Tis good, but not great.
Anyhoo, PS2 has nothing appealing whatsoever. Xbox has at least got power behind it, allowing games like Sudeki, Fable and Halo 2 to look wonderful, not to mention Doom 3 etc. Ps2 on the other hand, while it does have the interminable GTA series (oh. joy) and Ico/Rez, has very little else.
It has also 'lost' GTA, Metal Gear and Final Fantasy to other consoles, its three strongest brands that kept the PSone so strong.
Well, I say argue, what I mean is, say why we like ours and then not listen to the others side, not except that they may have different taste and generally just makes fools of ourselves.
You haven't thought this through have you?
Sorry, but the PS2 is perhaps the mostleast appealing console ever.
Sure, Xbox may not have quite such a range, neither does the GC, but to be honest, the games kick the PS2s butt.
It cannot compare to the Xbox, let alone the GC.
I prefer GC.
But anyway.
Why is this particular idea always the one monkeys spam with?
Why *this* topic?
If you're gonna buy 2 consoles they're the best 2 to own, there isn't a single big series of games other than GTA (which looks like it'll be out on Xbox very soon) that isn't available or bettered on GC and Xbox.
