If this pans out, it'll be a must buy.

God dammit! Why no Live support?!

This is why I let my Live account die.. every game on Live is either FPS, sports or racing.

I would have like to seen live support on this game as well. Four mokey balls racing on the same map, or at least the kick ass mini games.

Yeah, this would be a no-brainer as a live game. The party games especially would be a blast online.

They could always decide to add it in. Maybe it'll help if Sega gets enough requests for it.

Man this would be nice. I'd love to have the Monkey Ball series without getting a Gamecube.

Love it. Since I sold my Cube this is the only game I miss.

Hmm...what about Crimson Skies, MechAssault and the upcoming MechAssault 2: Lone Wolf?

The X-Box analog stick sucks for this game.

Petition tha motha fucka.

The GCN one is actually a little too loose for my liking. I think the analog stick would be tighter and more enjoyable on the Xbox controller, but who knows either way until you try it right?

added pics to the first post.

Based on the picture of the L & R buttons in the first pic, that looks to be the Gamecube version.
