>"Like I said, it takes a killer app or two. I for one don\'t know all of MS\'s plans and I highly doubt you have the inside story either..."

No, I just follow the industry incredibly close
partially beacuse I own sony stock and like to invest in gaming companies that seem like a good plan

Firstly, I\'ll say it again, we do not know the sell through of the xbox despite what chrono says.

Secondly the PS2 was released for the holiday season and xbox was released now.  You can\'t compare those numbers.

Chrono or 00seven, I don\'t know who is the bigger PS2 fanboy.

How hilarius...look at the first weekend of the launch in Japan of each console...

Microsoft XBox - 123,334
Nintendo GameCube - 175,000
Sony PlayStation 2 - 680,000 units
Sega Dreamcast - 120,000 units
Sega Saturn - 107,000 units
Sony PlayStation - 101,000 units

XBox beats PSX :D ...isn\'t it a good presage?

(don\'t flame me,I\'m joking:p )

If this turns out to be true, we can learn two things from this. One, when Sega says a game is exclusive, it almost always isn\'t. And number two, its doubtful MS will ever make a profit on the XBox if it seemingly has to pay for every big game to come to its system (I assume VF 4.1 is the same way since Sony was so sure it was exclusive before).

It was said from the start that it was exclusive for a period of time...

You have to spend money to make money...MS is still establishing itself, they\'ll do what they have to...

According to the numbers Bizio has, it\'s no that bad off for a system brand new to the market.

ho ho, Bobbo is here  :)

a few things to mention here.. first off, this is still just a rumour

Damn pstwo,I was planning to get the PS2 version...now I have to wait...


uhh.. what for?  its still just a rumour

pstwo:

uhh.. did you even read your own article?  its a new updated version being made for arcades and then onto XBox (only rumoured though)  not a PS2 port.. silly

Quote
Ginko:
Yah, being that the system is only 6 days old has nothing to do with it... I mean what\'s MS\'s excuse? PS2 had alot of quality 3rd party games in it\'s first week. Don\'t you remember Ridge Racer X, and Fantavision...classics. Oh, and then Devil May Cry a whole year later. Sony had those games just lined up one after another...


Fantavision was first party, silly  :p

and the situation is a little different, obviously

Quote
Ginko:
The PS2 didn\'t have much for a long time. It survived and thrived...


yah, like i said, its a different situation, XBox is a first time console.. its an american console, and its competing againts PS2 which is easily cominating the market.  PS2 was competing against.. what?  Dreamcast?  Nintendo64?  There is more demand for PS2 on name alone, people had to wait, and because they did, well they are happy.  With the XBox, people dont have to wait, theres a nice little PS2 sitting in their corners with Virtua Fighter 4 to interest them instead of.. uhh.. DoA3  :)

Ginko:
I think you\'re writing it off to soon...MS has almost as many 3rd party developers making games as Sony and MS has alot of exclusives from 1st and 2nd party developers we don\'t even know about yet (the number is around 80 to be released between now and next March just from 1st and 2nd party!).


care to compare the list of dev\'s against Sony\'s 700+?  :D  

and lets all hope for MS\'s sake that those first party games are good, but chances are they wont quite be a god enough substitute for missing out on games such as Final Fantasy

They have 700+ developers?!?  Where are all the games??  The release list for this year is somewhat underwhelming...

Xbox has around 300 is what I read...

It\'s been different every generation...there is still 3 years left in this one, possibly 4.  Anything can happen...

Chrono, you know what, I really don\'t care how well it is selling.

You are in no positin to call anyone pathetic.  Look at you, is it your mission in life to talk trash about the xbox?  All you do is post negative things about it.  You sir are the pathetic one.  Why does it matter to you?  Really?  What drives you to post this crap day after day?

I can\'t imagine having the time or energy to invest in trying to convince people that the xbox is a bad system that is doomed for failure.  Again I ask why you care?

Do you also go to battery boards and talk trash about energizer?  Is your mind so small and shallow that you cannot live in a world with both Pepsi and Coke?

I think before you start calling anyone pathetic you should first take a long close look at yourself and your little life.  Is your it so void of incident that you can afford to give the xbox this kind of attention?  I can\'t imagine what it is like to have a mind like yours.

Ps2 peak now? :laughing: I\'m not trying to diss you or anything but its plain as day that you dont like anything except xbox. Are you biased? Im not so sure but im glad that this statement is only an opinion. Why do you think all these people praise their ps2\'s? Because its a great system and people are still buying it. Why? because the games are going to be good. I know i have a lot to look forward too. Even if xbox happens to surpass ps2, that doesnt mean that it wont be a strong competitor. If xbox had such a stellar line up then there would be more sales. Back to the subject: I\'m kinda pissed that this version may come out for xbox because of the fact that i love sega games and xbox gets all their good titles. At least give ps2 some edge. .   The fate of the system is also in the fate of the developers
