What Should I Get?

I'm planning on getting a system pretty soon (XBOX, GameCube or PS2). I just need some advice an opinions on what system I should get. Mainly it's between PS2 and XBOX.

PS2: lot's of wicked games, easy to download games
XBOX: a few wicked games (Halo, Halo 2 (soon) and a lot more), games can be burned
GAMECUBE: can't burn games easily, some good games (Zelda, Metroid, Mario, Resident Evil)

How easy is it to find/burn XBOX games? If you reply please have opinions to back it up since I need some convincing on which I should get. What are other good games that are out/coming out?

Let see, Downloading games of the net and burning is no longer the way to go because to be honest, it don't exist no more. Don't believe anyone who tells you about it. Its all about ftp man (thank go for mirc ). First of all, ps2 and xbox allow you to have burned games in cd or dvd format. the ps2 requires a modchip(Magic 3.1 is the best one out of all) and xbox can also have modchips or have its bios changed to read burned games. There is no way to copy Gamecube games because of their archeticure. If anyone tells you its possible, they are bullshitting you. Just remember for the xbox and the ps2 to read up before you go out and buy the modchips.

Ps. Downloading games of the net dude, it totally gay. Dont bother. go on mirc, and work from there.

Sorry if I'm the first to tell you this but mirc is part of the internet . Not only that but programs like Direct Connect also have lots of XBOX and PS2 ISO's. I know all about PS2 and XBOX, burning games wise since I allready download and burn PS2 games. Gamecube games can definately be burned if you have DVD's that are that small and they do exist. The PS2 modchip is really expensive though, the best one (no booting required) would be 2/3's of the price of the PS2 itself (including installation) so PS2 would end up costing me about $500 Canadian. XBOX if I can just get the BIOS modded or changed then it would probably be cheaper or free if I can do it myself so XBOX would end up being cheaper. Gamecube is most likely out of the question since I don't own a DVD burner and don't know where to get small DVD-R's but I could probably find ISO's or a guide on how to rip them somewhere.

I dunno man,I have em all But if I had to pick one I'd probably pick Xbox because the games are better for muilti-player. Friends and I still play Halo, crazy matches! Xbox is finally starting to get good games.

Since I have lots of video game fanatic friend and my girlfriend loves video games too thats an idea...... I absolutely love Halo and Halo 2 will most certainly rock. Also the Matrix game coming out looks wicked. Can anyone give me price info on the modchip/BIOS edit and also info on how hard it is to download/burn/boot up the XBOX games. Thanks for the input so far, much appreciated.

Well by internet I meant actual websites. I hear people always saying to me that they're downloading games off the net and burning them. That is very old, and stupid. Mirc is the true way to go.

I didn't know XBOX plays DivX movies!?!?!?!?. I've burned lots of Divx movies as plain AVI files, do I have to convert them at all and what do I need to play them on the XBOX?

XBOX is great because of the few multiplayer games that it has and lots of extra features because of the hard drive .

What other hacks are there for XBOX? Like maybe emulators, video players, etc.?

BTW internet means everything. When someone says they have the internet it means they have access to web pages, P2P programs, etc. You subscribe to the internet, you get a modem, you use the modem to connect to P2P programs like mircs, kazaa and also web pages therefore the internet is everything that makes use of the modem, and without the modem mirc is useless.
