The Xbox in my opinion is best as it has an 8gb hard drive and 250MHz graphic chip the ps2 does hav 1 fing thats better and thats how it plays dvds when u buy the console and dont hav 2 pay more 4 a dvd enable kit. The PS2 only has 128 bit so it lacks in graphics

I have pre-ordered an xbox and cant wait 2 receive it from SR the games on X Box are better as the environments are larger. Whats better PS2 or XBOX???????????????????????????????????????????

To be honest its all very well to churn out stats, but in the end what decides a console is the games. Which console has better games? Thats up for debate.

Actually, the graphics processor in the XBox is 256Bit, running at 250MHz. This is *far* superior to the 128Bit GPU in the PS2 running at just 150MHz.

The CPU in XBox is a lowly 32Bit affair, but runs at 733Mhz. PS2's CPU is a 128Bit processor, but only runs at 300MHz. This makes them pretty much equal in central processor performance.

What he is trying to say is that the X-Box has a separate 250mhz graphics processor so the graphics should be better on X-Box. Though anybody with half a brain knows that it's the developers skill at programming and the machine that determines the graphical prowess.

Aaah wonderful - the txt speaking JAT. Obviously, I think that X-Box is better both by specifications and games. In my personal opinion the launch games (especially those 1st party are great - most notably Halo and DOA3). Amped, PGR and Munch also rival and even beat most games on the PS2 even at this time in Sony's consoles history - all the better for X-Box.

When is this debate going to stop????!!! Yawn.....

Anyway, it depends on what you consider as better. Technically, the XBox IS better than the PS2 - nobody can deny this. However, if it's immediate access to a lot of AAA games right away, then PS2 is streets ahead.

XBox will catch up though, but for the next year or so, I think a lot of XBox owners will be jealous of some games coming to PS2. With time though, that jealousy will surely reverse.
