Recently, Xbox's popularity seems to have grown on these forums, Even some well known and respected Nintendo fans are purchasing Xbox's or at least showing some intrest.

Today at school, (Im in Year 11) We were argueing about consoles. The majority of my mates were in favour of the PS2, while others were open minded and had an Xbox.

Me and my best mate were oblivious to hear these comments: -

"PS2 has the same graphics, the emotion engine matches the Xbox"
"PS2 is the same size as Gamecube, Xbox is a mammoth!"
"The PS2 controller has pressure buttons unlike Xbox"
"I sleep with my PS2 at night"
"Gamecube is rubbish, as the PS2 has better graphics and GTA3"

We obviously put forward our arguements about Xbox/Xbox Live and the Xbox's better points over the PS2. We asked why did they get a PS2, and the results were'nt surprising.

"My mate has one"
"The sales were high, so I brought one"

I think some PS2 lovers are quite stupid in the way they think, Some people don't like the Xbox as their mate does'nt, Or the Xbox is the size of mount everest. Stupid it really is.

Its actually quite good to speak to multi-console owners/gamecube owners/Xbox owners they speak open minded.

Erm, I own a PS2 and speak about it a lot!

Are you blind? Wookiee is also from the Xbox forum (well, kind of) and displays a LOT of interest in other consoles

And only the other day Savatt posted a message saying he was very interested in buying a PS2.

A lot of people here have also previously had PS2s and traded them in for Xboxs.

That probably because this is an Xbox Forum :)

I do have an intrest in the Gamecube, some games i'd love to play, But i won't be able to afford one as im investing in the Xbox.

Strange that no one from the X-box forum displays any interest at all in any other console, kind of, narrow minded...

The 'emotion engine' is a joke.

And that's coming from a PS2 owner.
