The X-box and its future incarnations wil never fail for the simple reason that Microsoft have shed loads of money to keep pumping into it. It may have better specs but I honestly can't see any graphical difference between Halo and say Rogue Leader.
The playstation has ALWAYS (PS1 & PS2) been the worst out of all the console in that 'generation', they are shoddy. Badly made, poorly put together, no originality STILL only two controller ports ffs! But for some reason people just continue to buy it (and i'm not just talking about the console, if you get my drift).

(note: I'm not saying either of these two consoles don't have any decent games because they do of course. But when it boils down to it Nintendo are simply the best)

The master system will rule supreme!

...Now back to reality...

Neither the PS2, Cube or X-Box looks like it is going to fail at this stage.
The PS2 has the largest fan base so its future is solid.
Microsoft have enough money to buy fans if they needed to. But they dont. X-Box has a good game lineup and its power is the best a console has seen.
The Gamecube has so many fanboys how could it fail? =P (j/k)
Oh yeah plus rare and nintendo make some great games.

Soon I will own all three! Just have to go to the shops.

I've just released my new console, the PhilBox.
It's got lifelike graphics and you would think that you are watching a T.V film because it's so real.

Only problem is, its only got one game!

Point being, graphics mean nothing, games make the console, not the specs.

Dringo looks at Halo, then looks at Metroid, shrugs shoulders. Dringo looks at Soul Calibur 2 then at DoA3 and shrugs his shoulders "Where's the much better graphics he was on about". Then Dringo looks at Resident Evil, "oh there they are, but hang on thats not on the X-box?"

How is the Xbox 'over priced hardware'? It's only £70 dearer than the GC and its so much better in terms of graphics! Have played Halo? Look at the size of the enviroments that you walk around, Xbox can do things that could never be done before. The Xbox has had quality titles from day 1 and has more in development. The GC is good but it hardly has loads of quality titles to blow you away at the moment so anyone can hardly say Xbox and PS2 are going down!!
