Was History kinder to XBOX than the Gamecube?
It seems people have more fond memories of gaming on XBOX than Nintendo's Gamecube.

The Xbox was awesome for the online experience, even more so if you didn't have access to a PC for multiplayer stuff. I played a shitton of Halo 2/MechAssault and enjoyed playing a lot of other weird multiplayer sloppa on it too, like that shitty Unreal Championship game and Iron Phoenix. Xbox live was cool and the steady stream of demos was also rad. I don't think history is kind to it because a lot of those features were refined with the 360 and are now commonplace.

I played a lot of actual garbage that I for some reason have a fondness for. GameCube has some actual classics but the Xbox library is more compelling to me for how weird it is

Kek no.
The Xbox is remembered for being a Gaylo machine, the GameCube is still fondly remembered for all these classics which 'Cubers STILL play to this day and have aged like fine wine like Luigi's Mansion, mario kart Double Dash or TLoZ: TP
>>
>>12168973
xbox had many more great games for mature audiences. halo, doom 3, half life 2, riddick, far cry, ninja gaiden, breakdown, etc. ill stop there to prevent a mass tendie aneurysm

Xbox had the best game of the generation. The graphics were crazy good at the time and the game still holds up. The GameCube had some enjoyable games but nothing even close to Butcher Bay.

No. History views xbox as literally the closest thing there has ever been to the "Hitler of video game consoles." Gamecube on the other hand was a beloved childhood toy to most people, if they have any opinion about it at all.

Oh boy a movie tie in game...

Xbox was the system, as friends, we played the most serious. GameCube was the non serious anyone can play and have fun in a smaller group or rotating the controller. Simply put, Xbox was like playing a game of pickup basketball w ur boys and GameCube was like playing board games w ur family at the holidays.

This is a discord tranny meme. Who cares if it's exclusive or not. The best console has the best games.

theyre both better than slopstation jew

Aw, it has children's games
>>
>>12169524
>>12169524
Then by your logic gamecube is not that console just for having inferior multi-plats while also boasting a lower volume of good exclusives. so yes, xbox is the best console and has more great games.
>>
>>12169542
>This is a discord tranny meme
Thinking about trannies all the time unprompted is a symptom of zoomer brainrot.

/v/ discussions of old always prioritized exclusives because why the fuck else would you purchase that console over another?

>>12169561
I think there's a case for Xbox having some quality exclusives, but I think Gamecube probably has more.

>>12169019
tbf gamecube had just a couple more or so that actually mattered
>>
>>12169607
>/v/ discussions of old always prioritized exclusives because why the fuck else would you purchase that console over another?
Only nintoddlers ever tried to make the exclusive argument. No one cares you get Princess Peach games exclusively. A game isn't magically bad just because it's multiplat or magically good just because it's exclusive.
>>
Both are pretty lame, although the Xbox is definitely the lamest console of its generation. Nothing more than a westoid slop machine.

again xbox is superior to gamecube, why can't you just admit it?
>>
>>12168973
The original Xbox sucked and only had Halo and a handful of good PC ports. Other than that it was terrible. In hindsight the Gamecube was far superior.

Back when they were around, the only reason I liked the Xbox was for Halo and the graphics. In reality I don't even like Halo and the Gamecube had more games I wanted.
>>
>>12169665
Imagine arguing quantity over quality. True pleb-tier argument.

>>
>>12169697
Games are what makes owning one console worth it over another. Xbox can have no exclusives, but it can have all PC games and all PS2 games and still come out as the superior console. The gamecube could have no games besides exclusives, and if they're all spongebob and shrek and nba courtside then the gamecube still loses.
>>
>>12169707
The Xbox was good if you wanted first person shooters and multiplayers of them, it actually was almost like a spiritual successor of the N64 that way, if you think about it.
>>
>>12168973
If that were true then Xbox emulators would be better than Gamecube ones, which they are not. People don't even bother getting Xbox emulators working on certain platforms...
>>
>>12169714
The thing about emulating Xbox is what do you play that wasn't better and native to PC? Other than the one space themed alien FPS.
>>
>>12169709
It was also a dreamcast successor that had some cool sega games like panzer dragoon and jet set radio
and it was the best way to play multiplats and the best price to performance. it makes the gamecube and especially ps2 feel underpowered in comparison. and it had the only real online back then, and lan was amazing
>>
>>12169714
only trannies work on emulators. that's why dolphin came before pcsx2. cubetrannies unite.
>>
>>12169702
I don't know what loosh farming means, sorry, I don't speak urban post-millenial youth

>>12169701
Maybe try comparing exclusives next time instead of total games and your argument would be less retarded.

>>12169707
I and multiple people said exclusives AND definitive versions make a console worth owning.

People who think total games matters most are just poorfags who couldn't afford another console and so would have to justify their shitty purchase
>>
>>12169717
my older xbox was shitting the bed and I wanted to play mercenaries so I emulated it on the pcsx2 and was shocked how much shittier it was as a ps2 title. xbox lads ate like kings.

Xbox had online, Halo lan parties, Halo 2 online.
That alone shares a bigger collective vocal fond memory than individual quiet ones for the gamecube. That's why you see it stick out more, but both of them are pretty much fondly remembered equally.

Gaycube was for some reason branded as "kiddie shit" right at release, while Xbox was the cool console out of the two. Probably thanks to Haloshit and Cowadooty.
Gaycube only really has Resident Evil 4 as a remarkable title.

It numerically had more exclusives than the GameCube but this entire site is just people rage baiting. Despite that, for 24 years people have claimed Xbox only ever had Halo.
For the genuinely curious, Xbox had 112 exclusives while GameCube managed 80.
If one truly wanted to cut the fat, some Xbox games were simultaneously released on PC or timed exclusives for PC, but despite that were not released on competitor systems (PS2/GCN) therefore meet the definition of “exclusive”.

yeah but those exclusives were shit, post below you shows 6 variations of splinter cell games, WAOW~ such a good console. the only x box exclusive that mattered was ninja gaiden, and the version of 3s with online mode that it got if that counts. everything else was filler, that generation was the beginning of the end with "mature games for mature gamers such as myself" slop.

Define 'more people' and 'fond memories'. The Xbox was pretty much the Halo machine, but Halo was so successful that it carried it pretty well. I know lots of people who enjoyed playing Halo Co-op, but I don't know could really name many other Xbox games they loved.

I know less people who had a GC but had a more rounded experience with Metroid Prime, RE4, Smash, etc. but it is objectively less people in my friendship group sample.

Halo CE and 2 were a pop culture phenomenon. WW, Sunshine, and not even Melee had that impact. You gotta be the biggest GameCuber manchild to think that way... or a clueless zoomer son of said manchild.
Halo was for the 6th gen what Pokémon was for the 4th or Gran Turismo for the 5th.

Halo was the biggest exclusive it had, and Halo itself isn't even relevant anymore. Xbox was a flash in the pan, while the Gamecube was simply a weak link in Nintendo's enduring legacy that will always be relevant if only because it's Nintendo.

Sir, this is /vr/ and we're talking about the Xbox, the 6th gen console, not that stupid "social construct" nonsense where everything is an Xbox, even a Samsung smart refrigerator. Go back to >>>/v/

Simply put, the CHADBox was simply more memorable than the Cringetendo GayCub.

>Was History kinder to XBOX than the Gamecube?
Absolutely Gamecube. Far more lasting impact BY FAR.
Oh, how the tables have turned. The gay colorful japanese videogames everyone made fun of the Gamecube for? They're what's cool now. Indie and AA devs take inspiration of Gamecube titles like Super Mario Sunshine, Animal Crossing, Sonic Adventure, Double Dash, Wind Waker and Twilight Princess all of the fuckin time. Meanwhile all the badass, realistic mature western games that were THE staples of Xbox, like Halo, Tom Clancy, Riddick, Far Cry, and later on Gears and Saints Row, are nowadays pretty much considered relics of their time. There really isn't as much nostalgia for the dudebro marine FPS/gangsta GTA clone era of gaming and as far as i know nobody today is really making any games inspired by Original Xbox games, except for that short while when everyone and their mother were making their own "Halo-killers" that ended up flopping massively.

Even in the M-rated gritty game category, Gamecube has fewer, but far stronger titles. Killer7, Eternal Darkness, Resident Evil 4, 0 and REmake.Killer7 and RE4 are still considered some of the greatest games of the sixth console gen. Sure, they were released on PS2 as well, but now that everyone knows the downgrades of the latter, which version do you think people go out of their way to play now? The Gamecube versions. And OG Xbox owners couldn't even hope to play a downgraded version of those titles.
And then you have the Melee community, which through unfettered autistic dedication alone has been continuously playing and managing a competitive scene for a game that doesn't even fucking have native online play for nearly 24 years. The XBOX, a system that was literally designed for, and remembered for it's online play, has no game anywhere as active as Melee. If you want a good laugh, go into the Insignia page and look at the playercounts for Halo 2, and then laugh even harder at the playercounts for the other games.

Multiplatform games aren't defining of a retro console's library like exclusive games are. It's not like today where consoles have basically no major differences in hardware features so every game is just expected to be multiplat. Often if a game got released in several platforms in the 2000's it was an indicator that a game was cheap and simple enough to develop to bring it to several systems (such as with sports games), compared to a game being exclusively developed to one system, tailored to the specific strengths and weaknesses of it's hardware, controls, features, etc.

Besides, what kind of fucking retard would play DOOM 3 on the original Xbox today when you can play it on PC in Full HD with a far better framerate? Or Splinter Cell? Or Max Payne? Or KOTOR? Or Morrowind? Or pretty much many of the other PC ports that the Xbox was known for? Hell, even for games shared between Xbox and PS2 or Gamecube, why would anyone even bother with an OG Xbox or xemu just for a few slight graphical improvements when it's far more convenient to just play/emulate the PS2 or GCN versions? Even if multiplats on Xbox had mindblowing graphical advantages or gameplay differences that warranted going out of your way to play those versions over the other platforms, at the end of the day, games like GTA 3, Silent Hill 2 or Burnout 3 would still be considered "PS2 games" that's where they sold the best.

That’s the most bullshit cherry-picking I’ve ever seen, PS2 is literally the biggest shovelware machine alongside the Wii and Xbox had it’s fair share of obscure slop nobody played.

Meanwhile cubies had F-Zero GX, one the greatest racing games of all time.

Well, your ten years old son would play the shit out of it, just like you did. Is your ten years old son not a child?

Yup. I like how F-Zero GX has wider tracks compared to Wipeout so you don't crash as much.

I mean Prime was a pretty cool game, take it over Halo any day.
But the Wii came out a few years after the Prime games and had a better version of them and played all of the old Cube games too making it the most useless console in existence.

Melee's community is probably responsible for the lack of nostalgia. Its a very insufferable community and they by far represent most of the nostalgia for the GC in this day and age.

Xbox would win but GC has Eternal Darkness so its an easy win for GC

Putrid

Playing Half-Life 2 on the Xbox is worse than playing it on PC with the infamous GeForce FX 5200

They made 3 different F-Zero games after GX.
>>
>>12168973
Pfff. No. If anything, the Cube has vindicated itself through the quality of its library. The only reason I ever hear about an Xbox now is to hack and install roms lol. Oh, and this thread.

>>12178809
Sure they did.

idk I mostly see people getting gamecubes to mod nobody ever talks about the games, only time the games are discussed is resale value "brooo piglets adventure is $250 on cube" "just flipped my 6th chibi robobo"

actually the xbox version of hl2 has the best sound and the convenient way of experiencing hl2 as it originally was before updates. its fun, fps drops really isnt that much of a problem.

>convenient way of experiencing hl2 as it originally was before updates
Nope.

>fps drops really isnt that much of a problem.
Constantly below 20 fps and even lower whenever the player needs to shoot at something. Even Perfect Dark on the N64 is not that bad.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yN_GAuNexcs

I consider HL2 on the Xbox a big scam. No respect for the players.
>>
>>12178969
I was surprised to hear how good it sounds on Xbox, even over stereo.

>>12179096
boooooring

popping a disc into a machine is still the more convenient way, dummy lul


>>12179102
yeah, especially the open sequence. beat it 3x on the xbox over the years, always fun.
>>
>>12179124
Even if at the time the original installation process for HL2 on PC took 24 hours, still, there would be no reason to choose the worst possible way to experience the game (or any other game), that being this scummy Xbox version.
Have some self-respect.

Here's the deal with the gamecube. Was the console "just okay?" Sure. It was JUST OKAY.

But you had Super Mario Sunshine which was so good it carried the entire console. It was like Halo for the Xbox. It was THAT good.

I hear ten times more people waxing lyrical for the Xbox than the Gamecube. I had a Gamecube and then later a 360. I don't particularly have a dog in the fight. But Pikmin 2 is one of my favorite games of all time.
