Im a lover of all games and consoles but i get sick and tired of people saying oh X-Box is gonna trash PS2. Ok the X-Box has better specs but isnt a games console about the games.
The PS2 has great Graphics but some of the games lack in the gameplay department and isnt that what the most important thing in a game is the Gameplay.
The X-Box has great graphics but have u played the games and the same with the gamecube but with the likes of mario and zelda and perfect dark nintendo dont have worrys. neither do Sony with MGS2 comin out. The same with X-Box with their own MGS but thats 1 game.
I bought a PS2 because i owned a ps1 for 4 years and loved it and so i wanted their new creation. So ar ive been impressed but ive been impressed with the X-Box and Gamecube.
Im not putting them down but we actually havent played on them so just dont make assumptions aboput something that u havnt played.

So what you're saying is don't make assumptions on consoles by virtue of reputation, precedent and hype, but do make assumptions about games on the basis of reputation, precedent and hype?
And also that you can make assumptions about PS2 when you decide to buy it on the basis of PS1, but nobody can do exactly the same thing with respect to gamecube or x-box?

...must fight the urge to patronise...

A good opinion, one of which we need more of in this forum.

Go my people... (Er?) Go and find the people, and bring them here...

He also said that he loved his PS1. I like mine, but I wouldn't go that far.

Sorry Snipe, I just had to defend myself. After all, I did choose *that* game for Gameaday... :0)

Are you sure you are getting the Gamecube version and not the ones they made for the Dolphin?
