Tech: here is another good arguement for PS2: Games ARE CHEAPER.

Maybe so, but to claim that the size of the disc is inferior technology is ridiculous when the amount of memory available for a game is unlimited via multiple volumes of discs. Up to two discs is usually as big as GameCube games have gotten and it is rare for a game to get that big.

| sorry to break it to you but I can copy a Gamecube disk with a DVD burner. Making them smaller dosen't help |

Learn to read. I said the processor was faster than PS2's, not XBOX.

My claim was not so much the size but that fact that you can put regular music cds or DVD discs in the Gamecube make it worthless.
Much like back in 1995 when if you wanted to upgrade your compaq PC you could only get Compaq parts. Worthless.

I really dislike these little "my Nintendo is better arguements"
I left out Gamecube as a option at the begining of this thread because I knew you would do this.
I hate Nintendo.
I hate Gameboy.
Get out of the house once in awhile.
Playstation is the answer for me because I will not have to throw out my old Final Fantasy Games and I love FF 7.
End of discussion. >

So what? Want to listen to CDs? Get a CD Player or a sterio with a CD player. Want to watch movies? Get a DVD Player. I have PS2, XBOX, and GameCube and playing games is all I use them for. I have a sterio for my CDs and a DVD player for my movies.

I dislike when brainless idiots say that something sucks without looking at the facts. Notice I have not said that PS2 or XBOX sucks. They are both fine systems. I have only pointed out certain pros that GameCube has over the other two systems that many people who don't bother to look at the facts overlook.
I also hate the word sucks. It doesn't take much intelligence to say something sucks.

And you seem to love Macs but you don't have one. You also seem to believe Bill Gates is a criminal yet you buy and use Microsoft products.

I get it. You are a Nintendo hater. It doesn't matter what Nintendo does. You will not like them anyways.

That's better. Just say something like "GameCube is not the system for me because it does not offer a lot of the kinds of games I enjoy" instead of going into a whole anti-Nintendo or anti-GameCube thing that just pisses off people like me who enjoy our Nintendo games. Bashing Nintendo makes me just as angry as bashing Stardock products.

OK-
GameCube is not the system for me because it does not offer a lot of the kinds of games I enjoy!
And I want more from the hardware such as DVD playback.

Or in other words you would like to have a DVD Player and game system together in one box rather than two seperate boxes where one box works really good for gaming and the other box works really good for DVD playback. Having two seperate boxes means better performance for both functions while having it all in one boxes means saving space.

yes, something like that because we live in cramped quarters. I already have a DVD plaer but the PS2 would come in handy for watching movies at Grandma's house when I am babysitting and get sick of playing a game.
