I say PS2, by the way.

xbox by a mile

asuna · 04-11-2003, 03:54 PM

I'll take whatever Lensman sends me

Daymare · 04-11-2003, 03:55 PM

Even Halo is worth buying the system for

OneHungLo · 04-11-2003, 03:57 PM

Xbox ... get the live package and pick up Ghost Recon..if you have an addictive personality do not get this.

As pathetic as it sounds i have actually turned down pussy to sit home and play this game

Jizzman · 04-11-2003, 04:01 PM

xbox, wolfenstein will be out soon for it!! and soul calibur! Play halo until these arrive, head to head with a buddy watch out for the needler weapon

bigdog · 04-11-2003, 04:41 PM

just get both

Jay_StandAhead · 04-11-2003, 04:47 PM

X-box

Kaz · 04-11-2003, 04:53 PM

Halo is coming out for pc soon, no point of buying xbox JUST for that.

chupacabra · 04-11-2003, 04:57 PM

as much as i enjoyed playing many games on my PS2, it is falling behind... the xBox has much superior hardware at this point, and many recent titles are making use of the xBox's possibilities... if you don't want to invest in both, just get an xBox *and* a modchip... after you've modded your xBox and put a larger hard-disc into it, you can walk into blockbuster, rent games, bring them home and have them copied into your xBox permanently so you can... uhh... 'evaluate' the game to see if you like it at your leisure..!

And how much longer is the general games industry going to keep producing games for Xbox when their sales are decreasing instead of increasing.....?

All I can say is MS is buying up games producers for a reason - but even that is only going to do so much.

while i'm usually not a proponent for any blatant piracy (P2P, etc.), i'm not going to shed a tear for M$ over the modding issue... the PS2 was modded soon after release and whatever priacy went on didn't stop Sony from reaping massive piles of cash along w/ the success of the machine.

however, i couldn't count the number of times i've purchased expensive console games ($50-$60 apiece) based on reviews and screenshots on the box, only to come home and find that the game in question wasn't worth the media it was pressed onto..

Thats true but the PS1 wasn't involved in a console war at the same level the Xbox is. The Xbox is the system trying to play catch up. By making the games easier to rip, that certainly encourages peopel to buy the boxes but since its already a smaller market for the Games manufacturers, this could be the final reason to give up on the system.

I definately like to rent games before buying them - gives you a better idea if its hype or not.

Funbrunette · 04-11-2003, 06:11 PM

PS2!

KRL · 04-11-2003, 06:19 PM

PS 2

Indeed · 04-11-2003, 06:42 PM

none of them...just buy a Geforce 4 and play games online

Stallion · 04-11-2003, 07:18 PM

xbox, it's a very nice stress reliever.. heheh I had both ps2 and xbox and imho xbox was better.

04-11-2003, 08:34 PM

ps2 of course
has the EMOTION ENGINE
7 times more games than the Xbox
any xbox game you name me, I will find you a ps2 game that is better (except for halo, ps2 dont have a game like that)

so its up to you
you want HALO? or you want EVERYTHING ELSE?

gluck with this HARD desicion

(btw just for you to know, I have both XBOX and a PS2, both modded, 450 games on the ps2, 100games on the xbox)

when friends come over for a few beers we always play PS2, the xbox is collecting dust

i disagree, but you're entitled to your opinion.

04-11-2003, 08:42 PM

maybe so, I just find splinter cell WAY TO SLOW for a action/espionnage game

although I know espionnage is meant to be slow, I am sorry, but spliter cell seemed just horrible gameplay wise
graphic-wise great game, but the gameplay just made me regret wasting a blank dvd

SomeCreep · 04-11-2003, 09:08 PM

pee-es-tu

ForrestBlack · 04-11-2003, 09:17 PM

I love my XBOX. I've been playing Unreal Championship on XBOX Live a lot lately, but I only get the chance to play at about 4:00am pacific, which means I mostly get the voices of screaming French 13 year olds on the headset, and occasionally German. That's kinda odd. It sounds nice, but I don't really speak French.
