Becuase Luigi is damn cool, and there aren't many games starring him?

Plus, there are a lot of people out there who think that because Nintendo releases a Mario game, it has to be a great and amazing game.

I bought it before it came out in the states- and I *knew* it wasn't great.

And I don't think it was selling very well at 50, as all the used stores had it for 20.

Luigi's Mansion was a really bad game, along with any other GameCube title.

I boguht Pokemon Gold (slightly) used for $20.

On another note: Due to bankruptcy, K-Mart is closing about half their stores.... but first, they'll be having big sales on everything because everything must go. So if you have a K-Mart nearby, go stop by and check if they have anything interesting for sale. I got:

Alpha Centauri
Caesar III
Populous: The Beginning (AKA Populous 3)
SimEarth

All for a total of $23.40. ^_^

I'm a complete Nintendo fanboy, and even I won't make a claim like that. The PS2 alone has more stuff for it than the GCN has. You have the Final Fantasy series from 4 to 10 and Chrono Trigger. For as good as Metroid Prime and SSBM are, I highly doubt that they can compare to that. And I won't even begin mentioning that whole GTA, DMC, Kingdom Hearts, and DVD thing.

Xbox, however, definitely gets beaten by GCN, because it's still a shit system with shit for games and you need a crane to get it into your house lol xbox is huge

I swear, I'm going to hold a convention, "Ignoronicon," designed to let people piss and moan about how the PS2/GameCube/Xbox is the only good console out there. I will then proceed to board up doors and windows and burn the place to the ground. Repeat yearly in different areas as necessary.

I'm calling my plan "Running a Strainer Through the Gene Pool"

Meaningless generalizations are fun, aren't they?

As far as I'm concerned, gaming is in a state of severe stagnation overall. Every system is responsible.

Nintendo have the old-school thing going, but they are assholes in business practices.

I simply haven't found a lot of PS2 games that jump out and scream "BUY ME BUY ME", although Timesplitters 2 is fun.

I don't know enough about XBox to judge. This guy thinks he does, though.

I have fun with my Xbox. Isn't that enough?

It's about time other consoles started getting cheap games. It always pissed me off that PS/PS2 games dropped to $20 seemingly within two months.

I know PS2 is a better system than GCN, but Metroid Prime and LoZ:WW are better quality games than any individual game on PS2 or Xbox. And no I'm not saying every game PS2 and Xbox suck.

Shall I review?

Dance Dance Revolution (all versions)
Final Fantasy IV - X
Final Fantasy Tactics
Phantasy Star
Chrono Trigger
Chrono Cross
Grand Theft Auto 3
Grand Theft Auto: Vice City
Crash Bandicoot (all incarnations)
The Bouncer
Crazy Taxi
Kingdom Hearts
Devil May Cry
Devil May Cry 2
Lord of the Rings
Max Payne
Tom Clancy games (too lazy to list)
Simpsons Road Rage

The PS2 has the unfair advantage because of its backwards compability. I just listed a whole slew of quality games that are available on the PS2, and I didn't even mention that it's a DVD player in a pinch.

LOFL. Only Chrono Trigger, the Devil May Cry series and a couple of FF games are quality. LOTR and Kingdom Heart come close. And the PS2 has been around for how long? GTA sux aSS BTW.

Most of the the games on that list are hardly quality, assuming that by "quality" you mean a good, universally acclaimed game.

I knew I was forgetting something.

veloS: LOTR and Kingdom Heart come close.
Have you played these games? While LOTR may be a bit on the easy side, it still kicks ass. As for Kingdom Hearts, not only is it a good game, but it's Disney and Square. I highly doubt you coul go wrong with that combo.

GTA sux aSS BTW.
May the sperm you devour bring about untold STDs in your system.

KidVid2: I doubt you've even played half the games on that list.
True. I haven't played some of them. I haven't played the FF series, Crono, or DMC. Those I go by the general rants of omghowgoodisthis stuff I hear.

Coxy: Most of the the games on that list are hardly quality, assuming that by "quality" you mean a good, universally acclaimed game.
Agreed. Your assumption, however, is incorrect. Quality includes your assumption and my personal opinion.

Jesus Christ, Mick. I hate to reiterate what's just been said, but seeing as how you didn't fucking read it the first time, it needs to be done.

Crash Bandicoot? Simpsons Road Rage? The Bouncer? Have you ever even played a video game? Most of the Tom Clancy stuff (pretty much everything barring Splinter Cell when it comes to consoles) is complete dogshit and shouldn't even be forced on prisoners in death row. Where the catstuffing fuck do you get off calling this trash quality entertainment, and then having the fucking balls to knock Xbox?

Son, fork over your posting license. And while you're waiting for a new one, I hear Deus Ex has a sequel.

I'm sorry Mick, but it's true. The Bouncer? Simpsons Road Rage? Crash Bandicoot? Those are some of the shittiest games available. Devil May Cry 2 isn't that great either. DMC was good, but a whole different team worked on DMC2 and many DMC fans felt alienated from the sequel.
