well so far the ps2 has NFS, and the best racing games(GT3(4), F355, etc). GC has the best controller actually, but the sony is the industry standard. add on peripherals is a little murky tho. i imagine the xbox may just support PC like that, but then again i think the ps2 does the same with USB.
oh and Virtua Fighter 4 is out on ps2, and its the best fighter ever| |

PC games are all what i play now, even though ive played about 4 in the last 2 years. |

ps2 for sure
the games are way better..
and just look at the games comming out this month. Grand Theft Auto Vice City, and Auto Modelista.
those two games are reason enough to buy it. |

...or for the Final Fantasy X-2... hahaha... Squaresoft is desperate :(
(I'm not joking here)...
But yeah, I just realised that I forgot to mention that PS2 has many interesting titles, whereas xbox game selection is eeeky... :(
But all depends on your tastes.. :) |

well say what you want, but Xbox has the nude volleyball game coming out, and nude skating games....
back in the dorms i used to live in, my roommate had a PS2, and my friend down the hall had Xbox... and i don't have either but i would have gotten the Xbox... they have that virtua-fighter game (whatever its called) on the xbox as well, graphics are AMAZING... you'd get kicked from level to level and it was just unbelievable... granted you don't have GTA or GT3, but oh well.
it basically comes down to which games are your favorite and which system their on i guess.... but PS2 doesn't have HALO - which IMO is one of the best games ever made. I was going to buy Xbox just for that game. :) |

But Audo Modelista is . It really is. GTA3: VC looks great, though.
I would take a GameCube over the PS2, and a PS2 over the Xbox. Especially since the Xbox is dying in it's arse everywhere (bar the US). |

| I'd call the XBOX a better investment, much better technology and hey you can run it as a mp3 server or something on linux now too |

Granted, Xbox has one good reason going for it, and thats Halo. But Halo is coming out on PC, so whats the point of buying an Xbox for it? The controller is absolutely horrible, PS2's is a lot better (although Gamecube has the most comfy controller) and other than Halo, PS2 has waaaaaay better games. Metal Gear Solid 2, for starters. Then you got Gran Turismo 3, Grand Theft Auto 3, Tekken 4, Virtua Fighter 4 (oh, ATB, you're referring to Dead or Alive 3. Other than the bounciness and graphics, there's nothing half-good about that game imo)...anyways, the list goes on and on. Normally, I would argue and say "Get a Gamecube instead" (and DO NOT say its kiddie, cuz there's a lot of games that aren't kiddie, people just don't really see them cause they're not marketed :(), but since Nintendo sold Rareware to Microsoft...heh, asses to them.
Get a PS2, it has the least chance of failing, so it's a good investment cause you know the system will be supported by major developers and you're getting a system that you know has a lot of variety, can play DVD's (so can xbox, but with a special remote that u need to buy). Plunk out money on an Xbox if you want 1 good game, "superior" technology and is neck-and-neck with the Gamecube in sales (PS2 is selling better than both the Xbox and Gamecube combined). |
