Why was it so powerful?

It had the best graphics out out the trio of it's generation, everyone just had PS2's instead so they never knew any better.

Nanomachines, son.

how many gamecube games are capable of this?

Yes, it is objectively true

Do you really believe Sony's lies?
They said the same thing about ps3

Yes and no. At the very least, it was less stupid to code for so the majority of games benefited.

PS2 putting a DVD player in and the release of Halo, poor lil’ ‘Cube never stood a chance

That's not how it works you dumb nigger

prove it

wow dont get so angry. gamecube was really shit hardware

The 1.5 GB hard-cap on game size was extremely limiting in the era of DVDs.
Especially when we consider the set of PS2/Xbox games that were released as DVD9s (Gran Turismo 4, Jade Empire, I think Halo 2?) Those games were essentially as large as 7th gen titles

you can stop acting like a retard anytime sorry your dvd player runs games in 240p

Xbox > GC > PS2

gran turismo 4 can run in 1080i

the ps3 was mad powerful, ps2 was the weakest of it's gen though

this. no way gamecube or ps2 could run morrowind or thief deadly shadows.

DC > GameCube > Xbox > PS2
PS2 had the best performance and overall quality. The has been established for 15 years. Contrarian zoomers need to gtfo

xbox was more powerful but no xbox game looks better than re4 or twilight princess, also ps2 games looked like shit, the better looking ones were about artstyle and good animation like shadow of the colossus, twilight has a worse art direction but looks 10 times crisper due to better models, due to more power

retard

hes right fag PS2 was always the best

It's truly the Neo Geo of our era...

GC was 2 gens ago dump ass

>weaker than the Xbox and PS2
>the Neo Geo

>2001
>our era

Or Half Life 2.

It's about to be 3, officially.

so that's why shadow of the colossus runs at 15 fps

Let's be honest here, it's a fucking miracle the Xbox port of Half-Life 2 even runs.

Xbox games looked better. Ps2 games only started to look good at the end of the console´s lifetime and GC was like the middleground between the two.

sure bro.

and the xbox was the stronger one. after all it was a fucking pc in disgue.

only one that can run shit like doom3

multiplats always looked like satan's prolapsed anus on the ps2 and gc. it's the good thing the ps2 had so many good exclusives that could avoid direct comparison

>Believing EA

Man, the original Xbox was a beast. It really could have been better than ps2 but Microsoft left the console die very early

I've been replaying San Andreas on PS2 and it dosen't even chug. The entire game will just stop to think sometimes

It honestly is, that port is a technological miracle.

Black and Chronicles of Riddick also looked great

youtu.be/1Qsb7s_knsQ?t=84

it actually was more powerful. you can see it in any multiplat game also
running sega chihiro games.

but yeah, ms let it die soon.
this is not me as an ms faggot. use this console as an emulator machine even today and does a fuck ton more than the others can even dream about.

well. whatever.
is the actual dc2 at thia point.

I loved my ps2, but damn xbox looked better.

It's literally
Xbox > Gamecube > DC > PS2

i can bet that the only ones that believe the gamecube has some power are just nintendo fanboys.

I haveball of then
xbonx > dreamcast stand > purple toy > the thinker.

GX is magical

PS2 may have been the "weakest" of the generation but its library assrapes the competition like its going out of style.

The one nice thing about the Gamecube is that it emulates super well, whereas the PS2 still emulates like dogshit. Too bad there are only a tiny amount of good games worth emulating.

>but it's library assrapes the competition
In quantity, sure. In quality? It very much depended on the genre. I would argue that GC > Xbox > PS2 were the order of overall polish/quality titles. The only genre the PS2 is undisputed king of is JRPG because no matter what your answer is, it can at least match it (albeit maybe not with the best version if your answer is ToS) with so many other quality titles it can drown out any dissent. Shadow Hearts, Final Fantasy, Grandia (even though III was ass), SMT, Dragon Quest, Tales, etc. What does it even lack? Skies of Arcadia and Baten Kaitos.

Other than that, though, it gets beaten in overall champions of nearly every other genre. Even shit like DMC has to run up against Ninja Gaiden. Nothing competes with Halo, Melee, F-zero/Mario Kart, Crimson Skies, etc. There are a handful of quirky games that it should get a nod to (Katamari), and possibly TPS with SOCOM, but that's it.

Dumbass
