Omg, ps2 ftw.

but yeah ps2 had the better games because they brought a variety of games unlike xbox where i think a game took for ever? to come out.

and yeah. well i just stuck with ps2 since I had bought ps1 aswell. which was pretty good too.

:3 I owned both of them

But, I preferred the PS2 over the Xbox.

PS2 had better games in my opinion.

Only good thing I got from Xbox was probably playing Halo.

;) But, thats about it lol...

If that was one of the good things about Xbox then that was pointless. you can store music anywhere. what is the point of doing it on a xbox. waste of a feature.

NAh i agree with linux. ps3 has failed. although it mite have failed in the selection of the price not the games.

yeah but Halo took ages to bring out the games and besides Ps2 had so many good games that they brought out quickly that one took over another and they didnt out stand each other which if they would have done like Halo it would have been popular.

Halo took a fair amount of time to be released, being an experienced Halo 1 and 2 (soon to be 3) player I can confidently say Halo trumps most games on any console.

Halo 2 was a huge let down to the competetive community, It was unbalanced and unbareable for competetive online play, but this didn't make it a bad game, it was still one of the most sucessful games to date.

Xbox's controller is ALOT more desirable for me becuase it has the FPS prefered thumbstick layout.

I only play FPS and Racnig games and I prefer the xbox for both.

The Xbox is big, I'll give you that, but when you compare features (if we want to get specific) it's size can be justified for its time.

The 'Duke' (the large one that was released at launch) is larger but is very comfortable I find in my hands.

The S-controller is alot more comfortable in my hand (I use it on my PC with a home made USB cable (piss easy to make, I made a tutorial for xbox-zone ages ago) and even then, I find the thumbstick positions on the PS2 are CRAP for FPS or even 3PS.

Xbox's controller layout is much more acessible, you can reach alot while usnig the thumbsticks.

Anyway, at the end of the day it comes down to preference and Xbox is my gaming preference.

As for the PS3 vs 360, I've only seen a PS3 in pictures and it looked like a giant toaster with a dualshock 2 controller with the addition of a 360 style 'guide button'

Yeah obviously some of the features are going to go for either ps2 or xbox.

But yeah obviously it comes down to personal preference and with the control i actually prefer the ps2 one. even though i havent really played with teh xbox.

but for the newer i still think ps3 would be better even though its expensive because if we take out the factor of it being expensive ps3 does look better on Tv. and well some of the graphix ive seen for some of the games look pretty good.

That's because the PS2 was a big hit with the kids... which was because the GC was a failure.

Playstation 2 actually sold 39.1 million just in the USA and shipped about 120 million...

Xbox sold 24 million within the USA and im unsure about units shipped.

Also console choice comes down to personal choice! I happen to own a Gamecube but i prefer the Playstation 2 and play it constantly at my friends house... i have never really given Xbox a chance just looking at the large controller turns me off and when i did play halo with it i was honestly disappointed and i personally dont understand whats so special about the Halo series...

I prefer the PS2 because of the wide range of new and classic games (final fantasy, metal gear series, killzone, GTA:vice/San, Tekken/DoA, Gran Turismo...and many others that i dont have time to list)

I think the Xbox has definitely helped the gaming market with its interesting innovations and i consider it to be a reasonably entertaining console... but i prefer the ps2 and thats just my preference....

So blah!!! :-P

..::4 ppl who reckon ps has classic games::..

well no S**T (if i can say that) ps has classics as opposed to Xbox coz its way older.. classic pretty much means "old but quality" if Xbox was made in the 90's and halo or w/e was that old it would be called a 'classic'.. ps is classic.. but nething 90's is classic. . . . . . ...

Actaully Eric.. the Sega Dreamcast was the first console to feature online gameplay although only a few games were compatible with the online function... (look up phantasy star) :yes:

So ps2 came out first and brought out all the games. So when ever Xbox brought out the games that ps2 have aswell it just means that they got it of ps2. And just because it was popular on ps2, xbox brought it out making ps2 better first.

dude.... dude dude dude... playstation didnt design the games!! obviously sony has more money and idk maybe sum connections lol so they wer able to buy the games b4 xbox did... but its not their game.. its just as good on any console... sure there are some games (MGS.. FF.. GT etc..) that didnt come out on Xbox which boosts the quality.. but Xbox has games (Halo Series.. PGR.. Rallysport.. Ninja Gaiden) that ps dusnt have... so gamewise it dusnt matter who had the game first coz they didnt design it.. i care about what console can access the games i want... i reckon xbox is better coz i prefer the games on it.. thats pretty much t.. sure if playstation had the same games as xbox i wouldnt really care what i have.. but i just happen 2 like the games that xbox happens to have.. also it can play personalized soundtracks..

They werent well known now there putting them re - releasing them on the PS3 and the Xbox 360 they should be noticed this time. Which is good because they are good games. Especially Riddic.
