You may think that this is a stupid place to ask such a question, but I've noticed that some people are thinking of trading in PS2's for Xbox's or buying a second console, an Xbox, and I was wondering, if you already own a PS2, what would make you want to replace it with an Xbox?
Is there some genre that isn't catered for on the PS2, that the Xbox will provide?
Do you see the Xbox as being superior?
From what I've seen, the two consoles seem to be marketed towards the same audience, and as such, if you've already got a PS2, why would you want an Xbox?
Am I wrong to assume that both consoles will have similar types of games?

IF I had the money I would get an XBox and a GC to go with my DC and PS2.
But I'm poor, and can't afford it.
So I'll probably go for a GC as the XBox is pretty similar to my PS2 in terms of game genres.

I have a PS2 and have pre-ordered an X-Box due to the games. Halo, Project Gothem, Dead Or Alive 3, Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Jet Set Radio Future e.t.c are all X-Box exclusives and I want to play them.
Iam also going to get a GC due to there being exclusive games on there that I want to play.

I want an XBox because I'm greedy. I already have a PS2 and a Gamecube. Want an XBox now :)
Seriously though, I was attracted to the titles that the XBox is launching with. Quite impressive. Not to mention titles in the pipeline.
Quite looking forward to Jet Set Radio Future and Halo myself.

Wolfenstein and MoH are also coming to PS2.
Xbox is very big, and heavy, but this is semi understandable when you consider its components.
As for wether id buy one i already have, but i will still keep for ps2 for a while, although it may eventually get replaced with a uk gamecube, depending on how Nintendo treats the uk market this time around.

I dont think the PS2 has any good FPS games. A few here and there, Half-life and Red Faction...but nothing special.
Microsoft will have loads. Halo, Return to castle wolfenstien, and Medal of Honour to name a few...
Has loads of stuff coming out on PS2, nothing seems to stay exclusive to Sony these days. Also a lot of X-box games will be superior. Max payne is one i can think of, thanks to the larger storage capacity of the X-box you can save your game anytime during a level. Somthin you cant do on the PS2 version.
Only problem i got with X-box is its size.
