LMAO - what a fool.
Take a look, if you can remove those blinkers for just one second, at how well Microsoft have built up their online service, and how THEY have single-handedly bought online gaming into the living room.
The USB headset for PS2 ... Xbox has a perfectly well crafted headset itself, so the PS2 isn't really superior there.
"Large amount of games". Well, um, let me see. There are SOME online games for PS2, but in comparison to those available on Xbox I would hardly say there were a large amount. More like, the odd one or two.
A large percentage of Xbox games released at the moment are either fully online playable or have downloadable content, whereas PS2 just plain aren't!
Seriously, there is no arguement to be had here. Xbox wins hands down.

Yeah, but one online game.

I don't pay £6 a month to go online with my PS2, it's only certain games that charge you, like Everquest. Everything else is free.
One off fee of £40 instead of the £6 a month with the PS2. Plus Xbox live has more online games and downloadable content.
Gamecube isn't even a contender really.
