Which side is first and which is last? I think it is too early to tell. We don\'t know much of anything about the GCN and Xbox to make a logical decision about this.

I voted PS.2-X-Box-NGC but I have to say lately the NGC has been getting me excited,it\'s growing on me (not the controller though).But I\'m equally excited about the X-Box.

Probly bacause Nintendo\'s target is the kids.They have a console which looks more kiddy and they don\'t have a lot of mature games.

Seeing how the only game systems I have now are dc, and ps2 how can I say how xbox will come in or even gamecube. IF we go buy specs then yes I could pick right now, but I would rather  wait until the consoles are out to judge them.

After Dark hasn\'t even been confirmed yet. How can it have an \'M\' rating?

Going on specualtion alone, I don\'t think that there will be a clear winner in this generation. It will be close like the 16 bit generation with one company pulling ahead after other companies move on.

Since MS is basically trying to take on Sony that will leave the door wide open for Nintendo.

I don\'t think the Xbox will do as well as some people expect it to. I mean, it has absolutely no fan base yet since it\'s the first MS console, it will definately bomb in Japan and probably will get little Japanese developer support because of this, it will be the most expensive system when it launches, and it doesn\'t seem to be getting any high quality exclusive games.

I just don\'t see how its possible for the Xbox to do better than GameCube. GameCube has Japanese support and will do ok in Japan, it will be the cheapest system out when it launches, it has plenty of fan support, it has tons of high quality exclusive games, and people will be curious about the GBA and NGC connectivy which means GBA owners will most likely purchase a GameCube.

My final pic-
1.PS2
2.NGC
3.Xbox

Yeah I picked PS2 over NGC but for a very good reason- the casual gamers are idiots. :)No matter how much PS2 sucks it will still win because of the PSX.

i agree with jumpman. i voted PS2-GC-X-box . actually i even doupt the x-box may even live for 2005. the x-box may not even become more popular than the DC this yer.

why? well.. the x-box is mainly trageting the generic gamers not hardcore, and this is were they will fail misrebly. MGS-X is the only savuir for x-box , but most people will be accointed with MGS2-PS2 before they know that there is an x-box version.

oddworld is a stupid freak game, halo is over-hyped. ampiet can no-way be better than SSX/SSX2. and the microsoft new racer will propaby suck compared to GT3. also PS2 has sega\'s VF4 which is not comming to x-box in addition to Tekkin4 and PS2 still has square. in addition, the PS2 has a juge head start, but october there should be 400 games out with 15 M consoles shiped. the x-box can\'t even play DVD movies out of the box ( no DVD player shiped ).

X-box may have MSR but that game sucks bad anyway i think GT3 just Kicks MSR\'s ass anytime.

additionally, the x-box graphic capabilities have been over hyped. for example, the current GeForce2 Ultra with 32MB  VRAM is theoretically capable to handle 25M Polygons. but Quake3 just has a peak of 3M Polygons. and the framerate in Quack3 significantly drops whenever more than one badie is on screen at once because of limitation of the engine.  Quack3 engin is not even a true 3D engin, it is a semi-3D ( graphic tricks which look a lot like 3D ) that\'s why the engine can only be used for spesific purposes and cannot be used for flight simulation.

why GC better than x-box? GC has zelda, pokemon, mario. they have a strong following.

Shouldn\'t this be in the console debating forum????


I don\'t believe there will be a clear winner this generation though...

considering all of the games coming out for ps2,
and the price drop, the realunch(when will that happen?)
and other reasons i think it will be ps2,x-box,gamecube
x box will be in second because people hate microsoft, simple as that. also it will be more expencive thatn ps2, the games wont look better (at launch), so parents will probably opt to buy the cheaper one, thinking their kids wont care..(this occured during the pd2 launch last christmas.
:D :D :D :D :D
thats my opinion
IM BACK. you have a problem with that? get in the back.
