I am fairly informed about the PlayStation 2 and the Xbox, but if my son wants the very best console, then which do you feel will be the best console/entertainment system out of the following:
(note, I have a very healthy Mega Drive and around 30 games, my son has the Dreamcast, my wife has her books ;)
The Game Cube - it's Nintendo, it's gonna be good right? So will Sonic Team's bandwagon soak up the sales? Will Sonic versus Mario happen? That'd be pretty amazing!! Maybe Nintendo and Sega will venture in joint projects!!
The PS2 - it's not rubbish by any means, but I am not convinced by the football games on the format, and yet I think it will produce some of the best games of the next few years - the highly anticipated GT3 and MGS2?
The XBox - Microsoft's first, and possibly last foray into the console market, can they steal the limelite from Sony, and would this console be the best investment?? Who knows? If the price is right, and the DVD player good quality, I may well get this one.
thanks
if you can add to this thank you ever so much!!

If you have a Dreamcast then youll no doubt be satified at present. With great games like Crazy Taxi 2 and Shenmue 2 being released.
My advice is to buy your son a GameBoyAdvance now to tide him over till November, its going to be the toy to own next month and theres no doubt that its also probably going to be popular for years to come (like the Gameboy).
Then when Microsoft and Nintendo finally release their new consoles in the US in November youll be able to make an informed decision that isnt based on predictions.

At this very point in time the Gamecube's games look nothing short of delicious, but everyone should wait until they are given the chance to play one.....
remember Screenshots b...a...d!
Also, the first five people who reply are invited in October to my house to play the Gamecube...

Stop blocking me and get rid of your mood! I was just having friendly talk!
If you want more information about any console, the best place to stop off is at www.ign.com
It's a good news service, and the reports are never biased.
The best thing you can do is read as much up as you can about the games on the consoles and news. Try and get a good idea of each console, and then make your own decision.
As a gamer, I would say Gamecube, and many would agree, and many would disagree. In the end, it's down to you.
