"Xbox too big"

Anybod else's mates keep going on about the actual Xbox being too big? how rediculous is that? it sits there and in all honesty takes up minimal space. I think it must be the only reason they can think of to diss the box as they are all stuck on PS2 cukoo land. anybody had their xbox for ages then played on a PS2- you see a clear difference in the graphics.

Yea why don't these people shut up?

So what if the Xbox is 1.25x larger? It's about 5x more powerful at least.

the xbox is about one and a quater times bigger than the ps2...i would say. anyway it doesn't really bother me and i really don't see what the big deal is about the size!

i have no problem wit hthe size of the Xbox. there's a lot of s##t in there :)

i only see the front because it's under my VCR stand ( i don't have a problem with it anyway) . the pad, i have no complaints there either. my hands are fine with it. the size and little kids...you have to admit most of the games are for the older teen generation who can handle manly pads. this machine's for the big boys ;)

Yeah apparently their getting the Japenese controller over to europe, but I think it will take a while.

I'll tell you what is too big is the controller. Its fine for my chunky hands but I saw a kid in comet fumbling with the controller. He most have been about 10 and he simply couldn't hold it right. The controller has been poorly designed as its just not suitable for a wide age range. Crap as the ps2 is, it has a much better controller that any age can use comfortably. What were Microsoft thinking of? I've heard the jap controller is better but it has awkwardly placed buttons that you can easily press accidentily. Hopefully Microsoft will bring out a better thought out controller like Sega did with the saturn pad.

Nice post Olympic hero your right I do prefer my x-box to my ps2 and As Adrian is doing I will probaly end up getting a g/c but I find the x-box the most appealing . Better ratio of quality games

Person 1 = Gamecube fanboy
Person 2 = X-Box fanboy
Person 3 = Some weirdo
Me = Me

Person 1 - The X-Box is way too big.
Person 2 - The Gamecube is way too small.
Person 3 - The 32X has better graphics then both of them combined!
*person 1 and person 2 jump person 3 and throw him in the river*
Person 1 - You cant carry the X-Box because its too big.
Person 2 - Youd lose the gamecube because its too small.
Me - Ahhhhh, Shut up! *smashes their heads together*
*Person 1 faints*
*Person 2 faints*
*Me rejoices*

Translation - Its just some fanboys who cant think of a good argument.

Unless your a women, then size is everything apperantly ;) he he

I think people have made a big thing about the X-box being big so what, as long as it plays good then the size doesn't matter.

I think the Xbox looks good. Looks better than the PS2 anyway.

It sits under my telly and looks mean. Like a console version of Mr T.

And it looks like it's worth £200 as well, unlike some other consoles...
