However, recently, I have found that the Xbox is starting to look quite good. It started after reading in 'Edge', that one reporter had stated that Dead or Alive 3 was the best fighting game ever. I was intrigued, and had gone to IGN to get more info. After ogling at some screenshots and downloading a movie, I was convinced that it did look really good. So, I started looking at examples of other software, and they all looked extremely good.
I was no longer anti-XBox, I was quite pro-XBox in fact; the games looked very good, and the technical specifications were staggering. I was still a Nintendo fan, but my views had changed, and I had now decided to get both GameCube and XBox, a big decision since only a few months beforehand I would never had dreamed of it.
The XBox would be guaranteed to be big; with the right advertising campaign and a good launch line-up, I think XBox will be to the next-gen console race what the PSone was to the last-gen.
So people, if you are anti-XBox, search the web for XBox information. It ISN'T bad, and is staggeringly better than the PS2 in terms of specifications and software line-up. I really think it will be great, and give my advice to unfortunate gamers out there who hate Microsoft. The Dreamcast was great, but with negative hype it failed. I am trying now to get rid of the XBox's negative hype, because it really would be a shame to see it fall like Sega's last console.
Punters aren't fools, so listen to the XBox's claims of glory, and take heed of the rumour-mill.
I rest my case.
