PS2 kicks ass and will be around a lot longer than the X-Box, which I've read it already seeing diminishing sales.

Whatever, people that have a fetish with Microsoft are the people that buy the X-Box.
Its expensive, the games suck, it's big and bulky...like the controller weighs more than grande ham sandwitch, I only see fat, boring, middle aged, proffesional men buying them.

Let me refrase...If you're a fat, boring, middle aged proffesional man, go buy it.

Ok you are gonna get the PS2 bcs it has Gran Turismo 3, and Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit 2. Which have the best cars and controls. What othere game will you find ferraris lambos and porsches sharing the same bill? Sega GT can go suck a lemon :finger:

Why would you want a real car, driving is boring as hell..gas, brake, honk! gas, brake, honk! gas, brake, honk! gas, brake, honk! all day long! Driving sucks, you have these road hogs in SUVs cutting you off, the stupid cops are everywhere giving tickets, and the potholes do a number on yer wallet. I take the train to get to work, I read a book or the NY Times, chat with someone you never sat next to, have breakfast...driving sucks!

that's why living in the country kicks ass. barely any stop-lights, barely any cops (i still obey the law, don't worry), and alot of wide open, twisty roads. driving rules out here.

XBox is a lousy excuse for a console- it is just a whole lot of PC parts some asswipe 45 year old executive found lying around the office and thought cool! :rolleyes:


There is crappy games and the only good games are already on PS2- and Halo is not cool- Half Life 0wnz it- and 1st Person shooters are for the PC.


PS2 is far better

Xbox= Newer, hence a little faster.

PS2= Sony, hence the code is free to all, and anyone can make a game for it. They also have an established history of making consol games.



Iv played on both, and I have friends that own both, quite simply the X-Box is large ugly and has a very limited and poor game selection. The only advantage I can see it having over the PS2 is its slightly faster processor.


If you really like driving games then get a PS2, there is nothing that comes close to beating the GT series, Sega GT dosnt even come close, in fact I find it frustrating to play.

If you want pretty games that are easy to play lack imagination and orginalty but look good graphicly, and you have a shelf strong enough to surport the weight of the X-box then its the better choice.
