Is that that one Kirby race game? If so count me out, I heard that it only uses 1 or 2 buttons and you can't accelerate or brake.

The problem here isn't Gamecube. It's you. You need to lower your expectations and permanatley place yourself in the frame of mind of a four year old. Then everything will always be happy and great.

So true. I mean, the system's great and all, but I have just lost track of the games I guess...It doesn't help that I hated my last 3 gamecube games either, but that's probably just me, I'll be better off with a ps2.

i'd go with a PS2 over any console.

if your lookin for online games....

PC is best. too many great fun online games to even list.

as far as consoles go. IMO i like PS2's online over xbox. expecially with the EA sports, SSX3 and Gran Turismo 4 !... Gamecube online is nonexistant cuz nintendo fails to see what ppl want.

Meh, happens every year. It's just summer, don't let it bug you. Try going outside and getting some fresh air, or making clay sculptures, or something..

Besides, PS2 isn't getting another price drop at the price it's at... and don't expect to get a lot of money for the cube. Get yourself a job.

If you want to play online games, go with a PS2, Xbox, or just your PC. When I first bought my Gamecube, I was never expecting to go online with it.

I play my Gamecube for the great oldschool and multiplayer games. I loved Mario Sunshine, Zelda: Wind Waker, Metroid Prime, and I still play SSBM. The last time I played SSBM was 2 hours ago... I still love that game and still play it whenever I feel like it.

There is also Phantasy Star Online. Even though you have an Xbox, it's your decision. But selling your Cube would be a stupid decision. A PS2 price drop will most probably come soon, and just buy it, don't sell your Cube for it. Besides, if you're interested, the Gamecube will be getting great exclusive games like Mario Kart: Double Dash, Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles, Tales of Symphonia, Viewtiful Joe, and along with other great titles.
