I love PoR and RD but I couldn't resist trading the last ones I had for legitimate rares. I missed getting another PoR for $23 by about half an hour, but at least I know the guy it went to and it's for his personal collection.
Movie time.
Elite summaries on the last two I watched...
Swordfish: COMPUTERS IS MAGIC. WOLVERINE EXPERT COMPUTER HACKER. TRAVOLTA CRAZY.
RPM: FAST CARS GO FAST.
Loved my Gamecube. I was fourteen and it was the first console I bought with my own money, good times. Still have it safely boxed away, but messing around with Dolphin is reminding me how much fun it was the first time around.
Indeed. It was the only system I owned that gen so obviously at the time I missed out on the library the PS2 had, but Nintendo's own games were so good at that point they more than made up for it. Games like Windwaker and Metroid Prime are amazing even now, and Mario Kart Double Dash and Smash Bros Melee are still my favourite versions of each. Mario Sunshine is underrated as hell too.
As for multiplat stuff, Timesplitters 2 and Soul Calibur 2 were solid gold. Best versions of those games by far.

I missed out on PS2 library as well. That's why I hope the PS4 streaming service is good if I eventually get one. Yeah, my parents got my bro, sis and me the GC the Christmas after it came out. First day I went out and bought SSBM, bro bought Metroid Prime, and they had got us Star Fox, some sports game I don't remember and my sister got Animal Crossing. I need to get a copy of Sunshine, awhile back my bro traded in a whole bunch of GC/Xbox games and such (years ago now, like 7 or more). Summer after I joined here, I was buying back a whole bunch of the games he traded in.
All this Gamecube talk made me nostalgic!
I've got the Gamecube as soon as I've arrived in the UK. I've had a PS2 previously and the lens broke (due to modchip shenanigans) so my bro and me bought a GC to replace it.
I remember spending nights playing REbirth and RE4. I spent a lot of time on Animal Crossing and finishing Twin Snakes. To me it's a great console and it's even better with the Gameboy Player.
I have to agree that Soul Calibur 2 is better on GC, Link makes more sense as a character than Spawn and Heihachi Mishima!
Good day all! My summer vacation started a few days ago. I still dream of deadlines... :O
