for christmas i have the choice between xbox or ps2. wut 1 should i choose??????????????????
-
want games now - PS2
want games later - get both
simple enough
-
hehe Hummm.......which one you want? I love my Xbox!! :D
-
PS2 coz there\'s more games, better games, better controller, more prestigious exclusives (Final Fantasy series, Xeno Gear Series, Gran Turismo sequels, Tekken (which I\'m not fond of)).
Also, it plays PSX games. And really, what consoles can truly match the depth of games that PSX has today? None. You\'d have to pull out NES and SNES for that question.
It plays DVDs right out of the box. Sure, the DVD technology in the PS2 by now is about three years old(was one of the best at the time it was conceived) but it\'s still better than VHS.
-
i know that ps2 has alot of good games but i dont think that the graphics meet my demands.
I rented both, and xbox has way better graphics but some the games arent very good, but the games that r good r alot of fun.
And ps2 doesent have such good graphics but it has alot of good games.
but over all i would say that the xbox is better cuz saving, game play, and just pure enjoyment.so i think thats wut i will get.
-
And ps2 doesent have such good graphics
:rolleyes:
than why did you waste yer time asking?
-
*sees troll*
*goes back to TMB* (Damn you Warhawk!!)
-
Graphics? Hmmm....it ain\'t THAT much better. Oh well, when he plays the PS2 version of SSX Tricky....he\'ll understand what I mean about "better controller". :D
-
This is funny, he says he didn\'t have much fun with some of the games on xbox, but he goes on to say he likes it more, he says that after stating a couple times that he doesn\'t think the PS2 graphics meets his needs, well I would have to say your a graphics whore, picking graphics over gameplay, thats sad, oh and I still think your nuts if Jak and Daxter, Baldurs Gate, MGS2, GT3, and all the other games that I won\'t mention don\'t meet your graphics requirements
-
its amazing all these x boxs addicts but when you get down to brass taxes ps 2 wins for now dep libirary perfect controller backward game playing ability and dam have you seen final fantsay 10 wow x box will be a huge sucess this time next year but i love my ps 2 i dare any one to say that final fantsay 10 has graphic problems its off the hook name me one game on x box can compare to its graphics and game play
-
I did not waste my time. I wanted to know some other peoples opinions on the subject. Im not picking graphics over game play but I know that their will be alot of great games for xbox preety soon so if u combine great games with great graphics u have the best system. and i would say halo could campair its graphics and game play
-
combine great games with great graphics u have the best system.
yer missing another ingredient to the pot
user base
-
name 3 awesome titles comming to market in the next 3 months well i can buffy looks great a mechgame to but lets face it most developers going multi platforms meaning all the systems have the same games i have a ps 2 it has the perfect controler ever made the x box controller is made for a gorilla they need to fix that i have been hearing rumors of over heating proably false and lets not forget that dam 35 dollar remote for dvd i will bye a x box in 1 year from today but not now till they get the cracking games out its about soft ware not the graphics and game play baby look at final fantsay 7 a but ugly game but dam i was hooked like a crack addict lol i was playing 5 hours aday lol it was like reading a good book untill xbox gives me that i cant agree with buying one and final fantsay 10 got me hooked to dam had it 3 days loged 20 hours all ready lol
-
Kenneth,
I don\'t live too far from you. :D
But you really need to use punctuations in your sentences! :)
-
I think that ps2 and xbox are, or should be in it for the long run, but i would get a ps2 then xbox, (gamecube doesnt have the games "i" like). Ps2 has the games, bacwards compatability, and a dvd player straight out. soon it will have internet play and with the giant userbase i think you will find some eager opponents. The xbox has some suprizingly good games and some not so impressive ones as well. I\'m not sure where xbox is going so im waiting to see what it has in store for its future. One thing about good games on x box is that im not sure they will last that long, and i have played the majority of games for it. I play games like a drug and i think that the ps2 has what i need. I dont know about u.
-
Is it me or are all the other systems getting some of ps2\'s greater games? (not all AAA titles but a lot of others, along with some AAA titles such as, mgs2, ssxtricky, etc.). And another thing. Some of the same developers that are making great games for systems like x box are making crap on others. Where\'s the inspiration? Its not grafix that make a game good its the content. Sometimes i think that developers have no imagination and or inspiration : (. Im not being paranoid im just wondering.

I think you mean "brass tacks."

Id go for PS2 coz the games at the moment kill xboxs few A+ titles.
-
I\'d say PS2, hands down.
Or up, really it doesn\'t matter where your hands are - I\'d still pick PS2.
If for no other reason than SSX and GTA3, PS2 is a great system. The controller is much better, too.
The one thing that doesn\'t matter so much to me is the backwards compatibility. A lot of those games, no matter how great, are years old and getting a cheapy is always disappointing.
Besides, the current PS2 lineup more than holds its own. About the farthest back I would go would be PS2 launch to pick up Dynasty Warriors. That was pretty awesome.
Heh, and as far as backwards compatibility goes, they should have put in a VHS option since the early consoles tend to crap out in the DVD department. ;]

yeah i should use punctuation lol but i dont like it lol my wife always riding me about it but getting back to x box vs ps 2.lol theres some punctuation lol.
play final fantsay 10 and tell me that is not the prettiest game you ever saw x box will always be a step behind they need to get some x box exclusive that rock your world with visuals and game play all that power they need to bring the games to market that we love me personally its rpg
-
rage you\'ve obviously not seen Halo in person.
and if you have then your blind...I love FFx with all my soul and the graphics are amazing.
But Halo clearly beats them...gameplay cant compare cause they are completely differen\'t generes but as an FPS Halos gameplay is amazing and the fact that Halos gameplay is as good as it is on a CONSOLE makes it deserve more points.
-
i really want FFX but i dont own PS2..
well i would have to agree PS2 has GREAT games out for it now but some of them are going or already on Xbox (SSX) , Gta3, MGS2(Possibly)
But what does PS2 have for it next year? THATS the BIG question here

Yes, your a GC fan, thats nice, but there is no need to bring it up in this thread

Here are a lot of the games that I\'m looking forward to in 2002:
State of Emergency
Grandia 2
Parappa the Rapper 2
Drakan: The Ancient\'s Gate
Maximo
Virtua Fighter 4
Wipeout Fusion
Getaway
Kingdom Hearts
Onimusha II
Soul Calibur 2 (late 2002)
Mortal Kombat 5 (late 2002)
Tekken 4
Timesplitters 2
FFXI
Wild Arms 3
XenoSaga
Ape Escape 2
Pirates of Skull Cove
Airblade
I\'m sure others here could list other games too. The PS2 isn\'t going to just lay down and die now that it has around a 20 million userbase. Even though it is the hardest to program for out of all the next gen consoles, it is still most of the developer\'s #1 system to develope for because of the huge userbase (For example, Sega). This E3 will show a lot more games for the PS2, Xbox, and NGC. I wouldn\'t be surprised if out of all three systems, the PS2 has the most new games announced for it though.
-
yeah i am visual impared halo is a awesome game and so is doa 3 but what else they got my man i am not saying x box not going to be the best system ever i am saying what they have on market now isnt worth me owning it ps 2 was for my money a great buy x box going to control the market but needs some exclusive titles that make you buy it like tekken series like final fantsay to name few its all about soft ware ask nintendo they had a monster sytem but it didnt produce enough software now its dead ask sega about ther 698 million dollar debt because of the satur sega cd and cega 32x no soft ware and your hard ware is a piece of junk vapor ware wont be abale to make money but bill gates got good buissness sense but belive me he better make sure there arent to many direct ports of games because whats the point of owning a system that has the same software as the competion if it plays the same and just has a few more pologons here and there

some retard named Mish:
But what does PS2 have for it next year? THATS the BIG question here
nice logic...by your reconning...oh gee, what is XBox getting after this year.. oh dear, what games is PS2 getting in 2005...I DONT SEE ANY, ITS GOING TO FAIL
...nice one you ****ing spastic
-
it\'s amazing u came into a ps2 chatroom and asked which one to get. Ha HA HA HA HA HA. I wonder would they would tell you on a xbox forum. HMMMMMMMMMMM
I say get what the hell you want. The xbox is a great system and so is ps2. It depends on what you want. NoT everyone likes the same damn games. Not everyone can afford to buy a lot games. So just get what the hell you want. Don\'t let anyone tell you to get ps2 or xbox decided for yourself. Because surely your going to get bias decions across to board.

Quddus you ****ing moron, he came here because he wanted advice, because he COULDNT make up his own mind. Use your ****ing brain dip****. who cares if he came to a PS2 board, people still give their opinions, and he has gotten a few unbiased resposes as well, and has basically seen the truth that the XBOx will be good, but currently the PS2 is better, andin the future...WHO KNOWS...certainly not....BATMAN...that wanker

YADDA-YADDA Shuddup. I was not talking too you kid. If I need a childs input then I will pm you and ask you for it. But until then stay in a childs place. And He still should be able to make up his own damn mind. Jeesh grow up little boy. This had nothin to do with which console better. Can you freakin read. I was just saying if you come to a site catered to any system they sure are not going to tell you not to pick other one.

both of you better cool down, before i ...
wake the chimp
he\'s grumpy as hell in the morning

****ing spastic, did YOU even read my post you ass pirate, i said that you were a ****ing moron, because you said that he should make up his own mind. what kind of cock sucking ****** says that to a guy who obviously cant make up his own mind hence forth, he has come to a sight (this isnt necessarily his only one) to find out what other people think of it...if he\'s such a moron he cant figure out he\'s going to get a biased response (even though half of the posts are trying to remain unbiased, which you neglected to notice) then how the **** is he going to decide what to spend his money on "duhh, this one looks pretty"
p.s. it really doesnt make you sound more mature than me, just because you call me a child *pokes toungue out then masturbates profusely*
-
haha, mm got in before i did :D

*pokes toungue out then masturbates profusely*

I won\'t even resort to cursing. For that is not needed. But I see you think that is the only way you can get your point across. Once again your showing your childish ways.
And regardless he still should make up his own damn mind anyways. No one can pick a console for you. And I was not even talking too you. I never even mention your useless user name. Why am I even replying to you like your worth the key strokes. Because for 2825 post you have proven that your not.
-
lmao! hahaha, im just mesing with you man (ask Fastson and a few other who are online that i send the link to whenever i call someone a "retard" etc. :D) :) its all good, i dont have a problem with you (although you prolly do with me now :D) ahh well...good times, had by all
:fro: toot on
btw. your reply was really lame as well :D

CALM DOWN I WAS ASKING A QUESTION!!

Eik, maybe I misunderstood your point but you do know that second pic is an Xbox game called Blood Reign, and I think it\'s exclusive to boot. Maybe you were going for the obvious.
-
An xbox exclusive? No. its coming out for both ps2 and gamecube as well. I\'m not sure about gc but i know its coming out for ps2
-
Well....that picture has the Nintendo/Adventure logo on the lower left corner. Maybe they made a mistake?

Never let it be said that Kimathi can never admit when he\'s wrong. Somehow I thought this game was an Xbox exclusive...sorry Eik, I goofed. Thanx for the correction Lord Nicon.

If u\'ve only budgetted for one and only one console, it gotta be the PS2.
when u\'ve extra money , then wait and see if the X-Box lives or die.
If u\'re filthy rich, then stop asking idiotic question like this and buy all three consoles!!!
