The only console with first party titles that don't suck, for example: Metroid Prime 1 & 2, Mario Sunshine, and Zelda.
Also has many great games that were realesed for multiple platforms, such as
Viewtiful Joe and Resident Evil.
Also, it has a small form factor making it great to bring on a trip! Plus it doesn't over heat!
NOTE: A first party title is a title developed and published by the company that makes the hardware (in this case Nintendo, which makes the Gamecube). Halo is not a first party title as it was created, designed, and programed by Bungie. Microsoft (the creators of X-Box) only bought the rights to Halo ! & 2 and was not actually involved in the creative process. The only good games for PS2 are either fighters or made by Capcom, a company which makes lots of fighters.
NOTE 2: The network adapter is not for going online. If you read carefully enough, you would see it said LAN, or local area network, adapter. This is the smae as playing Halo on
system link. Not actually on the internet, just on a network. This feature is used in games such as
Mario Kart: Double Dash and Phantasy Star Online Episodes 1 & 2.
