Couple of years? From now...

...probably not. That's my guess. It'll be the end of 2005 then. Way old for a console.

Its games aren't. And Nintendo are making more money and profit. So if ANYTHING the PS2 is closer to the Dreamcast. Actually in Japan the XBox is closer to the Dreamcast.

Oh shutup all of you and me. What a pointless topic.

Why do people think that XBox is going to be a Dreamcast?????

Its selling better than Gamecube! If anything Gamecube is closer to a Dreamcast than XBox.

The only thing XBox and Dreamcast have in common is online play...... AND AMAZING GAMES!!!!!! YAY.

Microsoft have plenty of money. Sega didn't.

Microsoft WILL dominate the console market, even if the Xbox doesn't. Just look at their history. It's the sad fact that with money, a company can do anything.

A MS dude was asked did Xbox have a fall out plan, jis responce was "no, we will double our efforts to ensure Xbox is a sucess".

Or something. Anyway, I think bar Japan xbox has had a good entry into the industry. What did you all expect, people to sudden;y stop buying PS2s and buy XBoxs instead? Common it takes time.
