"WHAT IS SO GOOD ABOUT THE XBOX?"

I have the PS2 an GC but don't have an Xbox. I feel that most games are ported to different consoles and not many games are out. Prove me wrong enough to persuade my Dad to get it for my birthday.

does that make ps2 a mac too? or is the mac a ps2 because sony are just too 'all powerful'. or is sony just a front for microsoft to eat nintendo?
or are the people in my head really from david lynch's gamecube. and who the *ahem* is alice? The truth isn't out there.

Nah, a PS2 doesn't have a real operating system.

Splodge.

microsoft have money to waste, their probably already on xbox3 finally making a profit. there's a lot of future money at stake.

as for halo coming out on pc? its like microsofts mario. a flagship title. basically halo on pc? don't hold your breath

ps2 operating system:

10 goto 10

And they're doing a good job wasting it.

They STILL lose money on every Xbox made.

Hah.

its probably been the plan all along. like i said there is a lot of future money to be made, Sony and Nintendo by selling consoles at a loss played into MS's hands, because MS can't get into anti-competitive legal problems if its competitiors started the 'loss selling' tactics

its all a rich tapestry

Halo on PC will happen. Especially as Bungie originally intended it to be a PC and Mac title before Microsoft bought them.

i think the key words are 'microsoft bought them'. similar to if, for instance, the words were 'nintendo bought them'. either way PC halo is not a certainty. and there are halo clones on pc too or there will be, im not that up on pc games

The only thing, in my monkey_opinion, that the Xbozx has going for it is Halo. It is a f*cking stunning example of sheer gameplay. sure it has some of the best graphics on any console, but even if the graphics were a tenth as good, the gameplay and tenseness of the situations would still make up for it.

Yay Halo!
