Definately PC... great games, and the hardware advances as the games do, so you never have to buy a new system or get stuck with sub-par stuff, you can change whatever you want to fit your tastes. So the power and the customization ability does it for me.

I choose Microsoft XBox after playing the field some.. I've tried gamecube but it's overall graphic quality didn't impress me but then I tried Playstation 2 and bought one.. After having it for a while and suffering in 480i Widescreen mode and possibily progressive at the best I decided to try XBOX after trying it at a friends house. So like I said, I chose Microsoft XBOX and I chose it because it's high quality graphics and HDTV support in 480p/720p/1080i and Widescreen mode also due to the fact you can modify and have a huge hard drive to store backups of your games.. you buy at blockbuster. :devil:

XBOX sh*ts all over the PS2, and GC. They dont stand a chance against it. XBOX is gonna rule the world. If you buy anything but an XBOX you suck. Because XBOX has great games. The graphics on the XBOX are awesome. Did I mention that you should buy an XBOX and if you sont you suck? There are NO GOOD GAMES on the PS2 and GC. All other consoles that came before the XBOX should be burned. Even when the PS3 comes out the XBOX will be better, because the XBOX rules! XBOX ALL THE WAY!

You can't seriously mean that. Maybe you haven't looked hard enough. :rolleyes:

And by your idea I guess I should keep playing my Dreamcast just because it happens to have better games, despite it being dead and outdated. :whistle:

EDIT TO CLARIFY: I was not serious on my first post, I just did the fan boys job for them.

My honest opinion is that XBOX is better. I feel the PS2 was rushed out because the PS1 was such a success. At the time Sony were able to put much better technology into the PS2, yet they didnt. The Dreamcast which had been out for over a year before PS2 had much better texture compression and more texture memory, amongst other things (EDIT: DC Also had full-scene anti-aliasing, PS2 dont even have that).

EDIT: I think the DC was better then PS2 any day.

As for the GC unfortunatley it didnt take off, it is a great system, but Nintendo relied too much on loyalty, and it didnt work. Sure all the Nintendo fan boys bought GC's but unfortunatley at the time of release Nintendo fan boys were already a monority and they didnt win many new customers, all Nintendo has done really is isolate Nin fan boys even more. I hope Nin gets it right next time, I'd hate to see them go the way of Sega.

XBOX plays DVD's, has a hard drive, you can have custom soundtracks. MS did their research and built a system for gamers. Whats more, the XBOX is more powerfull, has more features, yet sells for the same or less then the PS2. Do the maths. Are you goign to buy a system which will be superceeded by the PS3 shortly, or will you buy a system which ihas more features yet sells for less?

Sorry I'll correct myself this thread is just more suited to be.. He says XBOX vs PS2 in the title but puts Gamecube in the Poll? :huh:

Yes while the title reflects unprofessionalism if this is going to be "the definite thread".. I'd like to keep it professional.

Let's also not argue okay? Just vote and state your reasons.. Back on topic please.

Also @ Kramitman.. Could you and anyone in the future please give reasons to support your choice.. I.E- "The XBOX has better graphics in my opinon.."

Thanks :cool:

      Free Software Foundation Europe pushes EU to force Google to allow AI uninstalls on Android by Paul Hill Credit: Pexels Users should be able to fully uninstall AI-based features from Android devices and be able to access interoperability functions, free from Google’s verification requirements, the European Commission has heard as part of an Android interoperability consultation under the Digital Markets Act. These measures were proposed by the Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE) last week when it submitted its documentation. The FSFE noted that Google had started silently installing AI models without telling users. It noted that the EU’s DMA requires companies like Google to allow users to uninstall pre-loaded software from their devices, but in the case of the AI models Google is installing, they reinstall if you delete them, contravening the DMA. To get Google back under control, the FSFE has told the European Commission that there needs to be improvements within the Android Open Source Project (AOSP). First, it said that users should be able to fully remove pre-loaded AI components from their devices, with companies being prohibited from silently reinstalling or reactivating them. Second, access to Android interoperability features should not be contingent on registration, authorization, or contractual relationships with Google. This pertains to Google’s attempt to force developers to register with Google, even to publish apps to alternative app stores like F-Droid. Discussing its submission, Lucas Lasota, FSFE Legal Programme Manager, said: Google is planning to roll out its Android Developer Certification in September 2026. This will force every Android app developer to register with Google before their software can be installed on certified Android devices, but it should affect those who have removed Google Apps from their device. The program is controversial because it entails the signing of contracts and payment of account fees to Google, as well as the handing over of the identities of developers. It said: The FSFE said that if the Commission’s draft measures remain unchanged, then Google will be allowed to make developers verify their identity. The FSFE believes that asking developers to register is contrary to the text and spirit of the law. In summary, the FSFE has told the Commission that no developer should need a Google account, a Play Store presence, or any agreement with Google to access Android’s interoperability features.
