Gamecube Hits US Early

Posted by Hemos on from the get-it-while-you-can dept.

semaj writes "It looks like retailers are being told they can sell them as they come in instead of waiting for the November 18 offical release date. PlanetGameCube has the story. Go!" So, anyone want to get us a review unit or two?

  1. Another overpriced system with overpriced games by Control-Z · · Score: 3, Flamebait
    Sure it's neat, but save some money and get a Dreamcast. You can buy DCs on Ebay all day for $40. It has some great games like DOA2, Soul Caliber, NBA2K1, Crazy Taxi (a classic), and Shenmue.

    The games are from $5 to $25 on Ebay.

    Given the content of your post, I assume that "older than 12" means 13, or maybe 12 1/2. Grow up.

    When was the last time you honestly paid for a game?

    Oh, I see tha Slashdot has instituted a new feature akin to Google's new innovation: paid advertisement posts. Just slip the Slashguys a few bucks, and you get an instant moderator skyrocket to the top of a post about competitor's new release. That'll show em!

  5. Re:Mac users should not support Bungie by crayz · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Yeah, the whole thing would be like Ben & Jerry's selling themselves to Monsanto. Bungie is shit in my book. If they make any more good games I will pirate them.

    There are companies in the past that have done some rotten shit to Mac users. Maxis, Adobe, etc. that got their start on Macs and then to a greater or lesser extend abandoned them. But selling yourself to fucking Microsoft just takes the cake. Bungie was probably the single most respected Mac developer before they did this, and in the minds of a hell of a lot of people they are now pond-scum.

    Fuck you, Bungie.
