Im curious as to how many people have already decided to buy an X-Box. Can you keep your answers brief, like "yes" or "no" and then a quick explanation, I dont really want people going into details like the pipelinig architecture of the X-Box RISC CPU etc etc.
I'll start: I will buy one. Possibly not on day of release, it depends on the price.

The X box is microsoft that says it all.look at windows it's full of "this program has performed an illegal operation" (bugs) and is not very good but everyone likes it because it's now the only one.The cheeky B**tards have nicked some playstation 2 games and will just keep producing the naff box because they can afford too.it's going to be awful i recommend a dreamcast for £99 a Ps2 which has bad titles but the near future looks very bright or for kids a gamecube but never EVER SUPPORT MICORSOFT.
only PC fans will buy the x box because they live in a different planet called the internet and don't know anything about console gaming

Yes - Got mine pre-ordered.
Because :
I get the feeling the PS2 is going to go the same way as the Dreamcast. It's games are easily pirated and these games are too easy to get hold of.
I also believe the X-Box has the most to offer the hardcore gamer.
Not sure about the Cube, might get one for my son for Xmas. Nintendo have a way with certain types of games that he likes to play.
In conclusion : A big YES,

In conclusion : A big YES,
I'll buy an X-box.True I am a Pc owner but I also own a N64 Sega etc.In fact I even have my old Spectrum.Anyway whats your excuse?I bet that you own a PC too coz you posted a message which means that you're online.The X-box will make Microsoft a loss in production costs.Hardware costs more to make than it sells for so if you hate Microsoft that much buy an X-box but don't buy any games.I also recommend that everyone owns a DC but the Ps2 is just a waste of money.The GC is a Nintendo which means that it will have good games.The X-box will definitly will have good games for definite though.And only idiots who don't know anything about computers get illegal operation messages.The only othet reason is other people using your PC.My own Pc which I only use doesn't get illegal operations although the other one, the one that other people are allowed to use does occasionally get illegal operations but I can nearly always carry on as normal.So Reidenteveil fan, my verdict is that you are just stupid if you make unfounded comments about the X-box.Buy one and the best games on it and you will enjoy yourself I guarantee that if your normal.

No it was an exaggeration but it is still huge, way too big for a videogame console and I know it isn't good because the range of games at E3 was very poor and the PS2 and GC had much better showings. Also, did u hear about the xbox's announcement where they were showing off the "power" and the console crashed? hummmm.........

i still disagree with you about the games...there are loadsa good ones that will be coming out on the x box...and most of the good games that are out/will be going to the ps2 will also come to the x box....
fair enough the machine is quite big...but frankly i don't care about the looks and size that much....i mean when you are playing a game, are looking at the screen or the actual console....
ps2 and gc both look really good too but i'm just saying don't underestimate the x box
