I own a XOX too, Sony has more games but isnt that good compared to da XBOX.

3 GOODTHINGS ABOUT XBOX
# XBOX has better graphfix
# XBOX has an internal harddrive so you dont have to by memory cards.
# XBOX has HALO but sony dosent!!

3 GOODTHINGS ABOUT SONY
# Has more games than da XBOX
# Has Add ons like Eye-Toy
# ----------I'm not sure I cant think of any------------

But overall I would rate XBOX better.

PS. If i was you i wouldnt be buying a XBOX right now, i would save up for a XBOX 2.

Ok dude its like this, xbox is more powerful, has a harddrive and better graphics than ps2, so the graphics are gonna be crisp and beautiful for most games, but the thing is that:
1. the xbox is huge, heavy and harder to carry if you travel, like going home from college for the weekend.
2. xbox has a pretty good library of games, but cant compare the vast amount of awsome, absolutely stunning, and just plain incredibly fun games that the ps2 has.

So, even though the ps2 doesnt has a built in hard drive, if you buy one new, you know, they new slim style, it will be about 1/6 the size and weight of an xbox. If you buy a used ps2 to get the older style model, you have a chance of buying a harddrive for it, even though it doesnt have much use, besides on some games, and it is about half the size and weight of an xbox.

So get a ps2 instead of an xbox. Ps2 has so many incredible game that you will not be sorry. I recommend games like Metal Gear Solid 3, GTA: San Andreas, Jak 3, Ratchet and clank 3, and many many more games that are fun. Plus you can play your classic ps1 games on the ps2, and most ps1 games are very cheap, but still fun. You have so many games to choose from, unlike the xbox.

Loky,

I think that you should save up your pennies and ny an Xbox 2 or PS3 when they come out. Buying an Xbox or Playstation 2 would be a waste of money because I have heard that the PS3 will be backwards compatible. I do not know much about the Xbox 2 but I think that it will also be backwards compatible.

To sum up: Buy a PS3 smile.gif It will be on the list of The Top 300 Most Powerful Electronical Items.

unless you want to wait about a year or so for the Xbox 2 or PS3 which will both be very expensive at launch and drop in price within a few weeks probably, i'd get the Ps2 becuase there are better games in my opinion like Metal Gear Solid 3 and Tekken 5

I suggest you buying a PS2 cause it's have far more games than Xbox does and totally are better than Xbox's!


Also consider the fact that Xbox 2 will be released sooner that we expect, so the current Xbox will be probably ceased its production.

I hear that the PS3 will only be launched in about two years time. That price will be very expensive, so it's best to wait for about another year after the launch cool.gif

Xbox compared to Ps2....

Well, the XBOX has remarkably impressive graphics, whereas the Ps2's graphical capabilities are not so powerful. But really when you're looking for a console to buy, you really want to look at the games that it supports. The Ps2 has thousands of games, that, admittedly arn't all wonderful, but you have plenty of choice to find the game that suits you. Xbox has quite a few games too, just not as many.
Size-wise, the Xbox is massive. A bit too big in my opinion, which can kind of put some people off, Sony has just released a very slim line version of the Ps2 called the PsTwo. If I were you I'd get the PsTwo. This version has inbuilt inline play too. It's your decision. I need to add before I go that the Xbox's controllers smell weird, kind of like garlic. But to each his own.

Honestly I own pretty much all of the mainstream consoles since NES and in my opinion XBOX has better games. But I am a fan of first person shooters, anything outside that realm is PS2s realm. If you are gonna buy all new games, a fair amount are made for both consoles and look slightly better on XBOX. But if you wanna get all those good oldies out there PS2 is the platform you want. Just depends on what type of games you like to play is all.

to the people that say PS2 sucks compared to Xbox, you're right!!!!!!!! you're totally right!!!! but try thinking about it this way. What if Xbox came out first instead of PS2? if that had happened, PS2 could have totally wiped out Xbox in the graphics, sound, cpu speed and other departments. Would you you still be with Xbox, or would you be with the more powerful PS2? would you sell your xbox for the more powerful ps2? think about that for a while. Okay. onto the next part. Xbox2 is coming out first , but that means Sony could totally know how to defeat xbox2. So, it all matters what time the consoles are released. But, if Nintendo waits after both console launches, they could end up being the most techincally able of the bunch. But, which one would you do? would you wait to by the technologically superior Gamerevolution, or would you buy the PS3 and/or the Xbox2? That's how PS2 won. But, Unlike some consoles who release first, they actually but very good quality games at the beginning of the console's. So, If Xbox2 puts Superb games from the beginning, they'll definitely have a much better chance at winning the console wars. But, if they don't have a strong launch, an they have very sucky games, Microsoft will only end up selling the Xbox2 instead of the games (Xbox2's other features: watch movies, play music, good storage drive... etc.). But, as you probably know, Console makers make the most profit off of their games, not the consoles. But, Sony has an advantage over the Xbox2 if its games don't sell well: Sony owns a movie making company (if people liked spiderman2 that much, imagine how many people will go to see spiderman3. big bucks for sony). So it all depends on those factors to determine how well each console does. Note to Xbox owners: Would you by an Xbox2, that could cost 500 dollars (or more, for that matter) for Halo3, If that was the only good game? would you only buy the console for that game? probably not. especially if Halo3 gets ported to the pc, like halo did. and, Halo on the pc had better graphics than the one on the xbox. So, you'd be buying the only good game for the Xbox2, when you could be getting it for the PC, which has better graphics and a deeper library of games. Point is, if a system only had one flagship title that was super good, would you shell out money for the console just to play that one game? Or, would you buy a system that had games close or even not as good as that one game, but were still extremely fun? kind of the same thing that was going on when the Xbox first released, Isn't it? When the Xbox first came out, that was the only game really backing it. And sony, on the other hand, had quite a few games backing its console (Granturismo 4, JakI, Tekken 4, SSX 3...). So, if Xbox2 doesn't get enough really good games, the system may not appeal to the hardcore or even the casual gamer, because there's no game which really makes the Xbox2 look good. But, you don't have to be worried about the Xbox2's graphical capabilities. If you've read this month's game informer, chances are you've heard of the new game condemned, coming out for Xbox2 AND PS3. The game was running on Xbox2 hardware (prototype), and the graphics were beautiful. they put Doom 3's and Half-life 2's to shame (put an emphasis on the graphics looking better than Doom3 and Half-life2 part). Xbox2's graphics are Super Super Super Super... Super good, but the PS3's could be better if Sony takes a look at the Xbox2 and holds back the release date so they can improve the hardware. So, we'll just have to wait and see. Another factor we should be worrying about is the new controllers. Will the controllers have a mind-numbing ammount of buttons? Maybe, but we'll just have to wait and see.

AH......The age old argument between the Playstation 2 and the Xbox...in my opinion, the Playstation 2 is better then the Xbox, but i still feel if you have plenty of spare money, then it may just be worth buying an Xbox aswell.

The Playstation 2 offers an absolutely huge array of different types of games, a choice which the competition cannot even come close to rivalling.

Many people are quick to point out that Xbox graphical capabilities are greater than those of the Playstation2, but i would hardly say that the Playstation 2's graphics are too bad in comparison. If you play games like Metal Gear Solid 2 and Metal Gear Solid 3, then you are able to see what the Playstation 2 itself can offer as far as the graphics department is concerned.

Even though this may not be the most important factor in determining how good a console is, the Playstation 2 has a much better physical appearance then the chunky Xbox. The newer PS2 slimline version emphasises the difference between the two consoles as far as appearance is concerned.

Despite everything i have said, an Xbox is still worth getting aswell, because it has some very high quality games. My point is that as far as a head to head contest is concerned, the Playstation 2 beats Xbox everytime in my opinion.

(This is only my opinion, feel free to make your own viewpoint but don't shout at me because of my own views)
