x-box didnt live up to hype, PS2 still the best

Well after all the hype on how much better x-box was supposed to be ,and how much more powerful and all that bull chit,  Ive seen it ,and played it and it aint got nothin on PS2.  No better graphics or anything else. x-box beats dreamcast but thats about it. It definately aint  better than PS2. And thats a fact!

Hype? There is hype for the X-Box? when did this happen?

All I remember is a TRAINLOAD of hype for PS2, with nothing more than a slap on the wrist, so to speak, of goodness. PS2 SUCKED ASS (you can quote me on that) when it first came out,and has only became worthwhile in my mind last month. Give XBox some time before you judge it, hypocrite. X-Box games already look as good or better than PS2, now let the gameplay catch up.

Early next year and late this year we will see:

Raw is War (for you wrestling fans)
Soul Calibur 2
Project Ego
Jet Set Radio Future
GUNVALKYRIE
Max Payne
Halo

etc,etc,etc.

Try playing what they offer before making any judgements. I don\'t remember ANY PS2 games getting a 9.7 at launch like Halo got from Gamespot, or a 9.4 like DOA3 got from IGN. Madden got in the 9\'s, etc.


Wait, hold on, I remember you, why did I just type all that? It will fall on deaf ears, no doubt.

I hate to break it to ya, but your whole graphics rant is an opinion, not a fact

heh heh.... That confirms it.... I\'m sick of Xbox.... GameCube it is!

Yeah I agree with koolkev, I played Xbox and Gamecube earlyer today(when I was getting Splashdown..Awesome) the xbox was a little disappointing, I was hoping for mind-blowing graphics. Munch for instance had fog and bland textures, compared to Jak and Daxter it just doesn\'t compare graphically and from what I\'ve read it doesn\'t compare gameplay wise either.

Nfl Fever was ok the gameplay was good, not as good as NFL2K2 though. HALO was good the graphics are good, I was expecting to be blown away because of all the hype surrounding the games looks and I was a little impressed by some textures. To bad FPS aren\'t my kind of games.

Gamecube totally disappointed me. What was all that about GC having the best texture abilitys Luigi\'s Mansion\'s sucked. the lighting was good, not as good as Silent Hill 2 though. Gameplay was fun at first but I soon became tired of the whole thing. Rouge leader on the other hand looked great amazing lighting the one and only game so far that really interested me was SW:RL

I\'m may sound biased toward GC and Xbox, but I\'m not. It\'s just that they can\'t compare with PS2 line-up right now . Hopefully they will both be getting great games next year, then all gamers will have a great exciting time with there console of choice.

ajoh432, don\'t base your opinion of the Xbox on Koolkev\'s obviously biased comments.  Go play it for yourself and then make the decision.

Hehe..

SSX got a 9.3 though.. Still a very good game

X-Box had hype for a Year, it didn\'t live up to it... PS2 is good, yadda yadda.

Chill out.  Posting posts like that will do nothing but start a flame war and get you banned.  Try debating instead of arguing.

Hey!  No need for name calling koolkev! AlteredBeast was just saying he hadn\'t seen much hype surround the Xbox, that\'s all. He has his own opinion and you have yours. You can\'t get mad over a little opinion, can you?

HEY, IWAS STATING MY DISAPPOINTMENT OF THE XBOX  AFTER PLAYING IT AT GAMESTOP.COM ,IM NOT SAYING IT AINT NO GOOD,IM SAYING IT DONT LIVE UP TO THE HYPE OF BLOWING ALL OTHER CONSOLES AWAY IN GRAPHICS AS IT WAS BEING PORTRAYED TO DO,LIKE I SAID I THINK PS2 GRAPHICS ARE JUST AS GOOD, IF NOT BETTER THAN XBOX. I WAS EXPECTING MIND BLOWING GRAPHICS FROM XBOX AND I WAS NOT IMPRESSED,I WAS ACTUALLY DISSAPOINTED! PS2 IS BETTER!

Ya... I should edit that... I\'m getting second thoughts...

Nothing on my PS2 looks nearly as good (graphically) as Halo or DOA3.

Your right it doesn\'t blow away PS2 and GC graphically. In some cases Xbox looks better than PS2 and GC and other time PS2 may llok better aswell as the the GC being better than both. It all depends on the developers and there know how. Right now PS2 is better IMO.

What games do you have for PS2?  GT3 alone looks as good if not better in some cases than Halo and visa versa.

U ALL KEEP COMPARING IT WITH GAMES THAT PS2 DONT HAVE. TRY COMPARING GAMES THAT BOTH HAVE(LIKE I DID) SUCH AS EASPORTS MADDEN 2002. SPORTS GAMES ARE THE BEST GAMES ANYWAY . MADDEN 2002 ON PS2 IS THE SAME OR MABE EVEN BETTER THAN ON XBOX!  AND BY THE WAY ITS THE BEST GAME EVER ! PERIOD!
