It\'s embarrassing to think just how PS2 owners were in  desperate need of games back in the day when  
"Summoner" is listed as one of PS2 early stellar titles.

I agree. People who think that the Xbox is in a "slump" simply don\'t want to like the Xbox IMO.

I don\'t feel sorry for anyone as long as they\'re happy with their own choices.

Then I visit TeamXBox *sob*

Its not really about feeling bad for x box owners because it has no games but about it could suffer the same fate as Dreamcast.

This is so stupid. Feel sorry for Xbox owners? Give me a break man.... go stick your **** in a pillow... How you weren\'t trying to intend this to be a "bashing" thread baffles me.

i never bashed the xbox, nor did i say anything bad about it.  all i am saying is that for a console system that is only 6 months old to lose $100 of its value is ridiculous, thats all.
if other members turn this thread into a bashing thread, then thats not my fault, and if thats the case, close the thread, it doesn\'t matter to me.

Here\'s reality: 99% of X-box owners could careless that the price dropped, they have their system, most are enjoying it, they don\'t care about business they care about gaming.

true, but as a ps2 owner, i was pissed when i heard that the ps2 dropped in price, since i was expecting it to drop later this year or so.  i was planing on getting rid of the system, but if i did, i wouldn\'t get as much as i would have a month ago.  my cousin owns an xbox, and like me, doesn\'t play it much, so he wanted to get rid of it to, but is not, since its not worth the loss.
gaming wise, your right, xbox owners can care less as long as the games keep coming, but resale wise, its a piss of a deal for them.

Well thats the risk you take when you purchase a console. I have never with any console thought about taking it back. You have to do a bit of research before you start spending the dough I guess.

Well i didn\'t

becuase i got my PS2 shortly after the UK launch i went near enough a FULL YEAR befire a price drop happend

unlike The X box owning UK people who have not only faced a price drop in the opening weeks

and are going to face another one ,to bring it down a further £50



:laughing: :laughing:

Way to got M$$$$ just Devalue your Console at such an early stage and there by crippleing your Price war strategy and giving a HUGE dent into Pupblic conficence


why didn\'t they realise that

PANIC price drops  = killing of in pupblic confidence in your product.

Chances of me getting a X box even if they drop the price to £150 or £100 ?

ZERO !
