Not to mention it has a built in memory card which sucks becuase if u want to transfer data to your friend's console, you will have to take your whole console over to him. P

Not to mention great titles such as Grand theft auto san andreas

OMG I have to quote this guy again.

Number 1. You can buy a portable memory card.

Number 2. GTA SA came out for Xbox also. <_< Xbox has Halo and the better version of Splinter Cell. <_<

This guy must be super stupid or something

Ummmm, no. It only came out on the Ps2 version. Besides why buy more stuff on your xbox that is already built in it. That is just stupid. Anyway, the PS2 online experince is the boom. It is not bad. Atleast not with the SBC Yahoo! Also lets not mention that even the psp is better than the xbox. face it, xbox is good for racing and shooting only. Ps2 is good for fighting, adventure, two player games and much much more. Microsoft just copied the PS2. dont u get it? List me 10 FACTS about the xbox that are good. And please dont go like "OMGZ TEH XOBX IS WAYS BETER BCAZ I ONW IT."

Scorpion, you know nothing. GO away. Maybe, everyonce in a while you might meet a guy on PS2 online that doesn't have 56k. Yay, now the ping is lowered down to 700. With Xbox Live, there is almost no lag, because you have to have high speed for all games. I would love to see the PS2 trying to play Halo 2 online, it would be like playing Quake in a 60 person room with 56k.

Wow, you're even saying a HANDHELD is better than a CONSOLE. What a fricking retard. Wow.

Xbox is good for shooting and racing? Right. Take a look at some of the games first. Fable, Morrowind, Splinter Cell...

Microsoft copied the PS2? LMAO. The Xbox has four controller ports, 50,000 blocks of built in memory, and superior online play. They copied no one, they just made a computer and called it a console, and it worked.

The Xbox owns because....
1. It has superior graphics that no other console could touch (I would love to see the PS2 run Halo 2! HA!)
2. Built in hard-drive, 50,000+ blocks. For Halo2 alone, I used about 500, that would take so many PS2 memory cards.
3. Four controller ports.
4. Online play that just completely bashes eveything.
5. It can play DVDs with more ease, on the PS2 I would randomly have to guess what button to press on the controller to get it the stop, play, etc.
6. It looks better.
7. It is better for LAN parties.
8. The controllers have an awesome feature, so when you yank on it, the Xbox doesnt fall off the table, the controlled cable justs slides off. Very handy.
9. It has a very cool dashboard and chatroom system for Xbox Live.
10. You can download updates, new maps, content, etc from Xbox Live for games.


Now you post 10 reasons the PS2 is better.

Okay, I admit that it may have some cool features, But remember that the PS2 was realeases like I think 1 year before they released the xbox. And they copied the ideas. That is what I think. Now for the 10 reasons that you want.

1. Free online play. And one more thing. I have never been disconnected while playing a game. nor my opponent. NEVER

2. Has TONS and TONS of more games than the xbox does.

3. Has a line that you can connect to your computer and sava data over there (HAHAHA that is unlimited space. over 35 GB on my computer)

4.Has much more accesories

5. teh controller vibrates and gives you a very cool experince

6. It has some awsome graphics that are unbeatable

7. The way that the controller is built makes it better to play fighting games on

8. It has 4 diffrent versions (PS1, PS2, PSP, the flat PS2)

9. Costs way less than xbox and is better

10. The memory cards are small and easy to carry. You can fit over 20 of them in your back pocket.

8.

XBL is $50 a year for something with rarely any lag and with may more feutures. That is definitely worth it. The XBox wins in online play. Period.

Ok. I do not know the exact number of games out for each console so my numbers may be way off, but here is an example. If the PS2 had 900 games and the xbox had 700 do you really thinkt hat would make much of a difference at all? There are so many games out for both systems that is not a valid argument when debating which console is better.

It's no unlimited

Like what? Both have tons.

So does the xbox controller.

6. It has some awsome graphics that are unbeatable


And this is the funniest one here. Out of all of the this gen consoles PS2 has the worst. Xbox and gamecube both have it beat.

7. The way that the controller is built makes it better to play fighting games on


This is personal preference.

8. It has 4 diffrent versions (PS1, PS2, PSP, the flat PS2)


We are discussing the PS2 here....

9. Costs way less than xbox and is better


Last I checked they cost the same and the xbox came w/ 2 games while the PS2 did not, You also had to buy a memory card to even save games. So int he end the PS2 was more expensive just to be able to play it. Prices may have changed though.

Xbox ones are small too.

You seriously need to stop arguing since you are just making a moron out of yourself.

I am glad there is a good team of people that truly know video games, AKA the ones defending the Xbox. That sounds fanboyish but you guys seriously are bringing up the lamest stuff ever.

I get mad reading this its so uneducatedly posted by half of you. Unless you saw every e3 video and all the press briefings, read the specs, STUDIED WHAT THEY MEANT, and then discussed it before posting here then back off <_<

Wait, 360 is using G5 processors? That's ******* hilarious.

EDIT: I just did a little research. Apparently, 360 isn't using g5's. It was too good to be true lol.

The PS3 games will probably be more expensive as well.  I'm still getting Xbox360

The Xbox 360 games are most likely going to be the same price as the PS2 games -__-

Yeah the prices always have been about the same prices bettween the two and they will prolly always be. O_o

Here is my take on all of this.

Microsoft will win this console war by leaps and bowns. Why? They rely on more than Specs (Sony) and innovation (Nintendo). In their press briefing you could see they were forused on making the 360 something ANYONE could want in their house. Sure, the PS3's prerendered trash looks good, but considering Xbox 360 was around 60-75% underpowered at e3, it could easily reach that qualilty. What people don't understand is that even if PS3 had infinite power, for the game publishers to be able to utilize all that power takes time. Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory was the graphic cap on the Xbox. That means it took nearly 5 years to Cap out the Xbox. Both consoles will do good, hardware wise. They should both do good game wise. But as for Online and Price, Xbox wins, hands down.

Minor problem Ghetto. The PS3 footage in most cases wasn't pre-rendered. The most striking example being the Killzone footage.

That was pre-rendered. Killzone was the main thing pre-rendered. They said they "expect it to be like this when it is finished."
