XBox. No contest.

PS2. Owning from '01.

I like PS2 more because I have tons of old PS1 games, plus some of my favorite series are on PS2. However, I like the Xbox for Halo2 and its processing power.

PS3 will beat Xbox 360.

Yeah, although I think Xbox 360 is being released before PS3. Because PS2 was releaded before the Xbox and they think that that's why PS2 was better.

The PS3 will have a better processor I thought. Even if it is only equal to the Xbox 360, it has 10+ years of mindshare and can play games from all 3 systems.

Why isn't Gamecube an option? Or even just a general "Other"? :rolleyes:

Xbox. Better graphics, hard drive (no memory cards), and I just generally (despite a lot of criticism) prefer the ergonomic shape of the Xbox controller.

Because it's just what's better out of PS2 and Xbox.

PS2, simply because it has Gran Turismo. If Xbox had GT, I'd buy it instead.

It's got Forza.

It has Online Play.

Yeah, and GT4 has better gameplay.

That makes online play obsolete.

I've played both... Forza's more fun than GT4. It even seems to have better physics.

GT4 is the most realistic driving sim, same as the previous three were. That's why I have the PS.

Well, that's just because the GT4 A.I. is no good (they just drive in straight lines, like machines!). But the GT games are like a dynasty, and I don't especially like new competitors that have different labels but are basically the same thing underneath (iRiver, Forza) saying that they are better than the original.

I've played both as well, I've never really liked XBox, and the PS2 has always had the better games.

I can understand that, and yeah, the PS2 does have better games (much more games, too).

However, Forza is a different game. You can paint your cars, customize them with decals and vinyl trim, and tweak them. Don't forget online play.

And, there was an article in Popular Science... Or was it Popular Mechanics... Anyway, it was on the physics modeling of Forza, saying how incredibly accurate it is; that it's like you're controlling the real cars without you sitting in them.

All I know's that when I played it at Gamestop, it was good.

I'd love to customise my GT car's paint schemes. Hoon Brothers Racing will yet be reality!

Having only played PS2 I am only guessing that if I had the choice I would pick a XBox simply because I haven't played it.

neither. both are a waste of time.

and i feel the same about the computer... it's wasting my time... however, i'm mildly addicted and it's a good subduer for me.
when i need to wind my life down a little and i can't bum a cigarette. that's when i get on the computer. or when i'm bored...


but i'm not big into comp games, or video games. okay that's all.

go feed your brain, read a book, burn a tabloid, feed a model.. blah blah you know the jist

Pfff, you know they'll just put their fingers at the back of their tongues and throw it up. :rolleyes:

might as well try. and i doubt they're all like that. and anyway, it's a saying and has extended meaning beyond its literal meaning.
you know what i mean.

back on topic now.

PS2 because they are so tiny now and for GTA3:SA and Killzone :-)

Although, I think the PC is better than any console.

WONDERFUL.

Along with being tired, I'm utterly confused. Thanks!
