Dark Sad Shadow Posted March 31, 2003 Share Posted March 31, 2003 HERESY!!!! well, i know how you feel, i stopped playing RL for a while, last night i played it only to see the backgrounds and to clean the hoth snow battlefield of soliders and atats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pisces Posted April 1, 2003 Share Posted April 1, 2003 I haven't played that game in a year. I got Metroid Prime so RL lost out. Then I got an Xbox and Halo and my Cube's been disconnected since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jared Posted April 1, 2003 Author Share Posted April 1, 2003 heh, I now have 900 health in metroid and purple anti-gravity armor lol. I have beaten like 5 bosses already and the game keeps getting more and more interesting. Now I can freeze some of the creature in ice. heheheh. And those Chozo ghosts scared the sh!t out me the first time I saw one. It was about 5:46 in the morning and I had been playing all night lol. Anyone who has gamecube, you WILL buy metroid! *waves hand* "good weak minded children":D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just expected it to be better x.x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nute Gunray Posted April 1, 2003 Share Posted April 1, 2003 You must be playing Halo wrong if it looks plain. Bungie out did themselves fifty times over. The island that the silent cartographer on it is one of the most detailed enviroments ever put into a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynk Former Posted April 1, 2003 Share Posted April 1, 2003 You seen Metroid Prime's environments yet? now THAT is detailed @_@ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pisces Posted April 2, 2003 Share Posted April 2, 2003 Yeah, the level designers for Metroid must've died of exhaustion after making those. They're insanely detailed. I still think Halo has more to offer though. Anyway, tried RL today, and it's good it justs seems so short now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joesdomain Posted April 2, 2003 Share Posted April 2, 2003 It should be a PC game also. I would never buy a Gamecube. Bad controllers, poor graphics, not many games available, etc. are many reasons why I don't like it. That is why I play my Playstation Original and Playstation 2 and PC. Plus, Rogue Squadron 3-D, the original was on PC. They wouldn't lose money to competition. PC is not a console. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"bad controller" the gamecube controller is VERY comfortable and great for the system. Just as the PS1/2 controller is good for the PS1/2 2. "poor graphics" I picked up a PS2 mag one day ages ago and they claimed the GameCube graphics were and I quote "as bad as Nintendo's last failure the Nintendo 64" Somehow I don't think this is right (notice the excessive amount of sarcasm used)... 3. "not many games available" Firstly it's better to have a few good games then hundreds of s#!t games... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have giant gorilla hands, but the GC controller is entirely too small for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted April 2, 2003 Share Posted April 2, 2003 I like the controller; playing Metroid Prime anyway - playing Rogue Leader though...really doesn't fit well for some reason ^.^ Maybe it's just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynk Former Posted April 2, 2003 Share Posted April 2, 2003 @ Nute: I have big hands and I don't think the cube controller is too small. My friends hands are even bigger and he likes the GCN controller too x.x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JangoClone#104 Posted April 2, 2003 Share Posted April 2, 2003 the only problem i find with the GC paddle is the z button. i liked the 64 paddle, but adjusting to the z button on the GC paddle took a little time. oh, btw those who bought metroid prime and are close to the end... There are these metroids that you are going to hate. you kill them, the diffuse and become two each with a different weakness (like the colored pirates) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nute Gunray Posted April 2, 2003 Share Posted April 2, 2003 I guess you're a mutant. Everyone I know loves and adores the monstrous xbox controller and hates the GC controller by virtue of the fact that the GC controller is so tiny that it could wear the xbox controller like power armor. Also the GC controller is smaller than the span of my hand which makes it very hard to hold in two hands. It's like using a mouse with both hands.

Lynk Former Posted April 2, 2003 Share Posted April 2, 2003 damn, the ps2 controller is smaller than the cube controller too! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swphreak Posted April 2, 2003 Share Posted April 2, 2003 XBox controllers are also good floatation devices, at least the originals were, they came out with a better one and if you ask me, it looks similar to a Gamecube controller. and Gamecube graphics do not suck. and like Lynk said, I'd rather havea couple of awesome games instead of too many crappy games. The only thing I like abot the XBox is the LAN ability. Hook up 2 boxes and play with 8 people. My friend did that last night and got some friends over and we played Halo all night. I own in the Vehicles. Nothing like roadkill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue Nine Posted April 2, 2003 Share Posted April 2, 2003 Xbox's controller is a pain in the ass to hold. I only ever play Metroid, Smash Brothers Melee and Resident Evil on the GC. The Z button isn't utilized very much in any of those games, so it works for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynk Former Posted April 2, 2003 Share Posted April 2, 2003 ppl think the Z button is supposed to be used like on the N64. It's only an alternate option button and was most effectivelly used for Z-Targetting on the Zelda games... and even then it's not really a VITAL button to press over and over...

swphreak Posted April 2, 2003 Share Posted April 2, 2003 Ya, I think the R button replaced Z as the "Trigger Button" I don't think I've played a GC game where I had to rely on Z too much. I wish they'd make Halo for GC or make Halo 2 for GC but those Microsoft demons are to stubborn to share.. just like Nintendo is so oh well.

Jared Posted April 2, 2003 Author Share Posted April 2, 2003 LOL!! what is wrong with the controller? I like it better than the xbox and ps2 one. Oh and Halo is awsome, but it doesn't even compare to metroid. WHAT?? WHEN YOU KILL METROIDS THEY SPLIT IN 2??? hahaha! I'm only half done with the game. And I unlocked an image gallery cause I scanned 50% of everything. I have fought metroidss, but I guess not the ones who were exposed to a ton og phazon.

Rogue Nine Posted April 2, 2003 Share Posted April 2, 2003 Yeah, once you get into the later stages of the game, get a mop and a few extra pairs of pants. You're gonna need them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joesdomain Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 My problem with the Gamecube controller is that it is wierd design and shape and it feels akward. Playstation 2 feels cool and easy to control. Plus Gamecube titles are very few. My problem with Gamecube titles is that Lucasarts decided to release Rogue Squadron II and III on Gamecube without releasing it on PC again like the first. Rogue Squadron 3-D was cool on my pc. It isn't fair to the pc fans. My other problem with Gamecube is they got Star Wars Jedi Knight II:Jedi Outcast and Playstation 2 didn't. I would of played PC version on my computer but my video card is only 8MB. I think Playstation 2 has awesome graphics. Medal of Honor: Frontline is realistic. I love it.
