Of course it is!! It's small and light, it's controller is perfect, and it's graphics are incredible.

I have been converted to the light side. The game cube is awsome. I feel guilty for putting it down for so long.
BurnSide

And so you should!

Man I cant wait to get my hands on all the resident evil games.
BurnSide
Nov 26 2004, 10:36 PM
Get RE: Remake first. It'll blow your MIND it's so incredible. And Zero too.
Then, if you feel like it, you can buy 2, 3 and CV on it as well, but they're only ports from the PS/PS2.
ChrisC098
Nov 26 2004, 10:40 PM
Well I already have 3 and Veronica on PS but I dont have 2 so maybe.
BurnSide

The port of RE2 onto Gamecube has some interesting features.
A) From the start you have access to the HUNK mini-game, and the 2 arrange modes (basically easy and SUPER easy modes) you also have Battle Mode unlocked from the start. Pretty neat!
You can actually by Zero, Remake, 2, 3 and CV in a box set for 109.99 Canadian. 5 games, pretty decent price. That's like 80 bucks american i think.
ChrisC098
Nov 26 2004, 11:21 PM
Hmm well box sets are pretty cool. Ill think about it.
BurnSide
Nov 26 2004, 11:23 PM
You get a bunch of extras with it too.
Weskers Report DVD, for one. The famed oh-so-rare Report. oo it's the RE Fans bible my friend.
ChrisC098
Nov 26 2004, 11:26 PM
Hmm 5 games with bonus stuff for 80 bucks. Ill get it. As soon as I rase $80 that is.

What is weskers report?
BurnSide
Nov 26 2004, 11:31 PM
The holy bible.
It explains everything from 30 years before the first game and all the little plot flaws and lose ends up to the beginning of code Veronica.
All explained by Wesker and Birkin on the DVD, which also includes ton of neat RE stuff like sketches, first drafts, deleted stuff etc etc.

Nov 26 2004, 11:38 PM
I must have it. I must
BurnSide
Nov 26 2004, 11:38 PM
Still. SOrry to bust your bubble, but the chances of you finding a collectors box are, well, pretty slim. Especially in your neck of the, ah, woods.

I shall prevail and find it!
BurnSide

Ebay?
ChrisC098
Nov 26 2004, 11:48 PM
I already looked. Cant find it. Looked on the ebgames website too. Couldnt find a thing.
BurnSide
Nov 26 2004, 11:50 PM
I've only ever seen it once in electronics boutique.

Never got it myself. Although i downloaded Weskers Report from KAZAA.
ChrisC098
Nov 27 2004, 12:00 AM
OOH! Hadent even thought of that.
BurnSide
Nov 27 2004, 12:02 AM
Also, a few websites had Weskers Report up for awhile, including the full report from Wesker and several awesome images. I dunno if any have them up now. You could do a search and find some stuff.
ChrisC098
Nov 27 2004, 12:17 AM
I cant find it. Oh well. I just got my memory card and it says it has 251 blocks and my metroid game says it uses 2 blocks. Does remake take up alot of blocks?
BurnSide
Nov 27 2004, 12:30 AM
No, you got a fantastic memory card. The one you have, 251 blocks, is quite expensive, easily double the price of the normal memory card, which is 52 blocks. So is my understanding. I don't think it's an offical GC memory card either, which means it is prone to screwing up and losting all the data, such happened with me and an unoffical PS2 card once.
RE takes up 8 blocks per save, and a system data file of 2 blocks.

In another theme, RE2 opened here. Just watched, I liked it, had tons of action, but not the best movie I've seen (for cool fights, watch Hero)
BurnSide
Nov 27 2004, 12:35 AM
Of course, it's not gonna win any oscars, but it sure is fun nonetheless.
ChrisC098
Nov 27 2004, 12:37 AM
It says Nintendo all over it and it cost $20. Im pretty sure its official.
BurnSide
Nov 27 2004, 12:39 AM
20 bucks is pretty steep, but it's a genuine if it says nintendo, and you probably wont need another memory card besides that one. So i say awesome, you got a great deal.
ChrisC098
Nov 27 2004, 12:44 AM
I really like the layout of the gamecube and how there are four controll ports compared to 2. I like that.
BurnSide
Nov 27 2004, 12:47 AM
Which is really... useless.. i haven't seen a decent four-player much less played one that you don't take turns with the same controller.

Oh well. Still good.
ChrisC098
Nov 27 2004, 02:43 AM
Theres mario cart double dash which can be fun.

Though I guess its not for your age group or mine for that matter.
Shakezulah
Nov 27 2004, 03:11 AM
theres plenty of good 4-player games for it. get Red Faction 2, Metal Arms, Hunter the Reckoning, and i just got Crash Nitro Cart today. havent played it yet tho. right now, im about to play F Zero GX which looks awsome.
about the memory cards, even the Nintendo ones can corrupt too. my 251 card that came with my GC package was got corrupted when i was over half way through Star Fox Adeventures. i threw it away and bought a Niko 59 block card which ive had for a long time and works perfectly well.
ChrisC098
Nov 27 2004, 03:23 AM
My cousin has NightFire which is fun multiplayer like all the 007 games.

Nov 29 2004, 12:48 AM
mario party is probably the best 4 player game next to metroid prime 2 but its to repetitive
yay! my 300th post

Find the footage for him.
I'm thinking of Nemesis saying 'STARZ!' after blowing up the helicopter.
Shakezulah
Dec 2 2004, 03:56 AM
i would want One getting diced up by the laser grid. just think of how cool that would be to have that replayed over and over again.
BurnSide
Dec 2 2004, 04:01 AM
MAN THAT'S AWESOME!!!!
All fantastic ideas, wooo!!
But first, he's making me a kick ass fighting scene from FF8. Speaking of which, where is he with that?
Shakezulah
Dec 2 2004, 04:07 AM
probably procrastinating. lol. is he even on right now? hes not signed on in MSN messanger. but im sure he'll finish it eventually. lets come up with more good idead for a RE avatar tho. lets see....howabout Claire shooting the mutated Mr. X with the rocket launcher and him exploding. that would be pretty awsome.
BurnSide
Dec 2 2004, 01:33 PM
That would be.
Or the final countdown on the train clicking to zero, the eye of the mutated birkin in realisation opening, and then BOOM.
ChrisC098

Nemesis blowing up. Looped over and over again.
