"Xbox possibly No1 Xmas 2002 presents?"

I think Xbox could beat PS2, Gamecube by that price of £159.99 and when the late night xmas shopping start and I think the store will sold out the mighty and powerful Xbox and I think Halo will be the best purchase with the Xbox and dont forget the 2 best games go with it is Dead or Alive 3 and Project Gotham Racing. Dont forget the Xbox Live as well, PS2 and Gamecube have no chance to toppled the No1 Xmas Presents. Timesplitters 2 will be online and PS2 wont able have one and oh dear! hey I own PS2 and Xbox. I will be looking forward to play Timesplitters 2 online.

Well, though Sony is leading the way in terms of next gen console sales, you've got to admit, the most known names in video games are Nintendo and Mario. With the release of Super Mario Sunshine boosting sales in Japan and America, and outselling titles such as GTA3 and Halo, Nintendo have an excellent chance of stealing the Christmas limelight.

May i add that i was not being biased.

I think all 3 consoles have a good chance.

But it all is diffrent at chrismas.

Instead of kids buying them or parents buying them when it first comes out, its actually parents looking for kids.

And lets see Sony they will of heard of and they would know about the PS2 as it was a big thing when it first comes out.
But then you should think ahhh most people who wants a PS2 will have one by now.
But then you think but they could be waiting for all consoles to be out then decide, and then decide PS2 is better.

I think it will be very close.
and im not going to say it either wy becuase theres things going for each console.

I hope either of them don't come out on top, They both have secured a nice position for the christmas period.

I beleive the Xbox will do very wel this Xmas especially in America, who will come out on top remains to be seen but I think it'll be out Xbox and Gamecube.

The PS2 has hopefully had it's day...

I firmly accept that. ;).

But really gamezfreak, you can't blame us. If Nintendo have more fanboys than everyone else, that's unfortunate, but it's not our duty to keep them under control. I stick my head in the X-Box forum every so often, along with other Ninty's such as Edgy, Strafex, Tiltawhirl, Whitestripes so I can see what Microsoft are up to and possibly find something to convince me to save up for an X-Box - not to annoy people.

I beleive the Xbox has cemented a firm position during the Christmas period.

The fact is, if you said that Savatt, then I'd accept it, because I have a certain amount of respect for you and know that you're just voicing your opinion. No-one can predict what's going to happen this Christmas, so I'd accept that. If ~Resurrection~ had done it though, I would know he was purposely trying to start an argument (something I didn't intend) and be a little annoyed, but I'd probably still ignore him.

I fully back up Sav on this one.

This forum has become serious for no apparent reason, that post i posted like 2 weeks ago about the Xbox being voted fave is now nearly a fully fledged console war and Console slagging matches.

We get mad when retards come in here and say amazingly stupid things like: -

"Xbox is crap because you need an extension to support it"
"Xbox is crap because the games are not on the Gamecube"
"Xbox is rubbish as its black"
"Xbox is crap because it does'nt love me like my GC does"

Jeez.

The same thing would happen to you if a Sonyphile/Xboxer came into the Ninty forum and splurt crap similar to that - You'd be angry and serious!
