In this thread really you can dicuss anything you want

I want to start by saying 'Why should PS2 be any better than rivals such as Nintendo Gamecube and Microsoft Xbox??? What makes the Playstation 2 have the edge?

Personally i change consoles every 3ish years. Or so has been my trend so far.

Obviously i haven't purchased a microsoft console as they're new, but i have experienced the nintendos goodness.

I may well trade in my ps2 closer to the time of the ps3 and buy a cut price GC with loads of the best games at cut price. It doesn't really have a resale price, but then again i get another shot of gaming.

I like some of the games that the GC has, but i'm not really liking its controller, as i loved the ps and n64s for the logical setup of buttons.

I'm thinking after i've got a couple of new driving games and killzone, i think i may have to ditch my playstation.

I'm still not going to get a box because it's just too foreign to me.

and gba

GameCube > Xbox > PS2.

All good though.

I was bored last night so I played through an old game of Final Fantasy X. I forgot how emotional the bit in the summoners sanctum is. I must admit it had me choked. Anyone else found this bit good.

I hardly ever play my PS2 now.

I have PS2..XBOX and the CUBE.

All three have them are different in there own way. I play on the xbox more and i very rarely play on the Cube, Ps2 every now and again.

Recently on xbox played DOA 3, Project gotham racing 2 and fuzion frenzy and Shenmue 2 Yes again!. All games i get into alot. I prefer the control pads on the xbox but i use the smaller controller as the big thing was to chunky.

Defenetly down to games though but i wouldnt say i like the others any less.

I must agree with you on the point of rpg's I bought my ps2 to play Final Fantasy X. Then my Game cube to play ffcc. The X box is lacking for Rpg fans. They have mostly extreme sport and half naked vollyball.

Vertices actually :P

Then it has verticies foo'. ;)

It does actually. The Xbox and the GameCube are much more rounded at the corners while the PS2s conrners are a lot sharper!
