Rite, so you have two brilliant consoles. One made by Microsoft, and the other made by Sony, but which one really is the best???
There are some factors that people dont like about the X-box but they do like them about the playstation 2. For example, there is the size of teh Xbox. It is massive compared with the Playstation 2 and also teh playstation can be stood vertical aswell as horizontal. This makes it easier to store it and its obviously going to fit into more places.
The graphics on the X-box are incredible. The playstation 2's graphics are also looking quite promising. There are many more games out on the Playstation 2...ok it has been out for about 6 months before the X-box but the Playstation 2 has Grand Theft Auto III, Gran Turismo 3, Gran Turismo Concept. So what top games does the X-box have... It has Halo, Colin Mcrae 3 and Project Gotham Racing.
Also, the controlers of the X-box are indeed over sized and uncomfortable. Whereas the design of the Playstation 2 controllers is the same as the Dual Shock's for Playstation 1 and Ps 1.
The X-box is gradually coming down in price which might incourage more people to buy this console. I personally think that microsoft should stick to creating P.C. software/hardware.
In all, I think that the Playstation 2 is still better at this moment in time due to the vast amount of games avaliable at the moment and then all of the other small aspects like controller design and console size.
I rate the X-Box 7/10 and the Playstation 2 8/10. But Every one is to their own thoughts!

Yeah, I know it's irony, but gerrid always says ironing. It just sounds funny. And before gerrid comes in here going nuts saying, "I meant to say ironing" I know.

PS2 has good games, graphics plus it can play DVDs. The X box does all that and has all the same games.
If you have a PS2 there is no point in getting a X box!

#1, it's been out about year and six months more than the X-Box.
Funnily enough, you have mentioned each game a fanboy of either console would metion, you should go into more detail.

The X-box's controller, although raather big, is at least sturdy, and doesn't fall apart as easily as the PS2 controller.

Most PS2 games are rubbish though, the controller isn't that bad, and the size is because of the built-in hard drive which saves more money than having to buy several £30 memory cards

What about the Gamecube, it is FAR superior to both consoles with the best size, games, price and great graphics
