than the Xbox I'll let everyone else handle that one for me.Originally Posted by Richter Belmount
Perhaps, but for every 1 cult hit on the Gamecube you could find 10 on the Xbox.Originally Posted by Richter Belmount
He knows I love him. And he is a big Nintendo fan. Theres nothing wrong with that. I was just pointing out the obvious.Originally Posted by Richter Belmount
I feel you. I was just giving my point of view from a person who has all three last gen systems and enjoys the Xbox the most. But I also like my PS2 and GC.
Subtract 6 of those fps's and add these:Originally Posted by Rob2600
Forza
Outrun 2
Hitman Contracts
Fatal Frame 2
Panzer Dragoon Orta
Crimson Skies
Problem solved.
Let's keep it real. Goldeneye 007 was a phenomenal game.....in it's time. Today it's nearly unplayable compared to all the great fps's we get yearly. It hasn't aged well and can't hold anything on Riddick....except multiplayer But the new one is getting that.Originally Posted by Rob2600
Because he needs the money obviously. I try to get as much for my games as possible too.Originally Posted by Rob2600
Anyway, Boat and Richter just want the Xbox to go away. I'm not sure why but it's their opinion to have. Maybe they are still upset that the new kid beat the Gamecube. It's fine(and normal) to not like a particular system but it helps to have a good argument for that stance, especially on these forums.
