Ever since th ps1 came out sony have always lead the way in terms of sales, popularity, and graphics. But ever since Microsoft released it's XBOX there has been some competition, not just graphicly wise but poulartiy. Do u think the PS2 has to worry about the XBOX overtaking it or does it have to worry about overtaking it.

PS2: Rules.
XBox: Bad word.

Project Gotham Racing is just a better game than Gran Turismo. I know because I have both.

Better graphics, more cars, more tracks, better sound and above all more fun.

Yes the Xbox is big, but it is the games that make the difference.

Oh and putting the PS2 in vertical causes loading errors in quite a few games. It's a pointless feature.

but gran turismo rules it is the best how can whatever that game is beat gt??

microsoft are the richest though and xbox is owned by guess who..
70million is peanuts to microsoft....

i mean bill gates has over 30 billion dolars and he is the richest person in the world so they could fight back but..

ps2 still rules cause its smaller too and vertical improves qualitly.

Except with GTA it is:

Rockstar make game
Rockstar sign a contract with Sony that says PS2 only for a year
(Rockstar ger their money out of it)
Rockstar then release it on Xbox after the contract is up and make yet more money

And Sony only make royalties.

The PS2 will never be taken over in terms of popularity, it has now passed the 70 million mark. I don't see any console ever selling as much as that in the future, as the PS3 will be under attack from Xbox Next and the N5.

For the types of games I like it is Xbox > Gamecube > PS2.

It just doesn't cut it any more, it is old. Time to accept that and just enjoy it for what it is as opposed to trying to argue that it is the best now. Because it isn't.

And PGR wipes Gran Turismo.

In terms of quality gaming..

GameCube > Xbox > PS2

But I still like them all.

And yet GTA sucks.

So it's completely irrelevant to me.

Hence:

GC
Xbox
PS2

yeah, about a year and a couple of months later. I would go insane waiting that much longer after its been released on a different console it may hvae GTA 3 and Vice city now but what about when GTA 4 comes out (which is due in november) you'll have to wait for another year and a bit until you get Gta 4the Ps2 only need to wait 10 months and then will have 12+ months of rubbing it in Xbox's face.
