A lot of x-box fans want GTA3, MGS2, FF, GT and other PS2 games. Why the hell doesn´t they get a PS2 instead? It´s cheaper and have better games.
I don´t want any x-box ports to the PS2.
Here in Sweden people buy the console with best games (the DC have sold tons here) and it is strange IMO to buy a console and then want an other consoles games.

Well,PS2 has a lot of games,sure...it\'s a 2 years old console...and right now it\'s the best console as regards quantity and variety of games...

But personally I won\'t buy MGS2 and VF4 for the PS2,I\'ll wait for the XBox versions...and I\'ve heard rumor about MGS3 for the XBox(don\'t flame me:p )

I\'ll get the exclusive titles for PS2,and the enhanced versions of the XBox plus the exclusive for the X...

Uh, would you like to pay another $300 after spending it on a "lesser" (I use the term loosely) system?  I\'m sure they\'re gonna be happy with the box in a while, but don\'t we all want to have the same games on every system?

I want Super Smash Brothers, but that\'s about it from the cube, not worth buying the cube. . .  oh well.

My point is, instead of charting sales figures, go play some games. It\'s a lot more fun!

Who says we\'re not having fun?  Some of us like debating/figure hunting.

I own both systems and enjoy them mostly for their exclusives.

There are a  minimal amount of ports worth buying the Xbox for...why would they buy the system now to enjoy what may come out later or not at all?

Xbox has so much more going for it besides ports, surely you know this...

You\'ll be sorry to hear that MGSX is not MGS2.. Its either a updated version of MGS1 or a mixed version of MGS1 and 2.
2 is exclusive to PS2.

Oh and VF4 wont be coming to Xbox. SoA said so :)

Plus MGS3 is rumoured (good rumours) to be in development for PS2.

They also said they\'ll keep everyone updated if a version is planned...leads me to believe it\'s not out of the question.

VF4 is not coming to Xbox.
You can wait, sure. But you may wait in vain.

VF4 is PS2 exclusive. Just like Shenmue, JSRF, GT2k2 is for Xbox.
