Xbox, or PS2, so you won't have two Xboxes when Xbox 2 comes out. (It's been rumored it will.) But I suggest Xbox.

anyway, xbox owns PS2, it's more of a future generation consle. Plus, you can store 50,000+ blocks of memory on the hard drive. And, you can store any music on it. Just pop in the CD, select copy, its on your hard drive. Then, you can copy it from your HD to a memory card... anyways, xbox is way better.

none, wait for xbox 2 or ps 3 to come out, that is your best investment

atm xbox has the best software lifespan and hardware, the games are good especially halo 2!

oh wow that is sooo cool. well not at all actually.
the hard disk is allright 'cause you don't need memorycards, but if i'm short on memory i just get a new card, no problem. but its nice, i admit that.
and why the **** would i want to store my music on my gaming console?

Is there still some kind of memory card option for x-box? Cause I actually prefer that because when I visit friends houses, fly to my boyfriends' place, etc. all I have to do is pack a little card and have all my saves with me.

yes, the xbox also uses memorycards that you stick in the controller, like the N64 did. so you can easily copy your file(s) to a memocard and take that to your mates.

There is a built in option and memory cards, if you use the built in, you can just upload the memory into the card.

That's a tough choice. I have neither, but want both. :/ PS 2 maybe?

:yes:

And more proof!

Halo and Fable are the two best selling and best all around X-Box games, But GTA and Final Fantasy out sell them everytime. :luna:

Go GTA and FF :w00t:

Are you kidding me? Halo2 outsold GTA by far, it outsold any game by far. Over 5 Million Halo 2 games were sold worldwide. Tell me, nothing beats that.

Xbox has my vote. First XSLASH what do you think any console is? Hmm, a computer maybe. And if graphics are better using a computer core then why go anywhere else? Xbox has anything beat in graphics. PS2 can't compete in that. Not only that but Xbox has the easiest online setup. All I did was put an ethernet cable in the back of my Xbox and I was ready to go online. With PS2 you need a hard drive with some games then you have to pay for certain games and not others. Not to mention only a handful of PS2 games have online capabilities. Xbox has great games online. People only point out like two games for Xbox if you look there is great games. I have PGR2, NASCAR 2005 (Big NASCAR fan), Halo 2, Splinter Cell:Pandora Tomorrow (My favorite game type and game).

Xbox has PS2 beat in everything. And on top of that when Xbox 2 comes out in this fall the graphics are so real it's like being on the field of the football field or in the car of the Porsche 911. The graphics are so real you would think Donovan McNabb was actual acting in the game. Look out for Xbox 2 to blow everyone out of the water.

yes. the xbox is more powerfull than the PS2. and yes, no doubt with that, the PS2 online is crappy, xbox live is way more easy to connect and use, though i have no credit card :unsure: .

and yeah, i also thought halo 2 outsold GTA SA by far, dunno about FFX though. BUT if you look at, like, the top 10 best selling PS2 and XBOX games, i think the PS2 has way more sales then.
but, why should we care? i don't care if FFX sells more than Halo 2 or otherwise, i know i like FFX and don't like Halo 2, so i buy FFX.
sure it's nice for the developer if the game sells more, but why should i care?

xbox is nothing for me though, know why? 'cause there's only a very few games i REALLY like :/ .

but i keep saying it, get the console with the most games YOU like. discussing someone's opinion(unless foolish covered) is pointless.

and if you go discuss the power of a console, xbox is the best. period

You are saying that nothing has sold more, correct? If that be the case, you are wrong. Ever hear of Super Mario 64? It sold over 9 million copies. Last time I checked, 9 million> 5 million.

There are only a few games on Xbox that I REALLY like,too.. BUT, there are NO games on PS2 that I like(or at least, not any you can't get ono the Xbox). So, Xbox wins for me, but maybe there are more games that you would like on the PS2. Though, I'd never get a PS2 because I hate Sony. I much prefer Microsoft to Sony. Of course, I prefer Nintendo to Microsoft, but thats beside the point. :P

and mario 64 aint even the best sold title ever ;) . btw, think of those sales man, if YOU would have made that game.... :rofl: .

as for the rest, yes, those are our opinions and they are clearly different :) .

i "hate" microsoft most actually, but that's because of the crap they bring with the PC's :no: .

BUT if the xbox would suddenly get a load of games i like(and I get a load of money i also like) then i'd defenitly buy a xbox, no matter how much i hate microsoft
