Whose sure its coming out im not sure.It came on ps2 but it won't come to xbox whose sure it's going, For example Halo 2 came to xbox, Example 2: Gta San Andreas, Shourly it won't come want to play gta games, Buy the double pack, Driv3r or True Crime: Streets of LA. There you go now choose old titles because it won't come to xbox, Can you take it for one year and seven months, Who can take it only fools can wait for a half and a year.

You still don't get why I kicked up a fuss. I gave my opinion, got some fair responses, then some prat decides to make fun of me. I am happy to hear peoples views if they are different to mine but if people are telling me that my views are wrong, then I will say the same thing back. And how the hell am I supposed to know that you don't own an XBOX you retard.

Multi-format games are coded to work on the lowest powered machine, because it guarantees that if it can run smoothly on that one, it will run on the others. Obviously things have to be altered and re-coded because of the differences in the hardware, but this is basically the reason.

Do you think that when developers make a multi-format game, they want to be sat round making what is essentially 3 completely different games?

Well then your ignorance is clear. The only reason that you don't like the Xbox seems to be because you didn't buy one yourself so you're kicking up a tantrum trying to justify your choice. It's pathetic - you have inadequate knowledge of the Xbox and its games to insult people who bought one.

Except better games and decent online play, no it has nothing more to offer.

I'm well aware of the fact that the XBOX is technically more powerful than the PS2. It seems to me that all this extra power is wasted because there is very little difference in performance between the machines. If it is "so" much better then why are the same games released for both machines, the visuals look almost identical and they play the same. Surely if the XBOX was really that much better it would take the games to the next level.

It really is hugely obvious that the xbox is loads better than the ps2. To me anyway. Most new xbox only games have beautiful graphics and superb online play. Although ps2 has online play, it's meant to be very laggy. A friend told me that the only game worth bothering with is Socom 2. As for the ps2's position in the market. The only reason it has such a fanbase is that little nobs tell all their mates that 'da ps2 iz wikid, you don't want da xbox!1!' That really annoys me. People saying that the xbox sucks, when they haven't played it, alot of small minded people judge it on its size. So what though? The xbox is bigger as it holds more graphical power. Plus it's processor irons out all those bugs which feature in about every ps2 game available. By the way I have owned a ps2, so I'm not just supposing, like alot of ps2 owning idiots.
Also the ps2 is only still going because sony con people into believing that the games on their console are actually good. Medal of honor rising sun scored about 9.9 compared to just 5.6 or so on xbox. The official magazine just lies so that people go and buy the game. Have you seen all those labels on ps2 games. They've given everything from burnout 3, to pop 2 10/10. These game may be good, but they 'aint perfect now are they?
