I just went on a splurge today and got:

NBA Courtside 2002 (finally, an NTSC version I can play)
Kirby Air Ride (which is non-players choice.~)
Wario World (for the cheapest I've ever seen)
Custom Robo (see: Wario World)
Sonic Gems Collection
Resident Evil 2 (for really, really cheap. Now I just need 3, and Code Veronica)

I'm happy.

Dyne, you REALLY need to pick up Prince of Persia: Sands of Time. Dont even bother with the sequal though, they butchered it. But POP is easily one of my top 5 favorite Cube games. It came out of nowhere and its a stunning game. Everyone needs to give it a look.

As for Stonecutter's comments, I disagree on most accounts.
RE: How can you say the AI sucked? They came at you agressivley, through windows, up ladders, whatever. Then you go and negate your own comments by saying its "Hard". If the AI really sucked, that wouldnt that make it easy? And I wouldnt say it was an easy game, but I definatley wouldnt put it in the realm of "Hard" either. At least not on the easiest setting. I had little trouble completing it. As for the boss battles, what boss battles in any game arent somewhat repetitive like that? Theyre like that in Zelda, Mario, pretty much any game I can think of.

And as for Metroid Prime: You werent really playing for the story, no, but do you play a Mario platformer for the story? I dont feel a Metroid game really needs much of a story. Your playing for the awsome sense of exploration and boss battles. And I suppouse you think Halo is the best thing since sliced bread.

Oh, and what about Makars Awakening? Its a little short I suppouse, but its brilliant.

I skipped a whole page of this thread, but Metroid Prime's story was great imo. It progressed very well, and the way they made it so that you scanned and put the events together piece by piece was implemented very well. And it wouldn't have been as good for me without the story.

If only I could find it! The only POP game I see is that stupid Warrior Within crap.
