I think I never bought one because there were so many games I was playing on PS2.
Gran Turismo 3
Devil May Cry
Resident Evil Code Veronica
Metal Gear Solid 2
Twisted Metal Black
Grand Theft Auto 3
All these games were out before the Gamecube was even released in America. PS2 was also my first DVD player, which was kinda cool that I could watch DVD's instead of my old VHS tapes.
