I think that PS2 rules above all over games consoles. Me, being a video game addict, know all the reviews, ratings, and ups or downs of consoles. How could you say no to a PS2 with games such as Enter The Matrix, Splinter Cell, and many more breathtaking games out there? And with its high Quality, life like Graphics it is a big bonus. One argument for gamecube was its Differentiation of having the famous Mario 'plumber man' hitting the screens of all Gamecube owners. Now to be frank with you, Mario is alright, i particulary enjoy mario on N64, but Mario Sunshine isnt really anything to be extra pleased about owning. Weapons wise Mario Sunshine goea about as far as a waterblaster. Whereas take for example splinter cell - as far as weapons are this game has everything, all the stereotypes of different weaponry as well as a few gadgets thrown in for the fun of it. PS2 is a must buy for anyone who appreciates a brilliant console, if you dont - go buy rubbish gamecube and sit playing never knowing that there will always be something better...

Percentage of Bill Gates money that will go to charity: at least 95%.

The kids (2 of) get $100m each and he keeps about $500 million after he retires. the rest goes to the Bill Gates Foundation. The rest being around %53 BILLION.

The PS2 has nothing that makes it worth buying anymore. The GC has far far more exclusives, and really good exclusives at that. Metroid Prime, Zelda WW et al, all better than Gran Turismo 3 and Vice City. Vice City will be on the Xbox next year and will be better on it as it will have better graphics and extras.

The Xbox is by far the best console out there. It has some fantasti exclusives, you have heard of Halo and Project Gotham Racing right?

PS2 is old, underpowered nowadays and has a duff DVD player. There are no games on it that can not either be gotten on another platform or better equivalents. Plus they break. Easily. So get some facts before you go dissing other consoles.

Bill Gates is NOT the richest man in the world, but he gives MILLIONS to charity EVERY YEAR.

And that's just him. Microsoft as a company also gives millions to charity and community initiatives every year. And that's not including the Microsoft staff charity donations, which, globally, run into the hundreds of thousands every year also.

For an industry expert, you don't seem to know anything at all. I think you're just a snotty little kid who got a PS2 for christmas and thinks that because it's the console YOU own, it has to be the best by default, otherwise mummy and daddy wouldn't have bought it for you.

I'm not going to say whether or not the PS2 is as good or bad as anything else on the market. That's for individuals to decide for themselves.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

LAUGHING TIME IS OVER.

There's no point in even continuing this. He's shown the fatal flaw in his dastardly plan - he knows absolutely nothing about the GC, he's just blindly trying to hold onto the fact that 'PS2 iz Da BEsT'.

And if you really want to know, I had a PS2.
For 3 months.
I had all the games I wanted.
I got bored of them.
The new releases dried up.
I sold the lot.
