I would definitely say PS2. It has way more (and better) games.

I would say that PS2 has the GTA games on it, but now that they are on the Xbox...

Fourtunately, I heard somewhere that all future GTA games will come out only for the PS2 and stay on the PS2.

GTA on X-Box? thats new to me. xbox has a lot of games which arent on ps2 and vice-versa but i think the x-box may have the upper hand with a lot of new hardware still to be brought out. And it is definetly better in the multiplayer gist of things

The only connection between Xbox and Bill Gates is he owns Microsoft. He's not on the Xbox project trying to scam money away from people with his curly black mustache, dark cape and tophat.

Xbox >>>>>>>>>>>PS2
Games such as PGR2, Top Spin, Shenmue 2, Halo, JSRF, Panzer Dragoon Orta, Midtown Madness 3, Rainbow Six 3, Star Wars: KOTOR... to name but a few...
Not to mention the strong line-up of AAA games still to come next year! Next year is definately the last for PS2, look at what it's got next year: GT4.... and... er... exactly.

Get an Xbox, especialy if you have broadband, Xbox Live just shows how much better games can be when playing many people from around the world... :D

Not everyone can afford both. I couldn't afford either, so I got a GameCube.

I bought the gamecube because it was the cheapest and it had the most games on it that I wanted to play, so don't jump all over me about how it's too kiddy. I like it just fine, so fuck you. If you like PS2 or XBOX, that's fine by me.

Xbox, one, better graphics, two, better games, three, fasterloading times, and four, more features, not to mention all the Xbox Live games. Xbox easily wins.

Alright heres how it goes....

X-box:

You can play with up to 16 different other x-box consoles.

Has an actual hard-drive in it so you don't have to waste money on stupid memory cards.

You can save your own music into the hard-drive so then on some games that support user music you can listen to it during your game.

4 controllers.

Way better graphics.

Way better games.

And alot of other stuff.

Playstation:

I would've never gotten one if I knew that GTA was coming out for x-box.

And the whole system is pure crap compared to the great console X-BOX!

The GTA and Vice City release on the Box happened at the same time as the double release on PS2 but the Box got a graphical update for both games and I think they even added extra missions.

Nein.

The PS2 version of the GTA compilation is just a compilation. There is no improvement at all to the game.

The X-Box version of GTA 3 and Vice (Which I bought yesterday to replace my PS2 versions) Has a graphical update, lets you play your downloaded music on the radio and loads a WHOLE lot faster. Nothing that makes the tightwad game buyer jealous for getting the PS2 version.

That's what he said. "Both games" means both GTA 3 and Vice City.

Allow me to repeat myself:

But I'm a graphics whore so I still enjoy GTA X-Box.

w00t!

I have gamecube and my two brothers have playstation 2 and xbox. Only one is mine but I still get to play all three if I want.

We still have all our old stuff too. A Sega Genesis, which nobody plays, and an old Nintendo, which barely ever works anymore, are still at my dad's house. At my house, we have the three consoles (gcn, ps2, xbox), and also a Playstation, Nintendo 64, Sega Dreamcast, Super Nintendo... man, too many games, not enough time.

Amen to that. I'm considering just selling off my old systems to make a little extra cash, but I know that if I do, I'll get a crazy craving to play them right after. Happened when I traded my Contra 3 for my step brother's Street Fighter 2. Ended up buying another one because my step brother wouldn't/couldn't give the original back.

Times like this I’m happy that playing games is my job. No way I could get all my gaming in if it was just a hobby I had to find time for around work.

It's hard to choose between the 2 consoles, because they're both black <3 :-(

This topic has been repeated far too many times already. These are the main points:

1) XBox has fewer games and fewer quality games. PS2 has more games and generally a low quality, but still lots of great games.

2) Broadband has been fudged up by both companies.

3) Good original games for XBox -

Halo
Dead or Alive 3
Project Gotham

4) Good orignal games for PS2 -

Jak 2
Ico
Zone of the Enders 2

5) Good games for both -

Sonic Heroes
Timesplitters 2
GTA Box Set

Depends on what you want. Better potential, go for XBox. More choice, go for PS2.
