"Pathetic"

Now, firstly i have all 3 consoles and don’t do all that console wars crap "OMG XBOX IZ H00GE!!" etc. But I have to say that Sony are being pathetic.

They are bringing out a smaller console ( [URL]http://news.teamxbox.com/xbox/6802/Sonys-Halo-2-Party-Crasher[/URL] ) a week before HALO 2. Rumours say they are delaying GTA:SA a week too so it will coincide with the new sleeker console. And from what i heard they also delayed GT4 a bit longer.

So they are competing "so what?" you may say. But i find it annoying that they cant let each other have some time to shine.

I have to admit that that looks pretty cool. Although I wouldn't go throwing my old ps2 away to get it. Not that I have a ps2. Xbox only :)
It would only be worth owning if you'd been living on mars for 3 years and didn't know that any 2nd gen consoles were available!

Still looks ugly.
I think (well.. actually I KNOW) that i'll spend my cash on halo 2, not the PS2 on a diet.

Aww, looks so tiny and sweet. Leave it alone.

Creepy, I think it's called good business

So it's the SAME price as a better console? Heh.

Emperors new clothes syndrome.

I may just get it then, I'm considering selling my X-Box and I could be doing with a new PS2 pretty soon, as my current one seems to be playing up a bit. I could easily trade my X-Box and PS2 console for this new one, and then sell all the rest of my X-Box games for £100. Now that's a possible plan.

Sounds like stepping back instead of stepping forward.

I did the same a while back when the N64 dried up, I thought 'hey the PSone can't be THAT bad'. Guess what? I was wrong.

Look at the difference between SWB on a PS2 and SWB on an Xbox for a good indication of the size of the backwards step you will be taking.

What are the differences?
