GCN vs Xbox

[TheGame]

Based off of what has been released in the past, what is going to be released this year, and off of hardware value(which is a better buy), which console do you think is simply better?

I'm not really looking to stir up a debate, I just would like to see what you think.

I couldn't really take a side on this... I'm leaning toward Xbox, but both consoles are arguably better than each-other imo.

[GameMaster]

Based off what has happened, X-Box.

Based on what is to happen, Gamecube.

I considered Gamecube's first year warm-ups.

[Jonbo298]

I agree with GameMaster. Last year was XBox's year. I think this year will be Gamecube's time. Great games are already out, with a lot more to follow.

i will have to say gamecube

GameCube. What does X-Box have on the Horizion? Halo 2?

...

So many great games will be coming out this year for the Cube. Sadly, the XBox will still beat the Cube in sales because people are stupid.

lol... it's funny hearing people who have no idea what they are talking about.

What makes them stupid?

(Note: The only reason I'm picking on you is you are pretty much the only one "bashing" Xbox w/o giving even half a reason)

Yeah, Halo 2 is Xbox's only game for 2003. mmhmm...

How are people stupid? Is it their fault that Nintendo has only released a handful of GOOD GCN games (MP, AC and SSBM are the only ones so far IMO, everythign else sucked)? Is it their fault that Xbox gets advertised a lot more? Is it their fault GCN has a crappy online outlook? Is it their fault that overall Xbox is selling better, therefore the "good word" gets spread around faster for Xbox? If I was a casual gamer, Xbox would be a much better pick for me.

And as for your "so many" remark, I can only think of a few:
Wind Waker
Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles
Harvest Moon
Tales Of Phantasia
Soul Calibur 2
1080 if they can pull it off
... and everything else is some crappy game or some other port. Don't expect AC2 or the next Mario game to ocme out this year, because if they do, they will most likely be rushed games that will turn out disappointing.

You are such an idiot. LOL.






I would say Xbox because of some of the sweet Online games they got coming out.

Yeah, like NFL 2k4, NBA 2k4, NCAA 2k4, and NHL 2k4

What a comedian.

[DeathsHand]

I havn't played any Xbox games or anything, but based on games I WANT and games I want that aren't out yet, Xbox has NGC beat in both categories... *shrugs*

But I own an NGC and can't afford an Xbox... oh well... I couldn't miss out on Zelda anyways

Yeah I know

[Perfect Stu]

XBox urinates on Gamecube...

Xbox has the most impressive 2003/early 2004 lineup of any system on the market

-Halo 2
-Perfect Dark 2
-Fable
-Starcraft: Ghost
-B.C.
-Star Wars: KOTOR
-Deus Ex 2

What does Gamecube have to compete with that?

Zelda: WW? I'll give you that one...
FF:CC? Quite possibly...
Animal Crossing 2? To some people, maybe...but not for me
Mario Golf/Tennis? ..... Fun games, they may be...but nothing killer

[BlueFire]

Isn't StarCraft Ghost also going on GC? I'm just wondering.

[fingersman]

Yes it is.

Why don't you guys wait until after E3 or later down this year to make this comparsion??

Oh yeah BTW..............GC will own Xbox this year. Once Mario Kart Online is released this year. j/k heh heh heh heh.


But on a serious note here's a list of exclusive/good games that are coming for XBox
This list is based off of my opinion. The exclusive games will have an asterix next to them

Malice *

Return to Castle Wolfenstein: Tides of War ( if it improves on the PC version it'll be good)

Dino Crisis 3

B.C.

Star Wars: KOTOR

Deus Ex 2


Madden NFL 2004 ( don't play sports games but I know sports fans are waiting for this one)

Soul Calibur II

StarCraft: Ghost ( woot woot)

Halo 2 ( everyone's favourite game)*

Dead or Alive: Code Cronus*

Fable ( hopefully it will come out this year)*

Kameo: Elements of Power ( One of Rare's games)*

Suikoden III ( I saw this on a release list )

Ninja Gaiden ( this a game I want on GC damn)*

Perfect Dark ( most likely this will be online and own all)*

And I'm sure they are a few other greart games that will be announced for this year


now for the GC

Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker *( Nintendo's first big game)

1080° Avalanche* ( might be good if they fix that control that everyone is complaining about)

Splinter Cell

F-Zero GC* ( I'm not particularly hyped about this game but some people are)

Product Number 3 (P.N.03) ( not to sure if it will remain exclusive ...it could follow the way of Splinter Cell)

Soul Calibur II

Madden NFL 2004 ( providing EA doesn't cancel all the support)

Viewtiful Joe ( meh feel free to tell me to take this off)

Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life ( this is one of the games I'm checking for so there)

StarCraft: Ghost

Dead Phoenix

Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles* ( this one should be good)

Mario Kart for GameCube* ( woot woot woot woot)

Star Fox Armada* ( woot woot)

Tales of Phantasia RPG ( another rpg Nintendo needs em)

Too Human

As you can see each system has a decent amount of great /exclusive games coming out this year but I guess people will pick one console over the next due to their preferences and in some cases.....their bais
