Xbox vs. PS2

Only time will tell.

Who cares who will be better, as long as we find games we like for both consoles.

who buys most consoles.  parents.
if a parent walks into a strore, do u really think they will walk out of the store with an xbox?  no.

the xbox is going to crash and burn.  bill and his stockholders can throw all the money they have into advertising it, but the customer recognition just isnt there.   sure , theyll sell a few to the "ex hippie, turned techie" crowd.

just ask 3DO about having superior technology and no user base



oh, and now i need facts?  personally, i dont care either way.  more than likely ill buy one used, cause im an oddworld freak, and it will be my only opportunity.

MM you make no sense. When psx first came out it had no user base. And look at it now.  Comparing 3do to xbox is like comparing a Temp to a Mustang.

All system when the first launch have no user base. That is pointless view you through out. Second Xbox has all the big developers making their games. Discounting two that very well could be name any time.

I would like to see some data on who buys who the console. Seeing how the most popular consoles is favored bye teenagers and adults. I would not say parents are two much influencing what there kids buy MM. Or n64 would have been the number one.  Basicly this nothing but an opinnion from one person is forum and does not characterize the general public. That knows microsoft buy name and as a dominate corporation. Everyone knows about microsoft.

the ps1 was a guaranteed success.

it had a niche that wasnt available in the gaming world

it made gaming "cool"

the SNES and genesis didnt offer that

the ps1 changed the opinion that consoles and videogames were for kids

what did the 3DO and XBOX offer?  speed and power.  revlolutionary?  i dont know

i give microsoft credit for taking a chance.  they are risking alot on this venture.

will it succeed?  well, that all depends.  it certainly wont lead the nextgen race, but it will hold its own.

even i cant deny the speed and power that it brings to the gaming world.

lol el asesino
yer right, i find these argument funny when they occur.  its like "gang up on mm day"  i somehow encourage it.  i get people upset without actually insulting anything.  i state open ended arguments that stir the crowd up

maybe i should let clyde out of the cage to state his theories

Just curious; how many people are goin\' to get banned because of this thread?

We just witnessed Ethugg get banned, now OGodly is stating his "opinion" if MM is talking out of his ass, so I\'d imagine he is treading on thin water also now..

I would also like to point out something everyone is overlooking. Everyone keeps mentioning the 3DO, but forget one huge fact. It was $700 dollars! That would be the first HUGE reason that it failed.

ethugg isnt "banned"

he lost his privledges for week for insulting me twice, thats all

in case anyone forgot, this "console debating" forum was created BY ME! to promote multi-console thinking and acceptance

and this is the payback i get

"he who casts the first stone..."

WELL PROPS!!! for creating this section!!!

The stuff i first posted was only my opinion. the prices were just rumors i heard. i just wanted to know u guys opinions. my opinion is ps2 will be the best. look at all the great games out on it all ready. u think the good games like final fantasy will come out on xbox? i dought it. ill stick with sony even if the xbox is better i dont care. i used to have n64 and it sucked so i got a ps1 3 years ago and it was so much better then n64. xbox may be better but it will never live up to Sony.

i get to see a mod at work.....
you were right about the personal insults that have been said on these forums. i have posted many a posts abou this when i see a flaming arise.

personal insults should not be tolerated, and i applaud you decision to take him out for a week.

this is NOT brown nosing.  this is what i think is right, and im sure many people will agree with me (and mm)

LOL!

Do you have any Binoca?




MM, instead of banning EThugg just ban these type of threads. Nothing comes good out of it, just a bunch idiots insulting eachother because they like a VIDEO GAME SYSTEM better than the other. And it gets rather annoying.

finnal a week of no-wrestling bashing.....

I wish Sony or Nintendo cold buy the other out so we could buy one console with all the great games.  I\'d rather have one company monopolize than buy two consoles since they both spark my interest.

tell about it

just spent almost 200$ for the GBA and some games last week

now i have to spend alot more money this oct on two new consoles.

the life is a hardcore gamer is a tough one, i tell ya

I have no problem affording any of these consoles, but even if I liked all three where would I find the time to play them????
