I'm thinking of getting another console to go with my trusty PS2, but I'm not sure which of the current batch would suit my needs more. I absolutely love Halo to bits, and Halo 2 comes out soonish. But Ialso lke the look of them Star Wars games on the GC - especially Rebel Assault 3 when that comes out, Xwings, Millennium Falcons, Taun Tauns, etc. But then again Star Wars: Galaxies come out on XBox in September and that makes me drool. So which should it be? Xbox or Gamecube - you decide*.

I tried to a few weeks back but it was over 1 and a half years a go and I don't think its on the system any longer.

I'm trying to find ~that~ post.

It should be quite humourous now!

Indeed...

Made the transformation a while a go and although as a console I prefer the Xbox I own more top exclusives for my GameCube. Usually play a few games from each console each day so I am enjoying my dual ownership :)

See, proof that fanboys as big as Top Score can be 'neutered!'

You've made a good recovery from your severe fanboy condition 'garbe.' All that work that went into making this happen...

Dunno, I've got all three. At the moment though, my GC and Xbox is getting the most attention.

XBox, because at least it's got a future.

Sell the PS2 and get both :)

I'd have to say Xbox, in Star Wars terms it has Galaxies and Knights Of The Old Republic coming for it, as well as Halo 2, a new DOA, Project Gotham 2, some decent budget titles and generally the best multiformat games, plus new stuff like all of Rare's new releases, Sudekia and Fable and *continues for ages*

The new Cube Star Wars game looks good, but the on foot sections will more than likely suck as several E3 reports mention already.

I've got an Xbox and a Gamecube, and as someone earlier mentioned, it's the perfect twosome for gaming.

Best comment I have read all day. Where do these people think up their ideas? For your needs I would say Xbox but to be honest I rate the Cube just as highly so I am impartial :)]

Perfect combination is both of them without a doubt.
