03.13.12 | that's a tough call, but i've gotta go with ps2. the xbox/gamecube/ps2 generation was probably the best ever along with super nintendo/genesis. |

03.13.12 | only 3 good games for the game cube that you can't get for any other system.

03.13.12 | "all the cool nintendo games on the gamecube"
The good games are still expensive... If he can't afford a $100 Wii why would he want a system where all the good games are the same price as the used games of a brand new system?
You could find decent games for the PS2 at good prices all day long.
The handful of great games for the Gamecube still at $35 and up is not worth it. |

03.13.12 | This isn't even a contest. PS2
That said, I own all three systems from that generation. |

figure337
03.13.12 | ps2 just because there was a majority of the games on it were good or great. The GC had great games too like RE4 and super smash bros. oh and LoZ. |
Strider
03.13.12 | Both, with a slight advantage for the GC |
Spec
03.13.12 | I would say ps2 just because I played the shit out of mine. And get gran theft auto. |

03.13.12 | that's a tough one, gamecube was nintendo at their best in the modern era, but the ps2 was sick also
may give a slight edge to gamecube for RE4 |

03.13.12 | I played some game called Super Monkey Ball for the Gamecube and it ruled. |
omnipanzer
03.13.12 | N64 was pretty shitty actually, it could have been a lot better. designing more games to take advantage of the RAM pack and better controllers would have gone a long way to making it a better system. The N64 also lost them the FF series which pissed a lot of people off. Sega Saturn with a mod chip was way better and had way better games... as an older gent anyway. |
J0ckstrapsFTW
03.13.12 | PS2... that was my shit |
MO
03.13.12 | yea but when you grow up with a system its different omni, in '96 I was only 9 so that was basically the wet dream era of my gaming days. sega was sick though, loved the genesis and the dreamcast was an amazing system |
LiquidVelvet
03.13.12 | Jak, Ratchet, Sly, Kingdom Hearts, Final Fantasy, Shin Megami Tensei, Metal Gear Solid, ICO/Shadow of the Colossus, all of the best games are on the PS2. Go for that one. |
omnipanzer
03.13.12 | I was 18, so the whole crew shared a Saturn and PS. Saturns for some games because it had better 3D acceleration capabilities and the ram card which made Marvel vs Capcom instant load but the PS had better hardware for 2D. We would get modded controllers and games from Japan... good times. Dreamcast was fucking sweet and unfortunately fucking doomed. |

03.13.12 | This is what the RAM cart looked like in case you always wondered what went into that slot on top of the Saturn behind the disk door.

CreamCrazy
03.13.12 | I've owned & loved both consoles, however despite some of the great games the PS2 had it just didn't match up to the Gamecube in terms of a wide variety of fun games, simple controls & on some cases very superior graphics (not all the time I might add). Most of my years before the 360 were GC & Dreamcast based, so I may have slight bias towards the Cube but that's irrelevant at this point in my input of this discussion. |

03.13.12 | both are awesome systems but i would have to go with the ps2. it's still the greatest system of all time. if graphics is much of a deal breaker for you though, maybe the gamecube then. |
