And why not bring up the time frame--it has only been two months.  It is convienent for you to dismiss that reason because it completely deflates your argument.  You can\'t expect the xbox to revolutionize gaming in two months.

The PS2 had much grander promises than tha xbox and it still hasn\'t delivered and it\'s been out for almost two years.  Yet you always bring up the xbox.  I smell a fanboy.

bah, lots of talking but nothing being said to me


two months? = excuse

the xbox came out well after a year than the PS2.  plenty of time to make and develop A+ games.  what do i keep telling you guys about making excuses for yer precious 300$ box of silicone and plastic.  you might demand more, but then again, thats the generation gap.

ask Micro$oft\'s PR and ad departments about xbox changing the video game world.  ask about the "sony killer".  ask any media coverage around xbox launch time about how it is the "best thing since sliced bread".  the xbox didnt even get close to the hype created.   not even a ripple, by my standards.

and there mine sits, waiting to be played.  waiting to make my hands hurt.  waiting to make me go blind looking at 30 FPS while playinh halo.  waiting for mm to type more words that infuriate the xbox fans, oops

How long did the developers have development kits?  How long does it take to make A+ games?  How long was Xbox in development before it came to light?

You and I would have to have all these questions answered before we could get into a real debate about it.

I was hoping it would end soon too.  Agree to disagree?

i love when people get offended when i insult a small box of plastic and silicone


Don\'t you mean a BIG box of plastic and silicone?

:laughing:

Just trying to add some humor cause bad feelings seem to be brewing...

July 2002: If you had bought $1000.00 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00. Enron, $16.50 left. Worldcom, $5.00 left. If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of Budweiser beer one year ago, drank it all and turned in the cans for the 10 cent deposit, you would have $214.00. Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.

Let\'s see, who needs to shut up in here?


EVERYONE! Damn I can\'t stand wading through all the bitching.

XBox will never catch up to PS2. Ps2 sucked for the first 6 months. I have played my XBox much more than I did my PS2 when I first got it. After this Summer IMO, PS2 won\'t be able to touch XBox in graphics, games, or features. I don\'t see anything coming out for PS2 in the next 6 months that looks good, while XBox has everything a Sega fan, and more importantly gamer could want. All I have to say is Shenmue. Unfortunately for GC, it will get left in the dust of PS2 and Xbox. I don\'t see the little tyke crawling anywhere fast.


Everyone shut up. mm is just ****ing around with you.

Well that\'s what trolls do--they stir up crap for no good reason arguing inane points and generally pissing people off.

So much for being a Virtua Fighter fan, eh?  Has your love for the Xbox blinded you of the good games on the PS2?  It seems that way.
