Except for the motorcycles and golf carts, those ruled.


This summer, I think I will buy a console. If GTA:VC is not the holy grail (I already have GTA3 for PC), should I still buy a PS2? What's the XBOX got these days? The DOA: XBV (I hope that's the right initialism) ads have infuriated me against this device, but I could be persuaded. As our local "Owns every console" Sanitario said once, the GC is definately the worst, so unless he retracks that statement, I guess I'm not giving that one a whole lot of attention.

Or should I just wait? When does the next console generation drop?

It's worth mentioning that the GameCube sucks in the same way the N64 did: limited game selection. I have one, with only four games, and I love it. I'm a poor student too and I very much enjoy Nintendo's flagship games, so I don't run up against the limitation at all. It's just endless Pikmin and Monkey Ball until I finally have time to crack open the Metroid. (Incidentally, Monkey Ball and Smash Bros. are surprisingly good single-player games.) If you're busy and poor enough that your game playing will be even more limited than Nintendo's list of third-party publishers, you might give the GameCube a shot.
