Which Cube xmas games should I get?!

[Ryo]

I have narrowed it down to Paper Mario, Metroid Prime 2, Prince of Persia 2, Wario Ware Inc: Mega Party Games, Mario Tennis, Soul Calibur II, Tales of Symphonia and Pikmin 2 but only really want about 3 of them, 4 at a push, but can't narrow it down.

I have looked at various reviews etc and can't narrow it down any further at all. Can anyone offer any help, which they would choose, opinions or anything like that.

Cheers for any help!

ive gone for donkey konga and mario party5 for the kids/me and wife for xmas day afternoon. and paper mario and metroid prime for myself xmas evening.

plus im giving myself an extra pressie a nintendo ds and mario and mr driller (for the hard work im doing at the moment at work)

My opinion:

- Tales of Symphonia: the most fun I've had with an RPG in ages, a true must-have.
- Metroid Prime 2: Just ordered it, so I haven't played it yet, but from what I heard it's atleast as good as Prime, which means it's one of the best games ever made .
- For the 3rd I'd say a more 'action' orientated title: Wario, Mario Tennis or SC II, depending on your taste.

If you get Prime 2 and Tales you'll have 2 absorbing single player games already, so I wouldn't go with Paper Mario or Pikmin, just get those later. And it seems POP2 has lost a lot of what made POP1 so great, personally I'll pick that up in a while when it will be really cheap.

I would get a RPG/Pimkin 2, Metroid Prime 2 echoes and Soul Calibur 2

From those i would go for Metroid, Pikmin 2 and Tales of Symphonia, 3 very different games there. Soul Calibur 2 is cheap everywhere so you should pick that up as a 4th if you want one more.

If you need something for 4 player then swap Pikmin or ToS for Wario

i would go for prime 2, TOS, and POP2, just because you got a choice there, and they all have lots of gameplay.

I'm having to make the exact same choice and I think i'm gonna go for Pikmin 2, Tales of Symphonia and either Wario Ware or F-Zero on Players choice.

Is the multiplayer mode any good on TOS?

[Ryo]

Is the single player any good on Wario Ware or is it a multi-player game only really?

[Mayhem]

Depends what you like here! If you are going to be able to multiplayer a lot with people, then get Wario Ware (which has the single player GBA game in there minus cut scenes) and Mario Tennis. Single player gaming then Metroid Prime 2 and Paper Mario 2 are excellent. If you like more serious RPGs then go for Tales of Symphonia as well. Or RTS then Pikmin 2. All games you listed (bar PoP2) are worth of purchase, so it's really up to you!
