i was thinking about getting a gamecube and was wondering if it would be a good idea to get one with a modchip?

also, how hard is it to download and burn games, do i need specific software, cds or anything else that may make this harder then just paying for games

Gamecubes dont have modchips. You can only emulated them on your pc. Or FTP them to your GC but that takes alot of work.

If you want to get a modded system, get an xbox or ps2.

i already have a ps2, i tried modding it but it didnt work
AND FUCK XBOX

lately i feel gamecube reigns supreme in overall gaming and that is what im looking into, i just though it would be nice to beable to burn games but thats ok

but maybe somebody could direct me to a new and easily add chip for my ps2?

You can get Swap Magic for the ps2. Only $20 from www.consolesource.com

It doesnt require you to open your system either.

Great find. I just saw a few screenies on the www.xbox-scene.com homepage.

"The Viper GC has just 4 wires to solder and two connectors which could assume control of the lid sensor switch, should the appropriate commands be included in a third party BIOS release."

Sounds like its extremely easy to install. I cant wait. Maybe my GC will get some use.

But for swap magic, you need to trick your PS2 into thinking that the CD tray is closed, correct?

get a xbox
I believe that is "Get AN Xbox" because of the "X" makes a vowel sound when you say it. IE ((EX BOX))

As i have already stated... FUCK XBOX...

i really see no point in going in to detail, but i do beleive xbox is the worst of the 3 major consoles, but it is mearley an opinion, not a fact, so please dont start a console war, im only repeating myself when i say fuck xbox, but it is only so people dont spam and tell me to get one anyway, i already have a ps2 and would like a gamecube end of story.

and ty everybody who had details on the gamecube and ps2 mods

whats wrong with kids today? you say its about the gameplay yet you aren't willing to pay. i understand not paying for lame sequals and cash-ins but most of them are multi-format anyway. GC games start at £10 pre-owned where i live, and £15-20 for old and gamer's choice :unsure:
