In the USA the Xbox and the PS2 are the same price.
I do want some of the same games that are on the Ps2 to come to the Xbox , but I don\'t want ports. I want them to be re-done for the Xbox to take advantage of it\'s power.

But thats my point. If you want some of the games on the PS2 why don´t you get one? If you want them completely re-done you are dreaming.
The reason IMO that x-box only gets PS2 ports instead of completely re-done version is money. There is to few x-boxes out there to make any profit on the games.
A game like MGS2 would be suicide to re-program to use all x-box power. They can´t make any profit on the game.
Think about Oddworld, that game has been in develop for over 2,5 years. the game sold like crap. They lost tons of money.
If they had sticked with the PS2 the game would have been completed earlier and the game would have sold more.(still suck)
And when they said that the game can´t be done on PS2 I lost all interested in that company.
the point is: as long as the userbase on the x-box is so low the x-box will get PS2 ports. MONEY MONEY!!!

*yawn*

All I do know.. And all I care about today.. is that my copy of METAL FICKING GEAR SOLID 2  is in da mail on its way to my frickin house..

Life is güüd :cool:
