You fools need to step your game up, The Gamecube is sick as fuck, there's a grip of really good games that are only on the Gamecube. I usually prefer the GC versions of multi-console games to the PS2 version(I don't have an Xbox) People who knock Nintendo irritate me, if you're really a gamer, you'd appreciate all the systems, not just the PS2 and Xbox.
And another thing, I'm on my third or fourth PS2, shit is always breaking, I've had the exact same Gamecube since it came out, and have NEVER had a problem with it.
