[QUOTE="Mallus, post: 455000, member: 3887"] There are some great games for the Cube. Single-player: Pikmin, Starfox, Eternal Darkness, Animal Crossing {I know 4 adults hopelessly addicted to the last one}. Mulit: Godzilla, Mystic Hereos, and most importantly, Super Monkey Ball {which makes a great mixer with Scotch...}. That said, I'd have to recommend a PS2. It comes down to economics. With the biggest {and most diverse} userbase, the PS2 has and will continue to have the biggest, most diverse selection of games. Also, in terms of multiplatform games, inevitably, the most work goes into the PS2 version {and not just because of the PS2 famed difficult architecture}. Games ported to the Cube and Xbox often look a little better than their PS2 counterparts {when they should look markedly better}, but play worse, being quick and dirty ports. The most effort goes to the biggest market. Plus, with so many games being released, their price point drops fairly quickly. A lot of good PS2 games can be had for $20 and under. And Doc, if you want a PS2 RPG, try Suikoden 3. It's wacky, in the manner of most Japanese RPG's, but well-written. And comprehensible. And props to whoever said "Buy a Dreamcast". Search your couch for change and pick one up. Its has some of finest arcade style games, escpecially multiplayer {Soul Calibur, Virtua Tennis, Powerstone1&2, ect}.
