If you have XBox, XBox...

If you have PS2, PS2...

If you have both, neither...

I voted ps2 because the games are cheaper to buy and there is a bigger games catalogue to choose from.

I said PS2. Huge game library, even without PSX-compatibility. Cheaper all-around.

I picked GCN (and eventually Xbox) as my consoles, but for the most part PS2 > Xbox.

I like PS2 better for a couple reasons. One, I have it and two I like the games better. Although Xbox is starting to get better games. I think PS2 will take the cake this generation but I can\'t wait until next generation, see what comes out.

GC>PS2>Xbox

I haven\'t bought a game for my Xbox since Feb...and my last PS2 game was Kingdom Hearts back in Sept...My GC gets all my time and the trend looks to continue.

Skies of Arcadia, Vexx, and Zelda in the next 3 months...

I\'d go with PS2 between your choices, you can get alot of good games for 20$ a piece.

I agree completely.  My Gamecube easily gets most of my playtime these days.  I don\'t even have an X-Box.

I still like DC better than them all...

Long live the dead consoles...

PS2 coz it has every kind of games you ever need..the best RPG\'s. I would love to get an XBOX but as it is, I can\'t even finish the games on the PS2!!! Arrrggghh!!

I voted Xbox.  I\'ve had both, and for my tastes Xbox is my stud.  I\'m a sports whore, and the Xbox sports games are all around better.  I also like epic RPG\'s and until Morrowind, consoles had been missing this genre (I don\'t count games with less than 50 hours of game play).  While the Xbix doesn\'t have the RPG\'s of the PS2, it\'s shoxing improvment.  MS has a couple RPG\'s on the horizon, namely Fable.

But both consoles whoop ass, can\'t go wrong with either.

maybe Gamecube and PS2 both have streaks, I\'ve thought about firing up some oldies for kicks on my PS2, but I just got PSO for GC and am gonna get addicted to that.

X-Box I play every so often, but not enough to truly develop a love for the system.  However my PC Gaming takes up a huge chunk of games... so in my opinion...

PC > PS2 = GC > XBox

PS2 for games that you like to play alone or with a friend or two. But as for multiplayer with up to sixteen guys shooting it out with a cool first person shooter…I guess the Xbox takes that one. As for my over-all vote, I will have to go with the PS2. I own both and I like them both but I never have to dust off my PS2 controllers where as I very seldom take out the Xbox ones.
