I've bought a Gamecube in January and really can not fault this. If you are considering to buy a console, I would to put in its place a cube. But ultimately, it depends on the taste of the individual player. I have also considered between Xbox and Cube back and forth. But since I'm a big fan Nintendo, I finally decided to go for the GC. After what I've seen so far from the Xbox to judge, it can graphically certainly compete with the Nintendo console, and in some cases even surpassed. Standing on 0815 console games like several racing games and sports games would be a Xbox certainly well advised. But in my opinion brings only the Gamecube console over the right feeling. There are games, such as those found on any other console, and not for the PC. And just in these games such as Super Mario Sunshine or Zelda, is for me the appeal of a console, and just these games can not offer the Xbox! Conclusion: So you should look for a console to play game which are identical or similar to it on the PC so I guess due to the slightly better technology to an Xbox. Bookmark it rather unique, shaped by new ideas games I would recommend the Gamecube. 5 star there under this offer quality games, the Xbox had been valued by me 4.
