what should I do because although the PS2 has a bulit in DVD player i like the look of the Gamecube better and If anyone has the Playstation 2 did you want instead of the PS2 want a Gamecube after you bought it a wish you waited for the GameCube to come so you could buy that.

But if you're selling, try sell to a family member so then you can just pop in their room when they aren't about and play. So you're not exactly losing your N64.
I have this problem, well. Dont buy a PS2, they are good, but I can only see it having a short life because PS3 is already (!) in the making. So expect not much more than a year on the PS2. You will never find quality like Rare, no Sony developer has come even close.
I say, buy a GC, Nintendo Im sure have got it right, some class games are coming out from all developers, because Nintendo switched to disks, So. Mmmm. Developers find it easier to produce games for the GC.
My advice is hold out until GC comes out, I can't wait..
MM

If you look at that from another angle the gamecube might have an even shorter life, If Sony release the PS3 in Japan say 2002/2003 and here 2003/2004 the gamecube will get left behind.
still getting one though :-)
But I doubt it.. GC will go on for at least 2-3 years with is great for only £150. I think people with PS2's and are not bothered and have some cash may buy GC because of the price..
XBox is rip, £300? Get away mate. For £150 you could get a good 5 games and GC.. Mmmmmm

PS2 wont have a short life. PS3 is in the making, but consoles dont take a year to be made. PS3 is in development, but consoles take 3-4 years to make. They also need to have about 1 year with the final specs finalised, to let game companies have developement kits to produce games. I wouldnt expect to see the PS3 until 2004 in Japan, if not later. Nintendo are probably working on there next console, as i've said before development takes ages and to make a good consoles takes years.
Deciding between a GC and PS2 is pretty easy, if you like a lot of the PS2 games that dont appear on the GC get a PS2. If you want the GC games that wont appear on a PS2 get a GC.
But, it shows that they are pretty worried about PS2.. letting people get that information like.. But, remember PS2 has been out for about a year isn't it now? So, I predict.. 2005 for PS3 maybe..
