Why have i seen so much historical revisionism these last few years where people seem to have gotten the idea that the gamecube was a vastly superior console to the ps2?
It wasn't flooded with shovelware to the same degree.
Switch won
>>732235690it was, you'd know since you posted re4 on the PS2 side. that game was graphically inferior than on the cube. argue all you want about games but in raw power the PS2 came in last place.
>>732235813that logic doesnt make any sense
RE4 is a Gamecube game why is it on the PS2 side?
Gamecube had some of the best games of all time that have aged beautifully like- Mario Sunshine- Melee- Prime 1/2- Twilight Princess- Windwaker- Luigi's Mansionetc.PS2 had way more games but the highs weren't as high
>>732235813Nintendo games are shovelware
>>732235690People who grew up with it are now old enough to be on the internet. Simple as.I personally enjoyed mine, but I know it came in 3rd for a number of reasons
>>732235690they were both good. lots of fun exclusivesI wish modern consoles had games like old consoles did
>>732236012>best games of all time>sunshine>twilight princess>Luigis mansion You've got to be fucking with me
>>732236012i imagine you as that anime girl you posted and i fell in love with you because i want a gf that looks like that anime girl but also plays video games. do you have a discord you wanna share?
>>732235690The console was superior in terms of specs.
>>732235825the faggy tablet award
>>732236012xenosaga and metal gear solid alone completely annihilate that list
>>732236012MGS2 is arguably the most important game from that entire generation.
>>732236231>>732236246Those are movies, not games.
>>732236137they all live inside a nintendo bubble
>>732235690Specs wise the Gamecube was vastly superior. Games wise, it was nowhere near it.
>>732235957Revisionism. OP is actually satirizing the entire argument. His psot has LAYERS.
>>732236271Seriously, you should play MGS2 if you haven't. I'm not joking, it's a prophetic game and that makes it incredibly impressive. I don't think any other game has held up as well because of that.
post >>732236301>>732236137as opposed to you retards who will say shit like old school cod or gow was peakat least the tendies have good taste even if they are exaggerating how good their games are
>>732235690Same reason why the N64 is considered to be almost as successful as the PS1 rather than the miserable failure that it actually was.
>>732235690Because it's true; GC had superior specs.
>>732236379MGS2 has some of the worst pacing in gaming history. Cutscene, hallway, codec call, five minutes of gameplay, repeat. It's only beaten by its sequels in terms of movie overload.
PS2 was the ball and gun game machine. Ask anyone around at the time what games they had on it and it's going to be some combination of fifa, madden, pro evo and gta
>>732236531it was the weeb machine too
>>732235690PS2 can't into 480p, no matter how you argue PS2 will always be last place on specs cause of it. If the DC can do 480p and the PS2 can't then its last place.
>>732235690I've also seen some historical revisionism where from time to time Sony manages to pull out of their asses 5M more of PS2 sold.
>>732235690specs wise, it wasgame wise, ps2 rapes it
>>732236430>Luigi's mansionlol
>>732235690Most of the games run at 60fps instead of single digit and fps is more important than graphix in hindsight
>>732236583>5M outta the nowhere>It happened twiceSuspicious...
The Xbox One was a better console than Nes, Snes, N64 combined because of its specs
>>732236469The cutscenes are why it's held up so well and the gameplay itself is still good. One of the must play games from that era, and I'd put it above every Gamecube game in that regard.
Gamecube was superior if you were an actual gamer and not a "ball & gun gamer".
>>732235957It's also on the PS2 but it's a pretty bad port
>>732236680>The cutscenes are why it's held up so well Then just watch the cutscenes everyone has already heard about.
>>732235690According to who? Gamecube trannies?
>>732236557It didn't really become the weeb machine until after the xbox 360 and ps3 came outThen all of its releases dried up except for niche japanese games
>>732236780That's not the full experience. Earthbound, Danganronpa, and Persona fans can fuck off.
REmake1 is unironically the only good gamecube exclusive
>>732235690i don't get why people would go up to bat for anything during that generationit was putridnever should have put fans in consoles, they lost the plot, pc won
Cube babbys are now in their late 20s and 30s now. Guess who makes up the majority of /v/? it's not 12 year old's like you think.
gamecube is like subscribing to disney plus and watching capeshit where every movie stars iron man, thor and darth vader. and then a new movie comes out and you're like holy shit there's a new iron man movie. ps2 is like having access to a private tracker where you can download and play whatever the fuck you want.
>>732236815now THIS is revisionist history. it had the nis games like disgaea and phantom brave, the .hack bamco games, weeb cash ins from series like full metal alchemist and inu yasha. you had persona, you had final fantasy, you had dragon quest, it was weeb heaven.
>>732236909>they lost the plot, pc wondo you have any idea how much shovelware the pc has? the pc is like the worst console of all time due to the amount of shovelware.
GC has the lions share of the greatest games from that gen, but the fewest average to bad games. Having lots of average games matters to some people, even if you're missing out on the best
>gamecube more powerful than PS2 spec wise>didn't matter in the slightest because of the tiny discs nintendo used so games had to be compromised anywaysnintentards are something else
>>732236993Final Fantasy is not a weeb series, it was for normiesAnd most of the other games you listed came out after 2005
>>732235690It depends on what your criteria is. PS2 had a far better library, but as a console itself, the Gamecube was generally far and way superior. The only revisionism is people treating the Gamecube versions of games as the definitive way to play, when 8/10 times that distinction went to the Xbox, with the only outliers generally cases where the devs themselves admit they just weren't very familiar with the Xbox and did a hackjob (e.g. Sonic Heroes, MGS2).
>>732235690What are these so called superior ps2 games? I never had one and the only game i can think of that i was disappointed i couldn't play was shadow of the colossus. I like jrpgs but all the best ones i see posted are always on snes and ps1
>>732236246Nah, that's still GTA3 or Resident Evil 4.
>>732236012make a thread where you ask people their favorite gamecube games and these are the games you're gonna see over and over. make a thread about peoples favorite ps2 games and you're gonna learn about great games you've never even heard about before.
>>732237065but gamecube versions usually had higher quality textures though............and higher quality output resolution though.........................it benefited from its power though............................
>>732237065Disc size doesn't matter.
>>732235882Power means jack shit if you have no games
>>732237116MGS2MGS3San Andreas
>>732237184The smaller discs were better because they loaded faster
>>732237079anon, the ps3 didn't come out until 2006 and even the 360 was very late 2005. i was a weeb in that era, i bought weeb games and i had a ps2. i bought so many fucking weeb games.
>>732237252True. F-Zero GX loads instantly and looks this good.
>>732237239GX mogs all three.
>>732235690it was? why are there so many retarded 40 year olds who haven't grown up and accepted that the ps2 lagged behind gc in performance just because it looked like shit your tweenage brother liked unlike real men such as yourself (15 year old dudebro tourist who doesn't game anymore but got back into it due to his kids)
>>732236012None of those games are as good or as soulful as KH1.
>>732236469>>732236716It's easy to hate ball and gun gamers, but do you have the courage to hate bing bing wahoo gamers?
>>732236716FFXI>PSO. That's all that mattered, online play was the novelty of that era. Once I got my PS2, I barely used my Gamecube because FFXI was that good of a game.
>>732236469it is literally only beat by 1 game, and that's MGS4. MGS3 is very well paced, and MGSV is more interested in being a boring open world than having a plot.
>>732237354Yeah maybe on a technical level but in terms of a true artistic vision no
>>732236716What does ball and gun mean?
>>732237563But there's skippable story sequences so that means the pacing is bad!Look, that guy is pretending to not know what pacing means. He made up a scenario in his head and requires that you agree with it. It's not grounded in reality, he just hates anything non-nintendo. That's his schtick. Get it yet?
>>732237239San Andreas is actual garbage. The gameplay is pure shit and most of it is just driving to a destination and back. The game barely even has any sound effects.
>>732236716It felt better
>>732235913Negativity bias. Even though PS2 has a huge catalogue of great games, the bad tends to be what people remember because the pool is diluted. GC is kinda like a greatest hits band. A good chunk of it is exceptionally mediocre, but because of its slam dunk titles, it's remembered more fondly.
>>732236175>PS5 got thoroughly raped and gaped by a faggy tabletOof.
A lot of vidya youtubers are Nintendo fans and young people that discuss games online primarily get their takes from those youtubers
>>732237116>I like jrpgs but all the best ones i see posted are always on snes and ps1basically every PS2 SMT game is stellar, with the sole exception being Raidou 1. Then there's the more niche stuff like Radiata Stories, .hack, Rogue Galaxy, Phantasy Star Universe, Disgaea 1 and 2, the Atelier games, Mana Khemia and so on.
>>732236893TTYD, Pikmin 1+2, RE4

>>732237335>looks this goodNot at that resolution, though.
>>732237663People who only play one kind of game - either FPS or sports.
>>732237893What about nintendo guys that only play bing bing? I deal with a lot more of them here.
tendies itt are really talking about paper mario and tales of symphonia as if the ps2 doesn't have a jrpg library that swallows those two games and then shits them out a hundred times overthey call themselves "real gamers" yet they all like the same four infantile games... when will they stop the self humiliation?
>>732237773>RE4>exclusive
I honestly didn't really enjoy the libraries of either, I liked the Xbox more. I really liked the ugly cartoon aesthetics of a few of the launch titles and generally liked the multiplats more on the system. The dashboard was nice too, so was having an HDD that I could save my music to. Playing my own music over Tournament Paintball and THPS3 was great. I know the controller wasn't great but I liked it at the time, moreso than the PlayStation or Gamecube controllers. Xbox Live was also nice to have, even if my internet plan wasn't the best at the time.
>>732238147That said, there are some games that I liked. F-Zero GX and Metal Arms immediately come to mind.
>>732236012>PS2 had way more games but the highs weren't as high
>>732236674Different generation, retardo
>>732238325The highs are oh so high on Cube. No really, it's the tallest console of its generation.
>>732235690>Why have i seen so much historical revisionism these last few years....where exactly?Posted by whom?Because I think you're just pushing some weird narrative to meme around.It's also weird to put the RE4, a literal NGC exclusive, on the PS2's side.Sony only got a shoddy port almost a year after the original release, practically months before PS3 dropped.Could've at least used something like MGS2 or SH2.>>732236012None of those are anywhere near "the best games of all time". Some of it, like the Twilight Princess, are literally the WORST the franchises have to offer.No, I am not joking. I have owned the GC since 2003, and PS2 since 2002.Meanwhile, PS2 got:>FFX>SH2-4>MGS2-3>Fatal Frame 1-3>Ico>SotC>DMC1-3>GTA3, VC, SA>Jak 1-3>R&C 1-3>Persona 3-4>Yakuza 1-2...and a plethora of multiplats + backwards compatibility to the PS1 library.
>>732237252>>732237335>Play Melee>load times are 2-3 seconds>Play Melee with 4 players>Loads are instantaneous
>>732235690It had way better games and party games
>>732235690It had better party games, multiplats and specs. Ps2 had jrpgs, hack n slash, rhythm games, and sotc though
mogs every gamecube platformer
>>732235690I was born in '91 and I can tell you that my impression was that the Gamecube was for kids, and mostly weird kids had them. But I was jealous for Melee alone.
brownstation 2
>>732238457Fun fact: Melee starts loading the characters as you select them on the CSS. Easy to observe if your disc is scratched and the instant you select certain characters your game gets a disc read error.
>>732238480In your dreams Snou
>>732236137Nintendo faggots are absolutely delusional, kek
>>732238445>It's also weird to put the RE4, a literal NGC exclusive, on the PS2's side.To me it's really funny because there's RE4/GC fans here that get really touchy about miniscule details in the American GC version of the game that aren't present in any other version, even the PAL and JP version.>>732238550It's weird the controls are different if you're playing classic mode or not.
I have noticed that everytime Nintendo gets its sales thing posted, one of these "why is gamecube so beloved when it flopped and got wrecked by ps2" is always posted.
>>732238526Fuck you bloody basterd ps2 best console ever bitch benchod
>>732238445>Because I think you're just pushing some weird narrative to meme around.op's probably the same retard that posts the twitter tranny crying about croc not being remember as much as banjo as 5th gen console war bait
They remember it so well because it was the last console that any IP they gave a shit about was worth a piss/not humiliation ritualized into the normiesphere.
>>732235690Nintendo fans are louder. Everyone else are more chill.
>>732238445The sly series is better than jak and ratchet
>>732236012
>>732235690Why you used RE4 for this when it originally debuted in the game cube and it was actually better than the later PS2 version from a technical point of view?
>>732238685Did you know the PS2 was the first console to have games made in India?
>>732238762yup
I always thought GTA3 and VC didn't come to Gamecube because it only had 1.5gb discs. But I saw recently that both games came in at under 1.5gb in their original versions. So why didn't they come out on Gamecube?
>>732235690they do the same shit when it comes to discuss N64 vs PSX.
Honestly Madden 2005 is a deeper and more cerebral game than bing bing wahoo waterpark. Tendies talk about "sportsball" games when they would probably be too hard for them.
>>732237735The Gamecube had like 10 games and everyone had the same few titles. So there's a shared nostalgia about the same handful of Gamecube games whereas most PS2 players played vastly different games because it had so many options.
>>732239152Every single used PS2 memory card has exactly two saves on it, GTA SA and some sports slop. The PS2 audience objectively played the same exact games.
>>732239080It wasn't worth it
>>732239080Sony had exclusive rights to GTA for a while, but Rockstar also said they didn't think it was worth it after Smuggler's Run 2 sold like shit on the Gamecube and they saw the console's sales
>>732238104can't you read? what do you think "ONLY FOR" means?
>>732239252>dumb third world zoomer doesn't realize the normalfags were playing socom
>>732236674Actually yeah. It had most of the N64 games worth playing anyway
>>732236893Eternal Darkness was awesome
>>732239363that's the capcom 5 logo, only 4!!
>>732235690NGC has a better cpu and gpu, it can display better graphics than the PS2, often at 60fps too, it would completely surpass ps2, sadly nintendo made the retarded descission of using mini-dvds wich made 3rd party games being cut in content, audio, and texture details.
>>732239884imo there's not that big a difference between average ps2 and gc games. xbox has the most noticeable differences but ps2 and gc usually trade blows. They run at the same res and gc has some drawbacks like fewer buttons which hurts games like ssx, and ps2 could do way better particle/custom effects.
>>732235690they were both goodthe most notable difference is ps2 could play DVDs and had IIRC a significantly larger library.I don't recall if gamecube had online functionality, I assume it didn't really, but PS2 did IIRC, for whatever that's worth.
>>732235813Nigger the entire third party library for Gamecube is nothing but liscensed cartoon shit.
>>732236012I agree the gamecube is better but dude mario sunshine is a legitimate 3/10
>>732235690It was though? Wait are we talking technical superiority or the games. Because the Gamecube was actually more powerful, see the PS2 port of RE4. If it's the latter it's all subjective. I can name dozens of games I like on both consoles.
why do uncs keep making threads about their old ass consoles
>>732237367This.
>>732240834Because video games have started sucking ever since the PS3/360 era.
>>732240834Because it's the last generation with an actual interesting comparison. PS4 VS Xbone? Every important game is on both. It's just a matter of what you've already bought into in the past deciding what you get next.
Why do Cubies keep saying that the PS2 was a "Shovelware machine" but whenever I look for the best Third party Gamecube games it usually looks like this?
>>732238762Sly 2 is the best game out of all of them but I think Ratchet is the better series.
>>732240897lolhttps://youtu.be/epxyyXL8e7Ulet me share my pain with you
when you emulate the ps2 you're looking at a mountain of games from a variety of different publisherswhen you emulate the gamecube you're looking at nintendo games, soulcalibur 2, and viewtiful joe
>>732240990There have been, and always will be, bad video games. What I am referring to is the industry practices of the time. The PS3/360 era introduced some of the worst (((innovations))) that we know today. Cut content from the main game to be sold as DLC, games as a service, the idea of not owning a game, monthly subscription fees, always online, all of this started in that era.
>>732240951literally looked it up and this is what I got
>>732242312Most of those were much worse on Gamecube than they were on PS2
Why are people still console warring when you can just emulate both right now? You don't have to defend the purchase you made over 20 years ago
>>732242806Seriously this.
Neopets the Darkest Faerie and Okami mog the SHIT out of the gamecube zelda games.
>>732242554not as bad as RE4 which is what matters most compared to shovelware games
>>732236012>list all the shitty bing bing games as exampleslmao GCfags only play the same 3 games and think they have a right to talk about the console.
>>732235690Personally it's a choice between aesthetics,library,and taste. The Gamecube just looked better than the PS2 as far as controller and the shape of the console goes. Even the startup was slightly better than the PS2 but way behind the PS1's intro. The PS2 had a larger library and more variety while the Gamecube was smaller but the multiplats it had were usually the best games on the PS2 so you could still enjoy alot of the popular games of that time. And if you just find Nintendo games more charming that'll factor in. The PS2 was better but I think the Gamecube was underrated and is just remembered more fondly because of Animal Crossing and the Mario Party games.
>>732240834Do you think people are still going to be talking about these old games long after the original audience they were made for dies out? Will OoT still top charts when every Millennial that grew up for it isn't around?
>>732235690No historical revision, zoomer
>>732235690The hardware is technically slightly stronger but nintendo never nurtured enough third party devs to push the technology further towards the end of the generation. There are late end ps2 games that look better than anything on gc, because you had healthier competition on the ps2 and dozens of studios trying to squeeze every last drop of performance out of it.
>famitsubabies insist that sales always equate to quality>except when it comes to the Ps2 and Ps1>those are magically exempt and they had no games whatsoever>but the same famitsu babies will insist that the gamecube had zero games, and only "OOTsnoys" would like themTry to make sense of this.
>>732235690Because it was vastly superior to the PS2. It and the OG Xbox were the only 60fps consoles in that generation.The problem is that it wasn't a fucking DVD player and Kojima was the only one who, like the PS1, could actually make something that looks good on the PS2.
>>732243092>37 Gamecube games>151 PS2 games
>>732235690Because you're viewing all conversations that end in a loss for the playstation "side" as this revisionism, when in reality 90% of GC vs. PS2 threads are PS2 fans seething that they aren't literally the only console people talk about from that gen. No matter how shitty you think the gamecube was in comparison, it doesn't deserve complete obscurity, so the fags behind the playstation side of the argument lose anyway.
>>732247008It’s the complete opposite. There’s a cadre of tendies that seethe endlessly over people not thinking the N64 or Gamecube were even comparable to the PS1 and PS2, much less better than them.
I just miss the days when console wars actually had some validity to them. When different systems actually had different hardware and architecture that meant they had actual strengths and weaknesses, could do different things, and games were made for particular platforms in ways that couldn't be fully translated to others. All this meant that when you got a particular console, it had a particular feel. They had exclusives and differences between libraries.Now everything is the same. PS5 is just a prebuilt. Xbox is a prebuilt for people who want to rent games. There's no point to anything besides a PC. It's boring.
>>732247008>schizo headcanonStop being a console warring tranny.
>>732235690I had both and love both equally :^)
>>732235690It's more so the fact that the gamecube sold a tiny fraction what the PS2 did. Most people back then did not have a gamecube, and it was also heavily stigmatized at the time. Back then, you did not tell people you owned a gamecube. If you did you got picked on for having the kiddy purple lunchbox. It's dumb but that's just how teenagers acted. So a lot of people only "discovered" gamecube's library after the fact, either through wii backwards compatibility, emulation, general word of mouth, let's plays, whatever else. I think this leads to people elevating GC in their minds, like it was some sort of secret that was hidden away that they rediscovered later. PS2 was just the standard that everyone knew. Gamecube was "different". Even though objectively PS2 was the superior system all around.
>>732236012Epic bait.
>>732237116Ico.
>>732235690In raw power? It was.
>>732236646Luigi's mansion is the closest we got to a great ghostbusters game until that one that came out on the 360 and the original Luigi's Mansion, as much as people bitch and moan about it being "A tech demo" is good and fun video game. Sunshine is the more egregious pick since 64 is the best platformer of all time, don't even come at me with that faggot crash bandicoot, Spyro 2 is great though, I will concede that
>>732249093>closest we got to a great ghostbusters gameWho gives a shit.As for the rest of you post. This is the problem with the nintendo bubble. You're desperate to bait an argument over platformers. Do you not recognize how many games are really out there? Did it cross your mind that there are people who don't have an interest in crash or spyro either?
>>732238480Tak and The Power of Juju (a licensed game from Nickelodeon) clears this easily.
>>732249795>You're desperate to bait an argument over platformersIt’s the classic N64 argument. It had the best 3D platformers of the generation so they try to subtly insinuate its a superior genre to other types of games. This of course ignores that the PS1 had respectable 3D platformers and actually had 2D platformers to speak of.
>>732239348Which was bullshit because they released every GTA that gen on the Xbox.
>>732250028I’d put them around the same. They’re both decent but not exceptional imo.
>>732242554Now that's what I call revisionism
>>732235690The vast majority of PS2 (and PS1) owners were normies who no longer participate in the gaming discourse. Where as owners of the Gamecube (and N64) were overwhelmingly loser nerds who have gone on to shape the history and narrative of video games on the internet.
For white people the PS2 was a side console
>>732250323Actually it comes down to Nintendo fans being white first worlders while Playstation fans are European at best.
>>7322360129 year old me kind of agrees with you but the ps2 had gta and well you’re wrong.
>>732236012Those hands are so small holy shit>Imagine
>>732250452Yea, I did neglect to mention another very large fraction of the playstation audience was also brown 3rd worlders.
>>732247226ps1 and n64 has a bigger power gap than ps2 and cube. n64 does have a few standouts that ps1 really has no great equivalent to though like the zeldas and 3d platformers.
>>732236531I will give the PS2 some credit, at least the ball and gun games were actually peak in that time
>>732250390all consoles were a side console that gen and it was good. had dreamcast early on for sonic and arcade games. then ps2 for jrpgs, hack n slashes, and rhythm games and ssx. then ngc for smash, mario kart, sunshine and ww. then finally xbox for halo, fusion frenzy, and dreamcast sequels. you kinda juggled everything around that gen since there was something worth playing on everything
>>732238445>Some of it, like the Twilight Princess, are literally the WORST the franchisesWhen the captcha finally gets changed to an IQ test and you arent able to post anymore, how will you spend your free time?
>>732235690lotta tendies on here
>>732251701tbf it was the worst at the time. we just didnt know how bad things would get
>>732251701>linear hallwaysmuh grey and brown environments>muh subversive marvel humor (ZANT IS JUST A LACKEY TO LE GANON, HAHA SUBVERTED! XD)Garbage through and through.
>>732251768Its literally better than every other Zelda other than maybe Windwaker but its a close competition between the two. MM and OOT are literally babbies first action adventure slop. The combat, the characters, the art design, everything is just unbearably bad. Its actually insane how millienial tendies are so blinded by nostalgia that they convinced everyone that they are good games.
>>732251816>t. disney adult
>>732251859all TP has going for it is midna porn and arbiter grounds. thats enough to be better than recent games though
The real historical revisionism is people acting like the PS2 didn't overwhelmingly have shovelware and that the vast majority of sales weren't due to the DVD player.
>>732252202the ps2 has a lot of shovelware yes, it also has a LOT of good games. the gamecube had some good games, but it doesnt have even 1/10 as many as the ps2 does.
>>732252202It did have shovelware, and the DVD function did sell quite a few units, but don't act like it lacked a library.>Dark Cloud series>Wild Arms>Ratchet and Clank>Jak and Daxter>Sly Cooper>armored Core>ace combatCome on.
>>732252353Not to mention>FFX>shadow hearts 1/2>LOTR games (theres like 4 good ones)>digital devil saga>nocturne
>>732236716As much as I loved some of these games, they do not hold up anymore. Gotcha Force, Viewitiful Joe, Tales, Custom Robo, etc. were all awesome at the time, but feel really lame to play now.
>>732252353>dead series>dead series>dead series>dead series>dead series>dead series.>dead series.
>>732252202shut the fuck up, PS2 is such a normalfag console. Garuntee most people got it because you could watch futurama and play music shit like greenday
>>732252573>Armored Core>Ace Combat>dead
>>732252607the fact that normies might have been using it as a dvd player is irellevent to the quality of the best games it had to offer my big lipped spear chucking friend.If the gamecube had gone with DVD's instead of tiny ones and it TOO could be used as a DVD player would that take away at all from the games you enjoy on it? The games you think are amazing? Would it have ANY effect on the quality of those games? Of course not. Its such a retarded non sequitor that I can't believe I even had to type this out. Popularity does not correlate with quality.
>>732247245funny you say this since I think all the consoles today are just exaggerated versions of what you're talking about.>PS is for lesbien revenge sims>Nintendo is for babby bing bing wahoos>Xbox is for broken games>PC is for loser chudsall comes full circle. Anyways, see this is where Switch/2 is actually still distinctly different. By not having the massive third party shit like ass creed it leaves some room for indies to be checked out. And it has to sell on it not being the best graphically.
>>732252840>retard doesnt understand the person he replied to was talking about hardware specs instead of exclusives
>>732252840>By not having the massive third party shit like ass creed it leaves some room for indies to be checked out.Then explain why Hollow Knight: Silksong can't even break 500k sales despite being on the switch and switch 2. That's a horribly low number for a game that sold about 7 million so far.
Cel Damage was best on the GC and the ports that add a fucking health bar completely miss the point of the fucking game
>>732252202>console with the single most 90+ rated games on metacritic>1.5 billion software sales>dvd players were as low as £70 by 2002 while the ps2 (£199)lol no, i think the revisionism is the exact opposite faggot retard
>>732252958you're over simplifying. First, gamepass gave it a huge push, second I WANT THIS GAME PHYISCALLY and its digital only so far, third this game will probably be ever green long terms sales could also add up.
>>732252573tendies are so fucking stupid
Guys...I decided to see if the old ball games deserved all those absurd glowing reviews they used to get.they might be right NBA Street is fucking awesome
>>732253316yeah before they became epstein gambling sims they were innocent fun. What a fucking shame
>>732253316old sports games were fucking god tier, anon. anyone who thinks sports games weren't fun before modernity brought their downfall are faggots who never played vidya with their friends
>>732253316>>732253360They were good on both ends of the spectrum too. You had great arcade sports games like NFL Blitz and the EA Sports Big label, and then on the opposite end you had really robust simulators out of Sega's ESPN games. Then they started really controlling the licenses and it all went to shit.
>>732252958Switch 2 is very new and was barely months old at that point. Obviously most people who want the switch 2 would focus on exclusives first. Maybe its also the fact that the marketing push wasn't as big as it should've been since most people were still playing donkey kong at that point.
>>732253547you'd have to unironically be mentally ill to buy third party games on Shitch
>>732253491>>732253360>>732253465>>732253316>>732253316Wait I just bought mlb the show 25Is it not a wacky FUN baseball game? I’ve never played sports so I never played sports games
>>732253491with licenses, should've made something unique. This is actually a secret problem the 6th generation had that I feel like is proto-anticonsumerism. And that it is, not even bothering with making fully original content. NO YOU JUST HAD TO INSERT SOME SHITTY BAND AT THE TIME
If we're talking about hardware, PS2 was easily the worst of the big three that gen hardware wise. It went Xbox ? Gamecube ? PS2 > Dreamcast in terms of specs. Now in terms of library? Probably PS2 > Dreamcast = Gamecube > Xbox
>>732253645Bro wot mate? For Switch 1, plenty of third party games worked fine and you know what? Switch offered a cheap way of accessing those third party games. Also fuck you I can't stand snoys face buttons.
>>732244325>thinking you're special because you made a 3x3 fucking kek anon you come off like such a faggot. the games you picked also couldn't be anymore "im not le normie frog,,," core either, get over yourself
>>732253645you have to mentally ill to have bought and ENJOYED third party games on PS2
>>732237554i dunno, PSO is the one that spawned genresFFXI was just another uninspired everquest derivative, may as well have been another of that era's kmmo
>>732253645there was an alien game that somehow ran at a higher resolution compared to PS4 lol
ps2 had the weakest specs but they were good enough especially when it was primarily a dvd player for 80% of the people who had one
>>732235690personally? I think the xbox 360 is even better than the PS2. Pure western KINO
>>732253648anon...
>>732253645PS3 third party games ran like ASS half the time lol
>>732252958you a bitch ass liar. Estimates put silksong selling around 2 million on Switch
>>732235690>Why have i seen so much historical revisionism these last few years where people seem to have gotten the idea that the gamecube was a vastly superior console to the ps2?Because only autists, trannies and tendies (repeating words) care about revising the world to their worldview and caring about a controller with an inferior layout and dogshit assymetryIf you look into it all these groups care about rewriting history>trannies psyop people into thinking tendie games are the only real games much like how they trick people into thinking they are a womanTendies keep talking about the same 5 games everyone already has heard because they were poorfags growing up. Even disregarding this, their autistic tastes make them aversive to any sort of variety (hence tendie worship). The normiefag console was the PS2, a gaming console masquerading as a DVD player, and is why there is much more game variety.This is why you don't hear much sentimentality from PS2 fans: they mainly care about the games rather than superficial details.>>732237136>make a thread where you ask people their favorite gamecube games and these are the games you're gonna see over and over. make a thread about peoples favorite ps2 games and you're gonna learn about great games you've never even heard about before.This. Every time PS2 games are brought up I hear some shit I never heard of. Game variety is at least 10 fold on a PS2.>inb4 "you're a snoy fan"You mean being a fan of peak civilizational creation (PS2) and pinnacle of white connoisseur gaming? Poorfags and richfags, negro or white, all enjoyed the kino produced on the system either way. Even the PS3 is in hindsight better than the Xbone 360
>>732254093>>732254093Y-yes?It was the only baseball game I saw
>>732254649Citation for that?
>>732254837lmao a pajeet
We'll just go year by year and I'll list off every game above an 8.0 (using Mobygames for this) for both systems.

>>732254845Its probably the best of the modern sports series but that is a very, very low bar.
Do you think this retard will ever get over the fact that people still enjoy the N64 and Gamecube?
>>732254837>You mean being a fan of peak civilizational creationYeah DS was fucking awesome
>>732254837sit down little snoy boy, switch is the console of the century. Because unlike snoys, we aren't living in the past and decided to seize a future

>>732236035Kys snoy
>>732255363oh yes ALL of us are hyping it up. Fucking bitch. Also Virtual boy coming back is legitimately cool. especially with unreleased games coming out for it. But also that's IN COMBINATION of NEW entries for NS2 faggot.Also lmao really? making sequels is just remakes to you? what a faggot. Mario Kart world is complete difference from other Mario Kart games. Also DKB adds in destruction mechanics so its not the fucking same like DK64
>>732236172and nintendo was a retard again and chose an inferior disc format that wouldn't let third parties take proper advantage of the specs
>>732255573or maybe it was because it was to force developers to focus on GAMEPLAY?
>>732255563>virtual boy coming back is legitimately cool
>>732255619guess what faggot I don't see snoy bringing back psvita. what now?
>>732255602what?
>>732255619shut the fuck up hank hill
>>732255695>BUT WHAT ABOUT SONY
>>732255751you niggers would hype it up so much if snoy brought back PSVITA. But unlike snoy, nintendo can actually revive shit.
>>732254998>>732255393A few observations I have:>the peak years for both systems were 2001-2005. Both hit their peaks almost immediately after releasing>both systems shared a lot of highly rated games. Many of the multiplats were better on Gamecube unless they had a wonky issue with the controller (I know in SSX Tricky for example that tricks were removed from the Gamecube version due to a missing grab button)>The PS2 had an exceptionally long tail compared to...basically any other system that has ever been made. >Capcom published both of the games that rated over a 9.0. RE4 on the Gamecube and Okami on the PS2 are the only games using Mobygames' aggregate to do that>The PS2 benefited *a lot* from Rockstar publishing their games on it and not the Gamecube. >They also benefited from quick turnaround on sequels (I have never understood Nintendo's reluctance to put more than one 3D Mario game out per system) Overall I'd say the Gamecube library is very competitive even if its ultimately outclassed just by scale alone. I think it stands up better to the PS2 than the N64 does to the PS1 imo.
>>732255818Just like how they revived Metroid Prime?
>>732255879they still revived Metroid in general by making dread and personally I prefer 2D metroid anyways. I can concede that Nintendo is not perfect at making revivals all the time but I feel like it's between them and sega who actually give a shit about moving legacy IPs forward. SNOY CAN'T EVEN TRY TO GET BLOODBORNE REMASTERED
>>732255879Better than anything sony or valve makes
>>732255968>valve out of nowherenot beating the seething tendie accusations
>>732255984lmao but he's not wrong. Valve can't even revive the concept of making games LMAO. Also I have serious concerns with valve if deadlock is ALL we're getting
>>732255963>they still revived Metroid in general by making dread and personally I prefer 2D metroid anyways.Ah yes, a game inferior to what indies offer on the regular. Sasuga Nintendo.
>>732255984No need to get defensive, PC vegan.
>>732235690>gamecube was a vastly superior console to the ps2?Even the Dreamcast was superior to the PS2 but they didn't have the user base to make the hardware upper hand count in sales, you may have noticed starting with the Wii they just started using underpowered hadware compared to either Microsoft or snoy, probably the reason that the Wii U flop wasn't enough to knock them out of the console market.
>>732236246It was on GameCube too
>>732236435It’s really shocking looking back at how the PS1/PS2 were exponentially more successful than the N64/GameCube. With how much people talk about the games on the latter 2 consoles you’d imagine them to have sold way more
>>732256038are you a fucking nigger? do those indie have a sexy space lady? Also, no indie metroidvanias are not the same since Metroid dread still focused on raw gameplay. Also the story is better since a lot of indies just try to make depression sims. Also the raw gameplay is better too. See I actually play games and I've played metroid dread so I know. Axiom verge is ok I guess but it's not the same. Also fuck you I can love indie metroidvanias too alongside metroid since most of them are on the switch anyways. I can actually enjoy two cakes. Also I like that dread at least isn't more pixelshit
>>732256051nigga you bought nintendo brand cardboard
>>732256213>do those indie have a sexy space ladyThey have a sexy bug lady. Even better. Also, didn't bother reading the rest of your drivel.
>>732255818nigger you can head to any use game store and buy a shita. you bought a 100 piece of plastic to use with your rented roms with nintendo’s shitty emulators lol
>>732253797>list examples of a good library with fucking pictures>oh my GOD is that ur 3x3 fav geams!?Nice deflection from having to play anything besides stankmelee, sunshine and zelda tendie
>>732237116Ignore the nerds in this thread listing their favorite obscure PS2 games like Ico as titles that made people buy it. The average normie genuinely just played GTA. The PS5 right now is probably only selling in anticipation for GTA 6 too. This is all that the typical casual player cares about and the PS2 had plenty of GTA games, sports games and miscellaneous titles to keep them happy in their 3rd world country
>>732256286>hornet is sexyLMAOOOOOOOOlike you're not that wrong but stillLMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>732235690It's because the Gamecube library and fanbase is concentrated enough that you can lump it all into a single discussion.Even here you can sometimes see Gamecube threads. When's the last time you saw an actual Luigi's Mansion thread? Or a thread exclusively about Super Mario Sunshine?Meanwhile the PS2 has a hell of a lot less threads as a console. But discussion about specific games vastly outnumbers the cube. MGS2 threads, SOTC threads, Silent Hill 3 threads and so on.
>>732235690Nintendo consoles have SOVL, which means they age like wine, while the sovlless competitors age like milk. This isn't difficult to understand but snoyim will keep pretending they don't since their whole identity is based around being retarded
>>732251859Twilight Princess has the slowest fucking intro to any video game ever made ever and probably 50% of people who bought it never made it past the first dungeon
>>732235690Why do Sonyfags harbor a victim complex over two console generations their systems handily won?
>>732256446>tranime
>>732255573the idea that better specs become useless when discs have less storage is pretty questionable.
>>732256565fuck you japanese rapist pajeet.
>>732256565lmao are you gay?
>>732256589This. The N64 using cartridges was a massively retarded decision even at the time but the GC’s mini discs really weren’t much of an issue. Plenty of third party games had no problems on the GameCube unless there was some issue with the controls
>>732256446see I just KNEW that something was missing in the team cherry games
>>732256632>>732256664Not all of us have low standards.
>>732236435OoT kind of hard carried the console. If that game was the only game the console ever sold it still would have been a massive success.
>>732256565>team discord tranny faggot 2
>>732252573Ace Combat is literally getting a new game this year. Did tendies not watch the story trailer during the game awards?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OeKsDHjPJiw
>>732256678The only reason GameCube didn’t sell that well was the overwhelming popularity of the PS2 around the world as the standardized game console. When people in this thread call it a brown console they are not kidding. Ask any 3rd worlder at the time what video game system they could get their hands on, of course they’re going with the console that had GTA, FIFA and a DVD player instead of the console that had RE4 and Melee
>>732256939If you weren't brown, you could afford both.
>>732235813because gc sales were shit
>>732235957tendies are still mad they lost a bunch of exclusives to playstation because of poor sales
>>732235813That's the cope way of saying "gamecube has no gaems"
>>732235690Actual answer: Almost all of the fantastic exclusive games for PS2 were ported to non-Sony hardware like PCs, so people could play them legit. The GameCube games are all firmly still in Nintendo's grips, and in a lot of cases never actually left the GameCube itself.
>>732256964I’m white and had both. And I will say that the GameCube games I had stuck with me more than the PS2 games
>>732257074I had both and enjoyed the libraries equally. Stop being a console warrior for once in your life.
>>732252569fuck you faggot viewtiful joe and custom robo are fucking kino and the reason I like mecha and tokusatsu bullshit at allyou have no fucking taste and suck at video gamesI spit on you
>>732256994For a console that was like 1/7th of the install base of the PS2, RE4 and other exclusives sold quite well on the gamecube.
>>732256238No I didn't
>>732257039Even the GC version of RE4 is one of a kind, it's the hardest version of the game. All future versions are based on the shitty PS2 port aside from the visuals.
>>732235690RE4 was a GameCube exclusive at first and you put it on the PS2 side. That game is a top 10 game ever and puts it neck and neck with the PS2 library alone
>>732252569Today I learned that some retard on /v/ thinks Viewtiful Joe doesn’t hold up.
>>732257074I think they're about even for me and not even in a ps2 has more to even it out against ngc's hilights I feel like both had equal amount of standouts.
I find it very unfortunate that people throw GTA around like it was always garbage slop.GTA3, Vice City, and San Andreas were all excellent games and deserved their accolades. It’s not their fault Rockstar went down the tube
>>732257142They are kino and same, they were formative for me as a kid. But they also very boring to play now!
>>732257369One anon autistically listed most of the highly rated games on both systems. There was definitely a period of time where the libraries were highly competitive and the Gamecube even had an advantage with multiplats, but it ran out of gas down the stretch while the PS2 kept truckin
>>732236716when I think of ps2 I think of jrpgs, hack n slash, and rythm games. kinda ironic you say gun games for ps2 when ngcs were better.
>>732257450>Viewtiful Joe>boringYou’re retarded anon
>>732235690/v/ is a nintendie board
>>732235813>shovelwareYou're a retard. You missed out on gems because you don't know what 'shovelware' is.
>>732236776>the Gamecube version of RE4 was better than PS2 version even though it had shitty balancing changes, no widescreen, a shitty nub for camera movement, worse atmosphere, less scary sound, and less contentWhy are cubesnoys like this?
>>732237136So many hidden gems that are still great to play. The ps2 was the last console that tried anything different, it had so many different games that were totally unique and amazing.
>>732257167not well enough is the problem
>>732237357>the ps2 lagged behind gc in performancezoomer brainrot. Nobody gave a fuck about that, the games were just superior.
>>732235690It is more powerful than the PS2 and has some banger games. However PS2 has way more banger games and you could hide cigs in the network module bay so PS2 always wins.
>>732252569Pikmin 1, Pikmin 2, Animal Crossing, Super Monkey Ball, Zelda WW, Zelda TP, RE4, REmake, Paper Mario TTYD all hold up great.But yeah PS2 wins due to sheer volume, it just had an insane breadth and variety
>>732257638the original version was the gamecube version and the content added to the ps2 version was bad
>>732257685Name three
>>732257796Gamecube has shitty balancing that no future version/port ever used again. PS2 was the gold standard going forward, also the atmosphere and sound of PS2 version is way scarier especially on a CRT
>>732257638PS2 version was by far the worst version of RE4 ever made outside of mobile. Get the fuck out of here, chump.
>>732257878And yet it has higher critic scores, user scores, sold more, and formed the basis of every future port.Cry more tendie
>>732254998wait... onimusha 1 isnt above an 8?>>732255393didnt realize that nintendo had already given up by 2005, but theres also a lot of games that feel like they arent worth mentioning.
>>732257850>>732257638Actual revisionist history
>>732257850No the gamecube version is the basis for all the ports. PS2 version has busted lighting and most if not all cutscenes are pre-rendered video files instead of playing in engine.The Wii version of the game is wild because it's mostly like an enhanced version of the gamecube version, but since they added all the PS2 content into it, it means the new cutscenes for Ada are once again just video files and look noticeably worse than the rest of the game.
>>732257919Water room. Bitch.
PS2 is too powerful
>>732257735>z-zoomer bwain wot no cap fr fr we be bussin not like that!Literally everybody older than me and obsessed with gaylo and MGS said and I quote "game cube is the weakest console" and yes, our subsequent arguments did clarify that they where specifically and only talking about the hardware.
>>732257930>wait... onimusha 1 isnt above an 8?pic related>didnt realize that nintendo had already given up by 2005, but theres also a lot of games that feel like they arent worth mentioning.The scores are the scores. Be happy I filtered out the non-arcade sports games because those were consistently highly rated every single year.
>>732237735>the bad tends to be what people rememberThe PS2 library is so fucking big that when people mention the bad ones they are literally google searching them to make bullshit arguments. Those games didn't sell well. Nobody remembers them.
>>732257964PS2 version has scarier and more atmospheric lighting. Gamecube has shitty balance changes never used in any other version. Not to mention you get two nice beefy analog sticks instead of controlling camera with a little wiggly nipple
>>732257698When you look at the huge install base of the PS2, RE4 did terrible numbers on there too. It only sold 2.3 million while the GC version sold 1.6 with such a tiny install base.
>>732258076You will never be a boomer
>>732258160because playstation has more games to choose from. sales are more concentrated when you have less options.
>>732258118>PS2 version has scarier and more atmospheric lighting.Nope. It has by far the worse atmosphere of any release of that game. No fog, no candle light shdows, no heat waves in lava areas. Straight up bland. Did you not know PS2 was the weakest gen 6 console or something? It's the only version that had cut content and nerfed graphics.
>>732257850>Gamecube has shitty balancingMaking the red9 do 6.5 damage was fucking retarded, and the amount of ammo you get is ridiculou. It wasn't that bad in the GC version
>>732258160Install base has literally never been an argument for sales. Do you think Capcom cares what percentage of the userbase bought it? No, they see that the port they almost didn't even bother with sold 50% more than the original version.Gamecube was a disgrace and hardcore gamers did not show up to support RE4
>>732258118You're trying too hard to be funny.Which reminds me of a friend I had in high school that tried to convince me that the PS2 version of RE4 didn't have tank controls and that you could move while you shoot. Even back then I didn't believe his dumbass lies.
This game was beautiful and somehow ran at a sold 60 fps and had no loading screens on the main planet. And it was an early GC game.
>>732258241PS2 made it scarier by reducing ammo counts, Gamecube showers you with ammo but makes enemies sponges, boring.>>732258224Nah, RE4 on PS2 was a lot darker, grimmer, grittier, the audio was really crunchy and downright scary. Even little things like the trees being bare adds to the ambiance over a bunch of shrubbery bullshit
>>732257850>actually complaining that RE4 on gamecube was too hard so baby needs Red9 binkie and 50 damage rifle bottleFucking pathetic
>>732258310kill yourself furry
>>732237136could also just be that gamecubes library is so small that its easy to remember all of them. like chibi robo would be an obscure gem on ps2 for example and it kind of is on ps2 still but its just called chulip.I guess if you needed an obscure gamecube game recommendation theres kururin squash
>>732258317>Nah, RE4 on PS2 was a lot darker, grimmer, grittier, the audio was really crunchy and downright scaryNah. It was simply RE4 without added lighting and sound effects. You're a retard, all of this can be proven by watching a YouTube video.
>>732258318That's the balance that all future games used. Gamecube RE4 was full of spongy enemies but huge amounts of ammo, how is that survival horror?Also a lot of the changes were added just for the Gamecube US version, probably to reduce rentals
>>732258375I've beaten the game on both and seen the comparisons, RE4 looks and sounds scarier on PS2, whether intentional or not.
>>732237236the gamecube releases were the pinnacle of console gaming. The only flaw the gamecube had, was being released against the PS2.>F Zero GX (a scifi racing game soo good, Miyamoto openly states its an almost perfect game they had no idea how to improve it enough to warrant a sequel)>smash bros melee (the greatest fighting game ever made)>wind waker>metroid prime>animal crossing>The best version of Resident Evil 4 until the pc release/remasters, PS2 version literally lowered the numbers of enemies in multiple areas to keep the game stable>Pikmin+ Pikmin 2>Paper MarioThat's 1000+hours of quality console gaming right there at the bare minimum, also the multiplats were phenomenal too, 007 nightfire was peak, NFS:Most Wanted was my favourite of the series by a mile, and Soul Caliber 2 was the peak of the franchise aswell.
>Zoomies really think that GC is graphically superior to PS2holy shit lmao
>>732258379Straight fucking lies. Who told you any of this?
All multiplats look and run better on PS2niggas smokin some shit
>>732258310rare were just godly for a time. this game did kinda suck though and the 64 version would have probably been better
>>732239884i loved the minidiscs, because at the time, the GC had the fastest loading times of any console, i was the only one of my friends who owned one, the rest owned xbox+ps2's. And the loading times were insanely fast for anything in comparison.Some autists on here have argued this point and claim the ps2 had the fastest loading times, but not from what i experienced personally, map loading was painfully slow for any game i watched my friends play.
>>732236012Iwata said it himself. Software matters.
>>732258479>All multiplats look and run better on PS2*worsePS2 was known for having the worst version of multiplats

>>732258476The NA Gamecube version specifically had a bunch of shitty balance changes only in that one specific platform and region; the JP and PAL Gamecube versions don't have these changes, neither do the PS2 versions, nor do any future ports.The PS2 version is actually the second hardest version behind the botched NA GCN version that had the shitty balance changes. The Wii version onward (and all future ports because they use this base) massively simplified the game by increasing ammo drops, slowing enemies down, and simplifying many sections.The NTSC GCN version just bloats the game with a ton of enemies, but gives you a shit ton of gold and resources. It just removes all tension from the game and you are just letting bullets fly like crazy with no consideration for aiming. There is a reason everyone loved the PS2 version more. The game balance and atmosphere there are just far superior. Also the game just looks way too clean and sterile in the PC HD version, it just lacks any scare factor or atmosphere. The hazy, gritty look of the PS2 version along with its intense, foreboding audio really sell the atmosphere.
I've been emulating PS2 and GC game recently. The GC has some good games, but PS2 games are just better. They don't have anything that can beat Ratchet and Clank, Sly Cooper, or MGS.
>>732258207correct retard. being a kid for the gamecube makes me a millennial.
>>732236012>no monkey ball 1/2>no f-zero gx>no REmake/RE4>but fucking WIND WAKER when it was unfinished and killed the gamecubedumb tomokoposter
>>732244370Gamecube looks like a toybox, what are you on? PS2 on the other hand is more mature and mean looking. Perfect aesthetics for the 00s edgy era and growing dudebro playerbase. Xbox went on with that look too but that's besides the point.

>>732258476>chatgpjeet summaryYou finally found something worse than a twitter screencap, congratulations
>It is by far the easiest version of the game.lmao keep dreaming cubesnoy
>>732258737You're a dumbass and have no idea what you're talking about. The PAL and JP versions don't have those changes, they were only shitty changes for US version to curb rentals, very common in that era. Who the fuck wants hordes of bullet sponge enemies while resources are handed out like candy? That isn't a fucking survival horror game.PS2 version is second hardest, and Wii version (which is based on PS2 version but much easier) is the basis for all the ports onwards.
>>732236716I played both Pikman games during covid. I don't know why it gets praised so much.
>>732258791You lost.
>>732258832I played both Pikmin games during covid and they were the standout games on the system and aged very well
>>732258818Completely false. Sorry, I played this game to death in college on every platform. You're just wrong.
>>732258872Yeah no keep crying your console lost
>RE4 is hard Nobody thinks this, even on Professional it's a joke compared to TEW on Akumu>>732258872You can look it all up buddy, I researched this extensively a while back, dumpster diving through old forum posts, speedrunning notes, and autistic youtube comparisons to see exactly what's different. Of course I've also beat the game multiple times across different versions, PS2 is still the king
I never owned a gamecube but have this belief that nintendo games were slightly more polished than sony games
>>732258992Nothing on Gamecube comes close to the technical marvels like God of War 2, GT4, SOTC, or MGS2/3
>>732235690>Ps2 beat the GameCube in a landslide victory with massive library of great games>GameCube games were SO GOOD the snoys still develop an inferiority complex over it
>>732258818>they were only shitty changes for US version to curb rentalsThe prototype builds say otherwise. The NTSC version is the original as the game was first released in America.
>>732258531>PS2 was known for having the worst version of multiplatsGC versions had way worse framerates. Look up Timesplitters Future Perfect comparisons if you dont believe me
>>732258872aww what's wrong lil chuddy mad he got proven wrong?
>>732258992Super Mario Sunshine was not polished
>>732259062That's even worse, it shows they knew it was bad, which is why they changed it for PAL/JP. The balancing of the NTSC GameCube version is basically an ugly shitstain that only exists in that one region for that one console, and clearly Capcom wanted nothing to do with ever bringing that mistake back.
>>732259073Whatever helps you cope kiddo.

>>732259242>troonhou image>poster is an ugly brown retard with shit tasteSay it ain't so
So what I gather from this thread is that PS2 games ran better at higher framerates and resolutions, but GC being the cheapest of the consoles made a cult out of poor kids who had nothing better and to this day they defend it to death?
>>732258476>chatgptHELLO SAAR REDEEM THE bloody basterd
>>732260169Yeah. PS2 had the best graphics and better optimized while everything on GC looked and ran worse.
>>732260169/v/ is full of retards.Both consoles had strengths and weaknesses. Neither could really be argued to be clearly superior to the other. The clear winner of that gen was the xbox. PS2 and GC arguing over who was second place is just pathetic and especially so when the differences between them were so slim.
>>732235813Why would you post a keyed gemerald like that if you want to defend the 'cube
>>732235690They did this shit with the N64 and PS1 as well. Your brain will rot just paying attention to it, ignore it.
