by the time xbox comes PS2 will:

1)have built-in dvd playback
2)HUGE HUGE library of games

Yes you are quite right there.The libary will be huge and full of great games by the time ****-box comes out.

Quote
3)cost 200$

I doubt that.Do you really expect Sony to drop the price 100$?Sure,the\'ll want to price compeditively to compete with GameCube and X-Box but a 100$ price drop?No way.A 50 $ drop would be most likely,I wouldn\'t be surprised if they dropped to 220,but definately not 200$.The only way they would was if NGC\'s price would be 150.

4)2nd gen graphics(MGS2)
I\'ll bet you  money that first-generation X-Box graphics will be superior to 2nd generation PS2 graphics.Nothing to be ashamed of,PS2 will have the quiality.:D

Quote
don\'t forget about mario either....

Yep.Can\'t forget about NGC.

Quote
xbox will be IMO DOA in japan and europe

Europe-they got a slight chance.

Japan-god the Japanese public is looking forward to GameCube more than X-Box there...(rescent Japanese poll)

Well, it is a mistake, but it won\'t break the system. Anyone who buys a game console to play movies has a few screws loose. The only ppl who are inpressed by a system that can play dvds are 1-kids who can\'t buy their own dvd player, or 2-poor ppl.
I, as anyone who really cared about dvd\'s, bought a player over a year ago. PS2 and I would assume XB are both inadequite for dvd\'s unless you have a **** tv. I\'m with Nplayer-2 (sort of). NGC (and imo, DC) will have the best games.

wow, your wrong again!
(no surprise there)

I know 5 people that are planning to buy a ps2. Why? Beacuse they kill 2 birds with one stone. Parents think the DVD is a good deal, plus they get an awsome video game console and PSX for only 299. My friends dad who has never bought anything but nintendo is buying a PS2 this generation beacuse of the DVD, and he is by no means poor. He is the vice president of a local bank.
Many people did not even know what a DVD player was till the ps2 came out, another friend managed to get a ps2 and did not even know what the DVD player thing on it was!
Your whole logic is VERY VERY flawed!

Many people didn\'t know what a dvd player was? So they wanted a PS2 for it? Yea, my thinking is flawed....riiiiiight. :D Sorry, I don\'t care if your friends dad is a moron or not. I think you just like fighting with me.

Its not that big of a deal. By the time it is released DVD players will be cheaper and even more in households. There wasn\'t a huge compelling reason for MS to do it. It lowers the price without it anyways.

 It does come with a HD. Unlike the PS2. Its a trade off. Big deal.

Ok, you totally lost me. Biased? Biased towards what? I didn\'t diss any console, or support any console in my argument, except to say NGC and DC will have better games. WTF are you talking about????? My god? I\'m an atheist, so what god are you talking about? What am I defending??? What are you talking about!!??????? No single post has confused me more than this one. I think your the one with a screw loose.

After our last argument I should not have to call you a microsoft fanboy, but since your so blind and bias I guess I have too!

Are you sure
It did have DVD too
The X-Box changes too much to take it serously

1-I dismissed both PS2 and XB\'s ability to play dvd\'s. How does that make me a MS fanboy??? I didn\'t say a single pro-MS thing.

2-You didn\'t explain a single thing you said....I guess you didn\'t understand it either...

3-Your friends dad is obviously a moron. And I\'m much older than you \'kid\'.

4-If you want to argue, the hdd/broadband add-on for PS2 will cost much more than a DVD adapter. Hmmmmm...which is a better value.....a game system that plays dvds for $300 or a non dvd playing system with a hdd and modem. Yea, hard choice. You keep claiming i\'m biased, but your arguments make no sense at all. I\'m sure you think you\'won\' this argument (and the last one). I know you didn\'t. What was that? A school bell little kid! Skip along to school junior, don\'t be late!

1- Did you go to college, it sure seems like you did not
2- The HDD will be 99 dollars or less I guarentee you
3- I\'m one of the smartest kids in my school, taking college classes, wining the history fair for my school and going to the state history fair competition, and have a 4.0 average on route to become a valavictorian... I may be a kid, but i\'ve accomplised alot more then you have i\'m sure!
4- Every X-Box post you hide your image and try to defend it the best you can without coming out and saying it. By saying the DVD function will not sell consoles is defending the x-box I SHOULD NOT have to tell you this!

I must say I agree with Chrono because I saw the thread where EthuGG got all pissed off when we said that MS windows was a **** OS that was released with over 2000 known bugs and MS didn\'t give a **** about them and released the OS anways, so what makes you think they won\'t do that with MS XBOX, I have a piont don\'t I, well it\'s your money which makes it your choice, have fun with the Glitch-Box

Chrono-look me up on icq, i\'m the only EThugg. We can argue off the board since we seem to go on and on. As for how smart you are in your high school....what did that have to do with anything? You STILL have not explained what you meant in the other post. The prices of add-ons are speculation, but common sense would dictate that the dvd add-on would be considerably less than a hdd/modem.
Why would you assume I didn\'t go to college, or accomplished anything? You don\'t know me. Why are you starting personal attacks? I hide nothing about my \'image\'. I state my opinions with no concern about what you might think.

@iReS-Agree with what? I\'m stating my opinions, and everyone ****s on me for it. He was there, he knows what I posted.

mm-I\'m glad you promote personal attacks, and people not making sense (ie: the post in this thread where Chrono made no sense, talking jibberish about \'my god\'.). It\'s good to see you aren\'t a slave to reason! Keep up the good fight against common sense when defending your friends.

I\'m done. Ppl aren\'t listening to logic here, and the flaming is about to break out, so I\'m not going to read any further responses in this thread. If any intelligent ppl want to discuse the topic, you can look me up on icq too.
