What GameCube games did you play back in the day? Which ones are worth coming back around to? Which ones do you have the best memories with?
I only really remember playing alot of Soul Caliber 2 and getting really good with Talim, those were good times.

I used to like playing "Destroy All Monsters" on my friend's son's GameCube.
It is like Street Fighter on a 3D city map with various Japanese TOHO monsters like Godzilla, Mothra, King Gidorha, etc. I used to love the Godzilla tail whip or picking up buildings and throwing them at the other monster.

Metriod Prime. Just killer.
Metroid Prime 2. Less killer.
Worms 3d. Really one of the first games my wife would play with me. Goofy and casual but lots of fun.
Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance. Super fun gauntlet-style action RPG. Nearly wore that tiny disk out. Only sold my gamecube because its sequel came out on something else.
Red faction 2. I remember this being a really clumsy FPS, bought it beat it in a weekend IIRC. Returned.
SoulCalibur 2. Good game, never enjoyed these games without arcade joystick. Got returned.
I'm sure there were others but they didn't stand out in my memory. Honestly what stands out the most was how comfortable the gamepad was. Wish I could find the same shape in a PC controller. Would be great for kicking around in the living room. The ones I've run across have shit reviews.

Holy shit yeah, Burnout 2 is amazing.
The Resident Evil remaster for Game Cube was also pretty good.
Same goes for Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes.

Final Fantasy Crystal chronicles was a fantastic game. I've replayed it several times
Zelda Collector Edition (first game I ever played in my life was Ocarina of Time on Gamecube)
Metroid Prime 1 and 2 (I remember we were playing as kids and were afraid the shit out the first time on the dark world)
How is OoT on the GameCube? Did they improve the textures or geometry or anything like that?
I've never played the one on N64 but if I'm not wrong it was only a port of the n64 to the gamecube with a slighty higher resolution.
