By far playstation 2 takes the gold for best game console. Even my friend who got X-box when it first came out, now says he would rather have had playstation 2.

X-box has one quality game.

X-box has one quality game.

First of all, not every person will agree on the quality of the games. For example, I think there are at least 5 X-Box games that are very good. Someone else may not like any of them.

Second, X-Box has not been out nearly as long as the PS2. There's a long list of games coming out in the next couple months, including some very promising titles such as James Bond, Wreckless and... well, I've already listed them in this thread.

Third, X-Box bests the PS2 in every field in respect to hardware. It is faster, more powerful and can store anything from music to game patches on it's hard drive. The graphics are both more intense and more detailed, and the framerate leaves nothing to be desired. The controllers (IMO) are way better, they aren't too big at all, in fact I've been waiting for a controller like this since I bought my first NES.

With the introduction of online gameplay this spring, IMO X-Box easily bests the PS2 and GC. Of course, I'd still rather play on a PC =)

the systems

OKAY I THINK I SPEAK FOR MOST PPL WHEN I SAY THIS.....


PS2= THE BEST ONE
yes, sadly PS2 is the dominating system ONLY because it has been out for a year more than the others.

GC= RUNNER UP
gamecube is trailing behind PS2 but when sony stops making games 4 PS2 and start focusing on PS3 gamecube WILL dominate... MUYAMOTO!!!

Xbox= CRAP
that pretty much explains it.

 

A PC is the best gaming machine out there, if you have the luck to get your hands on a good one. You can also store music on it's hard drive and install patches

The PC, if you're interested, has a HUGE backcatalogue, which no console can top. Play Shadow President on yar PS One or 2...

You'll say who wants to play old crap anyway? There are some real gems out there, I do not agree with you

The big pro for a console is that the games are dedicated to that one machine. It gets the max out of a 733 cpu and that type of gpu. This is something that pc games sometimes lack. If it is written for a Geforce 3 with few options to tune down, your Geforce 2 which was top of the line a year ago, will not cut it.

On the consoles: I heard a lot of bad things about xbox. Overheating and even breaking down. I read on Morrowind forums that it will not let you play when the character is above level 8, that it gives dirty disc messages for clean discs, that you have to flush the cash if it keeps crashing etc etc... I wouldn't buy one until I knew for certain what is going on.

The ps2 has te most games, but I feel like Sony cheated on us. I have an old Edge magazine, which had an interview with a Sony guy explaining us the greatness of ps2. He said "if you're gonna use it as a classic machine and put engine in memory A and textures in memory B, you won't see a big performance leap. It will do alright, but not fantastic. But if you use it the way it is designed, and let it do lots of random stuff and use the thread programming (?) it will revolutionise".

Either noone understood what he was talking about, or all programmers use it with the A and B model, cause there was never a huge leap. This story made me non interested in the console.

The Gamecube looks cool. Nintendo followed their own way, not throwing gigahertzes at ya, but making a platform which they needed for the games they want to bring. I respect their line of thought. Sony was already working on ps3 when ps2 came out. That is no dedication.

I also feel like they are going past kid's games this time. More adult games.

So, if you're willing to invest a LOT:

pc>gamecube>ps2>xbox
or pc>ps2>gamecube>xbox

If you're really console orientated or do not wish to invest a lot of your money:

put the pc behind the xbox.

I COULD NOT AGREE WITH U MORE A4EVER


right there u summed up EXACTLY what i thought about the consoles.

 

Gamecube is for babies. Heck, how old are you to be still playing Mario? 3 years old? Cmon, grow up.

Xbox is the product of Microsoft, therefore it is the product of ruthless marketing and cruelty and immorality to other budding companies. Heck, Microsoft even has the monopoly on operating systems. The only user freiendly (the one that does not need comp expertise, the majorty of comp users are stupid people who do not know what a RAM or ROM is, so you must cater to them to win the market) one is fucking windows!! I dream of the day when Microsoft will be splintered into tiny smithereens, maybe 200 different companies.

 

That is just not true. There are enough mature games out there.

Heil to the new age of incompatibility and driver issues.

 

Okay THAT is the stupidest thing to say. DO YOU have Gamecube? Are you saying Gamecube has Only ONE GAME AND ONE GAME ONLY?? Are you saying you need BLOOD AND GUTS to make a game interesting?Does a game HAVE to be Mature to be fun?
So you think MARIO is for BABIES. GAMECUBE ITSELF is for babies.

Yes, that is one mans opinion but I would like to hear yours AFETR you get gamecube and played all the games. I hardly think your opinion will be the same.

 

well some one game that is truely the best and i do not know what system, it is for is jimmy neutron yeah!! u wont believe it but i swear to GOD that it is better then RE which is based on fighting zombies which can get a little boring but now jimmy neutron is a instant classic because u have a freakin lazer and u bal;st away aliens that stole your parents and u r doing good for the world!!!!!

First off, to be realistic, GameCube is NOT for babies. Perhaps it is aimed more at children, but nintendo tries to make an 'all ages' system more than anything.

Secondly, what nintendo does the best is innovation, something completely lacking from PS2 crap. Nobody makes games like nintendo. Period.

 

First off, james bond just sucks. screw the x-box. No quality games avalible on x-box. I think the only one I saw was a verion of Resident evil, but that may have been for GC.

And let me set the record straight. There is no fricken comparison when you talk about the PS controlers. x-boxes controllers arre not bad but still not nearly as good as PS. They are litterally perfect.

Well if you like fun enjoyable games then its the Gamecube.

If you like being dazzled by bright graphics for 20 minutes its the xbox

If you HAVE to play gt3, or gta3, or ffX, maybe a few others (not many though) then get the ps2.

Its all about opinion, and its all about the games. IMO people who buy Xbox aren't usually really gamers, just causual gamers who like pretty graphics. same goes for a big chunk of the ps2 crowd.

gc >> ps2 >> xbox
