Oh joy of joys!
Which console, do you think, would break first when you dropped it onto another console?
The Gamecube seems very hollow to me, and is also rather small.
The Dreamcast is wider, and I think it's pretty heavy.
But without a doubt, I think the PS2 would win. It's bloody huge, and could break any console into pieces.
So what's the difference between this, and another topic saying that the Gamecube has a faster processor so it must beat PS2?
None.
However, what should be argued are the second and first party games, because that is the only reason why hardcore gamers buy consoles. Sod the third party, those are on any system.
That was my tip of the day.

Just noticed something, Sandsnake, the Gamecube has yet to be delayed, so why will it never be on time?
Seriously, why do you think it will be delayed?

Jimmy, you are taking this a bit too seriously, snadsnake, read the question again, and Ceiroy, what was the point in your post?
Hello all you guts waiting for the (never on time) GAmecube and hoping for a PS2 for this christmas.
I strongly think that while you are fantasing about the "big N" and the Ps2, all are forget THE main contender altough new, XBOX!
Come on which company is fully commited with half a billion dollars back-up. has 13 top quality developers to make xbox exclusive games for them and is the only console to have Halo. Also has asked E3 to give them Twice the space sony used for the Ps2.To put in enlish that neraly the whole console area!!!

fair enough bunch of crap, his window might have been about 1 metre away from the ground. My mate was throwing one of his PSX CDs around his garden and it snapped, he then played some of the game until it crashed. Very sad end.
Jimmy, your not at all biased towards the N64 are you?

I once dropped a copy of Zelda (64) out of a window onto concrete! It still worked!The joy of cartridges :-)

Most of the machines you talk of have not been released, so you cannot speculate about the Gamecubes Strengths. The list of Machines in terms of Strength would be. Also the way you word the question i.e.
Which console, do you think, would break first when you dropped it onto another console?
Suggests that the console being dropped is the console being tested, therefore a bloody huge system would be more likely to break, with the lighter sturdier consoles being the victors. Hence my answers
LEAST LIKELY TO BREAK
N64 (strongest)
Playstation 1 (new version)
Dreamcast (quite bulky so not as strong)
Playstation 2 ( too narrow so vunerable if dropped)
Original Playstation (very flimsey)
MOST LIKELY TO BREAK
But hey, why would you want to drop any of these Great systems anyway....Take care of your consoles.

how can something look hollow? I havn't really seen enough pictures yet, the pS2 is a good console but I really don't like the looks, if/when I get one I will stick a cardboard box over it and make two huge wholes for those annoying controllers to go through. My GCube, if I ever get one will sit on a glass shelf with a golden rim, lights will shine from underneath it's beutiful body, my mate has recently bought a Dreamcast, I have got to say that compared to a N64, it is a lot better, I can see why dan used to write about it so much, it really is worth the money you pay, thanks to SR you can get a package with a DC and a DVD player for under a PS2 price, which will you buy? it also looks better than a PS2 has 4 player games and has chu chu rocket, one of the most addictive games made. Did anyone ever get hooked on Tetris? this is more addictive than that!
Here's my tip of the day: DON'T BUY DEUS EX IF YOU HAVE A PC WITH 64MB OF RAM!!! IT WON'T WORK VERY WELL!!!!!!!!!!!!
I played it on my grandad's 128mb of ram PC today and it worked a lot better. Not perfect though.
