Xbox : THE size of a huge VCR - the first thing that puts u off it. Only one good game at launch - HALO ( also coming on pc soon). YOu have to pay an extra £27 just for the dvd controller. The control pad is bigger than Dc's and is uncomfortable, with those four crap "jewel buttons"
and of course..the price-£299...wtf! gamecube is only £165, and with PS2 at £199, that makes best choice, with greats games such as MGS2, and GTA3
face it..xbox is only gonna be boughy by ppl with too much cash to burn, thinking that higher specs win..that is not the case!
ps2 has a great range of platinum titles already, and GC will be bought by lots of children. Microsoft also have no experience at all in making consoles.
Previously the N64 had higher specs than Playstation, but playstaion won in the end. With loads of PSone owners, they will upgrade to Xbox.

r u so stupid or wht
i said 'snes controller' not the snes machine itself

also in reply to some t***eariler who said 'ppl wud have to spend £300 or so to upgrade their pc for halo whwn it comes out'
that guy is stupid..u can get a new pc for around £600 perfectly adequate for halo's specs, which will prob have only 64 mb ram as recommended
ne way, eveyrone wud much rather have a pc to play halo than an xbox
also, someone said that xbox came with broadband facilities which was why it was £299 at launch..wlel think about this..how many ppl r actually going to play online? did u know that 5% of britain have broadband?
do u really think that microsoft wud spend loads of money on servers just for 5% of population?? U STUPID PERSON

It's also actually a fairly poor PC, and it certainly wont own an xbox - it's an all-in-one mobo with cheap on board sound and graphics, small amount of ram - not even ddr - and almost certainly a slow hdd. Don't suppose you questioned why it was so cheap? Great, it's got a fast cpu, good for business apps then, sod all use for gaming without the rest of the spec to back it up.
