G cube ( 5.1 sound??)

I have a ps2 and you chaps say there are no 5.1 games.
I am buying a G cube for the kids and does this machine have a digital output and does it give 5.1 sound??
I have a cinema amp so connecting is no problem.

Xbox is the only console to give 5.1 surround sound.

GC has stereo analogue out, and thats it.

Some games support Pro Logic 2 though, so if you have a cinema amp that supports it you can get five channel surround which is very good, but still not as good as true 5.1 discrete.

Actually the pro logic 2 on the cube is fantastic - Rogue Leader is amazing with TIE fighters screaming all around you and laser fire coming from every direction.

Theres some other games with some really nice subtle touches - on the new Mario Kart, when a shell is approaching you from behind you get the sound creepig up on you.

And get Eternal Darkness, turn the lights off and play that - the wife thought I was murdering someone in the front room.

Hi

SP here, with regard to my mentioning of GTAVC, I was refering to the 1st thread

I have a ps2 and you chaps say there are no 5.1 games.

I know GC is`nt 5.1

PS2 has a couple of games which are 5.1, albeit DTS, GTAVC & SSX Tricky if I`m not
mistaken.
