O.K. I know the PS2 is a bit more out of date than the Nintendo and Microsoft entries, but it is still holding fast as the U.K's number one console, so I need to know why you think PS2 has stayed top for so long.

That has got nothing to do with Sony or the Network Adapter though, it's down to the developers who make those games.

I've played a fair few of them and whether it be the fact the xbox pad is the worst thing in history or i just like playing FPS games on a PC i prefer the PC versions.

That's just giving into the masses of nerdy PC owners who whine on about ggraphics cards and geekware till the cows come home. Are you trying to tell me you've actually played half of the PC ports on Xbox, long enough to work out which system they play better on?
Didn't think so.
If you still want that list though, I'd be happy to give you it.....though it could get very boring for both of us.

Socom and.....Socom 2?
WOW!
Then you gotta be in ore of the other 'great' games in the onlineline-up.
2 player SSX 3
4 player XIII
8 Player Rainbow Six 3 with no co-op mode
8 player Ghost Recon with 2 player co-op
2 player Lord of the Rings
etc etc
Not exactly very enticing in the slightest. Let's hope Sony do a better job with PS3.
FM, you're not trying to tell me that you can find 70 games on PS2 that are really worth your time are you?

But GameCube am winnar.
I just thought of another reason why the PS2 is still top! And it's nothing to do with little blue lights!!

PS2 160
XBox 48
Gamecube 27
TA DAAAA!
