I agree, the GC is one kick ass little system. I used to hate on the GC all the time, saying it was "just for kids" and that it lacked any great titles. But after some thought and getting a GC for christmas, most of my time has been devoted to mario kart, pso, ikaruga, and the zelda disc. To me the gamecube may not have that many good games, but the ones it does have are so good that its hard to pass up. My ps2's been getting mighty dusty in the past few weeks, and now my thoughts of ever buying an xbox have ceased to exist. Plus I have yet to play the RE games and with MGS twin snakes and PSO III comin out in the next couple of months, Ill have plenty to keep me busy.
