You're not the first PS2 fanboy to come in here and get all hissy and bitchy when everyone else doesn't agree with you.
Before you label me an Xbox Fanboy, let me point out the only consoles I have touched in the last Month are the PS2 and the Nintendo DS.
Suck my balls, virgin boy.
Thats open to opinion.
Funny that, it appears that most of the better games just get sequels constantly, rehashing well known brands instead of innovation (thats not to say the xbox hasn't done it, but its got slightly more "interesting" games shall we say). GT4, tekken 5, ratchet and clank 3, jax and daxter 3 etc. Funny how some developers milk the cash cow ever further. How do we know that gt4 will be any good? you can't, it isn't even out here.
But than every console is unique. We have GPR, you have your GT.

Another prime example of an XBOX owner who thinks they are above everyone else. Your Ford Focus- Ferrari comment was total crap. Sure the Focus sells a lot more, not because of better marketing but because it costs about 1/10 of the price. If Ferrari 355's were being sold for £10,000 or whatever a Focus costs, then I'm sure they would sell more than a Focus.
Maybe the PS2 does have some lousy, overhyped games, but it has games that are way better than anything that is on XBOX. Gran Turismo 4 for example. There is no racer that even comes close to it on XBOX. XBOX owners are fooled into thinking that they are getting a better console because it is technically more powerful and more expensive when there is very little difference in performance.
The PS2 has many game franchises that are widely known as some of the best such as GTA and GT. The Gamecube, probably the best of the three consoles, has even more like Zelda and Mario. The only thing I can think of that has achieved a superb reputation that originated from XBOX is Halo, and I didn't think the PC version was anything special.
All your stupid comments have shown is that you are a typical big headed XBOX fan who was fooled into wasting their money on a machine that really doesn't have any more to offer than a PS2.

At least XBOX owners will have a Rare treat in March.
Everything's down to marketing and the casual gamer settling for the familiar. People who know next to nothing about games are happy to pay £40 for the crap that is is fed into their minds by publishers, games like GoldenEye Rogue Agent and The Getaway, and they're fooled into thinking the PS2 is better because it has more games. What's true is that there may be more PS2 consoles but there are less games per console than for the Xbox/Cube, simply because there are only a few decent games on the PS2.
There's nothing better about the PS2 except that Sony have done a better job of marketing and coaxing 3rd party developers on board. Your ridiculous comments about the Xbox only show your complete and utter ignorance.
> You're really quite stupid, aren't you?
Nope, just don't appreciate stupid idiots like you laughing at my opinion. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion but when a bitter, little XBOX loving ponse like you says something like that, I don't see why I should take it. Not my fault you wasted your money on a console the size of a suitcase that makes as much noise as a washing machine.

Hardy F*****g Har, another XBOX owner who thinks he's better than everyone else.
