All Cards Accepted
Are you happy now, Dan? You started this madness. I now own the three major consoles and people have started showing up at my apartment looking for what they refer to as “the gaming holy land”.
When I finally got the thing home and hooked it up, I really felt like I’d lost it. Remember that scene in the Matrix when Morpheus asks Neo to choose the red pill or the blue pill? This is like Neo grabbing both the red and blue pills, gulping them down with the glass of water, smashing the glass in the fireplace then barking a loud belch in Morpheus’ face.
The Game Cube came with Metroid Prime and after starting it up I felt much better about my purchase. Nintendo has packed quite a punch in that little box, the graphics surpassing those of the PS2 and rivaling the Xbox. The controller is rather comfortable and the design on the console is tight. Check out the handle on the back for easy transport to your gaming destination of choice. This thing was made to travel. In addition to Metroid Prime, I bought Pikmin 2 and Mike hooked me up with Super Mario Sunshine. Looks like great fun all around and there will be more reports later.
Later this week: The void left after completing Half-Life 2.
