ps2: was released at christmas but was £300 which was a bit pricey for some people. It has lived up to its name with some mint games like smugglers run and oni, and some more unbelievably realistic games a comin eg metsl gear solid sons of liberties and zone of enders. We should definitely see some more ace games ans it is scheduled to come down £5o after the xbox and cube are made. definitely worth looking into if you cant wait for the others to come out even if it is a wee bit expensive with sony coming in to the gaming world so popular this is a cool console.
gamecube: This is gonna be the one i will definitely in dulge in as i am a big nintendo fan. It is set to release these new titles:
.zelda 128
.mario128
.and waverace are just a few of the impressive titles scheduled to hit the shelves when the cube comes out.
At £100-£200 it is definitely gonna be popular with all.
Hopefully there wont be so many cutey titles that let down the n64 (hooray for perfect dark). Any way looks like it is gonna be big and as nintendo are the most experienced gaming producers here then it is probably a safe bet.
xbox: this is probably the safest console here as microsoft are the biggest computer company in the world. The fact that bill gates is envolved is enough to turn anyone off it but try not to think about it too much. I dont really know much about the launch titles of this console but it is sure to be impressive. at the price the same as the gamecube and is another good buy if you are intrigied by a big black box with an x on the top of it but then the ps2 is doin fine and that never won a beauty contest. so another quality console.
All of these consoles are top. the xbox and cubes cheaper price but do you prefer the ps2 type of game? whichever you choose it wont be wrong, so there is no point getting in an argument about which is better.

Some people are out to put you down....screw them POST AS WELL AS YOU CAN!
The Game
Also, you took the unbiased approach. And I liked that.
Of course, I'm not saying that I'm always biased... {:)
Anyway, well done.
nice post! :)
However... doesnt it take the point out of a discussion forum if nobody states their point of view?!?
As for the X-box there is a huge potential their and the launch games look very good, well from the screenshots. If you want find out more about the X-box launch games then head on over to X-box.com . There are a number of games Microsoft have shown, such as Abes exodus and a new NFL game. The lineup suggests that the X-box games will be very like their PC counterparts, which I think may result in it doing poorly.
However EA have signed up as a developer for the X-box, so if they can produce a FIFA game that looks as good as the NFL game produced for the American market then the X-box should also do well!
Some people love playing platformers ... otherpeople think theyre annoying...
Part of developing as a gamer is finding out what kinda games your into and what games you'd rather leave on the shelf...
Just like movies... no matter how many Oscars English Patient or Titanic gets, and no mattter how many people tell me how much they loved the movie... its just not for me...
Make your own choice about what games you want to play... just because other people are into a game doesnt mean you have to like it... equally just because your not into a game doesnt mean its pants?!?!
