Why are some of you so jealous of bill gates? I mean what has he really done to you. He is a business man just like everyone else. And second xbox won\'t hurt bill one bit. Because xbox is from microsoft which is worth about 450billion dollars no silly xbox could ever hurt them.

Sure it\'s not selling like hot cakes. But what system is selling but ps2. Gamecube sure is not. I wanna see xbox be huge. It\'s a great system ppl need to just give it a freaking chance and stop being so negative it\'s only gaming.

Jeesh some ppl treat ps2 like it is something so precious. Anyone can go into a store and buy a ps2. It\'s only gaming ppl we should wanna see all the consoles succeed. But it was a given xbox would flop in japan. It\'s going to take something major for it to break into japan.

I think Ms should have offered the xbox for much less in japan only because it needs to break into the japanese market so bad. But if xbox could sell 10million units U.S. it would be ok. I don\'t know what it is the system is great. Ppl should just give it a chance. It was sad to see this happen to dreamcast but now xbox.

Okay man, I was hoping you weren\'t talking out of your ass like MOST of the other Xbox fans. Im not going to call you a zealot, because, you aren\'t, well, not like our buddy Zera, who got banned because of his lameness, and saying Xbox has no frame rate problems, blah, blah.

quddus, yer missing the point

do you see us claiming the PS2 is superior to the xbox?

no, all we do is point and laugh at xbox\'s shortcomings, and there\'s plenty of them

If MS cant pull the Xbox out of the deadly spin soon.. I see developers leaving it soon enough.

Good to know we have a fortune teller in the forums...I have much to ask you!!

And only in 5 months time!?!?!?  Since you said "im sure" there must be some truth to it...

For going up against a goliath like PS2, it was expected.

It looks here as if you are doubting your fortune telling abilities...maybe I\'ll hold off on those questions ;)

It hasn\'t failed...yet.

And I would think it a little early to be calling any shots...the GC in Japan is a good example of the wait and see approach...

See, the NGC is not your normal console breed
a game like Super Smash Brothers can litterly sell 300k plus consoles by itself..
Nintendo, unlike MS, has software that sells systems
