got both.. Xbox is the way to go, altho the PS2, although aging, does have quite a lot of good games left in it yet.

2 reasons why you say that

1) you probably can't afford one
2) also because Halo2 is only on that right now

:p

I used to have both, but then I sold my X-Box. And why? Simple. They didn't make any games for it that I would have been interested. And besides, I can play those old Playstation games on PS2, so why wouldn't I like it more?

Ps2; because I already own one :p

Er, also because I can't think of any x-box exclusive games I want, either.  And PS2 gets Pro Evo and GTA earlier, and those are the only console games I play.

Ps2...all Xbox has is Halo 2, which you can rip and probably emulate on your computer soon enough (they got it working with Halo! :))

As a system, the X-Box is streets ahead.

But, in the same way it whipped the Saturn, the Playstation is a better buy because of the masses and masses of games for it.

The X-Box suffers from Jaguar Syndrome. It's a superior console, but the pricing and lack of games cripples it's audience range.

Jaguar Syndrome is a bit of an exaggeration. Although the PS2 has twice the shelf space for games in most stores, the XBox is still the second most popular console on the market. Hell, some stores have stopped selling Gamecube paraphanalia altogether - even the Dixons 'superstore' in Birmingham has no trace of the GC these days.

That's cause no one cares about the Gamecube. Nintendo's own reputation and fans are hurting it. Nintendo has a rep for producing kiddie games and the like, and most of the games specifically for the gamecube were of that ilk. All Nintendo relies on is it's pop-culture status, such as Mario and Metroid. Otherwise, they're games are kiddie games that no regular gamer would ever pick up.

All I say is: Final Fantasy

So Microsoft, buy Square, or say good by to your X-box dream. ;)

Definitely X-Box for its ease of modability. :)
Title: xBox vs PS2
Post by: MatthewPapa on November 30, 2004, 03:42:28 pm
X-BOX because of its superior specs, networking and yes...modability. If you put one of those 250 gig hard drives in it that thing can hold quite a few games. I dont dislike PS2, I just enjoy X-BOX more.

"Console Wars" = Waste of time.
Like with most things in life, it comes down to a matter of opinion.

Honestly. If you can't post something intelligent at least once in a while, don't post at all.

PS2 gets my vote because you can play online for free.
Title: xBox vs PS2
Post by: Deepblue on December 01, 2004, 04:19:54 pm
But you get really horrible lag, whereas the occurance of lag on XBL is virtually nonexistent and you get content downloads.

Which may be charged extra for.

If you want online play, anyways, the Pc is still king.

Most content downloads are free. Some stuff like the new maps pack (like 6 maps) costs 5 bucks and is charged to credit.

In my case, I like the game lineup on X-Box better than on PS2.  Both PS2 and X-Box were too expensive when they came out...but now they are both cheap and come with lots of extras.

So thats a bonus!

I never get lag on PS2.

And you probably use a broadband connection. XBL requires a broadband connection so that if someone kills you, you can't blame it on lag. THere is none.

This discussion is pretty much a moot point anyway since Xbox Next is expected to be (officialy) announced in January and released later that year, and it will be followed soon after by Nintendo and Sony's next consoles.

I voted XBox. The quality is better. (I have both. The PS2 died on me. No console has ever died on me before. And it sure as hell wasn't from overuse. :doubt: )
