yeah... there's a lot more, more impressive ones, but it's been forever since I've played, can't remember the good ones.

It's sad that you memorized meaningless system specs. The only thing that matters on a console is the games, and the controller. Everything else is irrelevant.

[jewpinthethird]

Yeah, and also X-box came out a year after PS2.

GC is just sad. Seriously. GC is for little children. What games does GameCube have that are so superior to the rest?

[Cenright]

GC was created to appeal to the younger kids.
PS2 was created to appeal to "adult" audiences (and those who want "adult" privilages)
X-Box was created to appeal to family and a more general audience.

The New X-box controller is for the wimps that thought the Old big one hurt their hands. They are the ones that don't know how to be a true gamer. I have pwned everyone that has the new controller with my old controller. It is a more efficient design.

[QreepyBORIS]

I have giant hands.

Like...9-10 inch handspan.

Yeah.

[Cenright]

Yeah, if you have huge hands, it is impossible to use some of the controllers that have all the little buttons.

[Brainmaster07]

... like the GC... yeah, my handspan is like like 8.5 inches .

[Cenright]

There is a huge A, (or was it B?) but the Z and the R are squished together.

aight i gave my speech and i will up, this thread will go on 4ever and ever and people will never stop fighting about which is better, everyone likes their own console and i dont feal like hearding everywhinning about them, late

PS2 people have to resort to opinions.
X-Box people resort to actual facts.

I think X-box wins.

[Brainmaster07]

It's a fact the PS2 has more games, and more games means more variety . It's also a fact the x-box has better specs, and I'd rather have games then specs...

[Cenright]

But most of the games are in the teen and mature ratings.

There are more games, but if you have protective parents, you lose a lot of your selection.
If you don't, it depends on what kind of games you want, but X-box is the better CONSOLE.

[jewpinthethird]

I no longer have anything against X-box. X-boxes are awesome when it comes to modding. You can actually make it so you can rip games onto the hard-drive, which is a totally plus. But PS2 has more games that appeal to me. So I feel that PS2 is better for that reason. In terms of power and whatnot, X-box owns.

Nintendo, however, has nothing that I like. Besides having better graphics, and maybe a select few games that I would like to play. This is why I want to Moogy to explain as to why Nintendo GameCube is so superior.

[Anticrombie0909]

Cen, just because the Xbox has a faster processor and a better grafix chip doesn't make it better. If you're gonna go into specs then this should be about computers, because it doesn't matter for consoles, unless you're buying games for the sheer pleasure of watching fast load times (and on many games the PS2 is faster anyway).

Yes, what games are good is always an opinion, but there are games that are selected by common consensus to be deesignated 'good'. There's always the odd player out there who thinks Halo, or GTA, or Socom sucks, but they're still insanely popular, well made and bestselling games. And Xbox's only real claim in that area is Halo, while PS2 has a much larger selection and variety. So even if you don't like the GTAs and Socoms, there's plenty of other choices to appeal to you.

And PS2 is not much more adult oriented than Xbox. The reason they have so many more Teen and Mature games is because they have many more games period (I think over 900 to date).

[Cenright]

Nintendo people are loyalists. I was a loyalist until they came out with the GC, which is an inferior product. It was the teens that grew up with nintendo. They could have had it grow with them, but instead they went for the new young people and lost a lot of their old loyalists.
