GameCube - Ł129

To all UKers:

The price of the GameCube has just been slashed, due to the reduction of the Xbox. Ł130 is a fucking bargain. Buy one!

Damn...that's cheaper than the US version

No point in importing though, the shipping would fill the gap.

The Europe price is normally much hihger than the US and Jap. So I'm happy.

Look at the price, dAmn good, that will really put up good competition, something it had to do to compete with the PS2

that is a great price, especially with square getting back together with nintendo, capcom putting resident evil on it,sega games tend to be friendly toward it and the fact that it is a god system,maybe not the power house of the other two but definitely worth the price tag and its nintendo a company known for quality

sorry to bust your bubble but the PS2 is more powerfull than GC...
Xbox beats both....

How is the PS2 more powerful? Look at the specs. Look at the graphics. Look at the fact that the PS2 is two years old.

But yes, the Xbox is more powerful than both.

hmmm well first the age of a system isnt a factor when power is involved,the GC may be powerful but the ps2 is capable of more with the emotion chip and the fluidity of everything with it,regardless of how new the cube is the ps2 is a better built machine,dont get me wrong though i love the GC,i thinks its sweet and wouldnt trade mine for the world

Who cares about power ? If u want power then play ur games on the pc. The most important thing about consoles is the games. What amazing games are out for the gamecube ? That is an amzing price for gamecube, 3 consoles all at once cant afford to get them all.

ALthough I'm happy the GC is really cheap and I can now buy it anytime I want, its a bit kiddy-orientated, with the monkey puzzle and lugig's mansion. Oh well still want one, and I can hook up my GBA to it too, so I'll be happy!

Posted by Shoes on May-12-2002 11:34:

Oops, forgot about this.

The GameCube is more powerful than the PS2. I haven't seen anything, anywhere that proves this wrong. Look at Rogue Leader compared to Jedi Starfighter. Jedi make me chuckle.

Anyway!

I have my GC now, and it's great. Luigi's Mansion, Monkey Ball, and Rogue Leader are all brilliant games. Looking forward to Smash Bros.!
