"PS2 and GC: The difference"

OK, here's a difinitive difference between the PS2 and GC that we can argue about for a few hours:

The PS2 launch day had people queueing for days, even trailing electric sockets to the stores so the can play on the outside.

The GC launch day went with a bit of a fizz, with a couple of small queues.

Evidentally, this shows that the PS2 was more eagerly awaited than the GC. Why is this?

*TBN stirs the...*

Oh dear. Teribble mistake. Sorry er-no. I have just caught on to what I have just done.

I am terribly sorry.

I got mine from the financial times which my dad reads.. and whenever there is a game related artical I browse through it many times.

Semejal: I spent hours trailing the Internet. Can't remember where I got my figures from in the end.

Ok. fair point. Which is very true... but if half of these Playstation2's were called back because of DVD faults, and a third of them had faulty memory card slots, and some had regional problems... lemme think..... oh look... with working consoles! Nintendo actually win! and with game sales, Nintendo win....

The GC has half the volume of the PS2 and a 1/3 the volume of the Xbox.
