Why would you wanna buy an Xbox when you could buy a full spec PC, this so called Xbox its just like a pc but your using your tv and not a monitor.

Whats this new XBOX LIVE another scheme to boost sales!! Well sure, to use it you'll need to buy a pack with mic etc costing $49 in America. $49 all they asking for to boost popularity, yeh right.

Why would you want a Xbox, it may have good graphics but thats all. Long live the SONY with their PS2.

This war still goes on with everyone, there will be a bigger war when the PS3 and the XBOX 2 comes out, not forgetting the Gamecube 2 if that does come out.

Yeh actually I do want a GameCube, especially the PANASONIC GAMEQUBE, but its only available for Japan, this version is really heavy, it plays DVD, has a nice bluish silverish colour, has an lcd screen, can play gamecube games from usa and japan, I dont think the UK will be realising this console. Its far better than the XBOX!!

Xbox = £200
PC = £700+ (for a 'full spec' PC)

I'd rather have an XBox!

What the?

Well I've got a Gamecube (and I'm happy with it), if I bought another console then I'd get an XBox. (In my opinion)The PS2 is getting outdone by both the Cube and the Xbox. Most 'good' games that get released on the PS2 are usually coming out on either or both the Cube and Xbox (and the games look a lot better on the two consoles). The advantage that the Cube and Xbox have is that their respective companies produce game for them and we get a much better variety of games!

Now I hope that you will listen to what I and many others have said and grow out of your PS2 fanboy 'stage'. Maybe you'll even get a good console like an Xbox or a Gamecube!

Thank you

Why did you need to post the whole of that topic again just to say that one thing? Not just that but you also did a 4 word post entitled Garbe123 Is a Fan boy. I won't do a 4 letter post entitled Dringo is a spammer, but after been in contact with you for 2 days that is exactly what I think of you! It had to be said :)
