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I guess I should keep playing my Dreamcast just because it happens to have better games, despite it being dead and outdated.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

    • Valve finally confirms Steam Machine prices, starts at $1049 for 512GB option

      The memory and nvme can be swapped and upgraded with standard parts. But the GPU cannot, which is the weakest part of the box. It's a dead product at these prices.

    • Apple and Tesla trade secrets reportedly exposed following a Tata Electronics cyberattack

      By Hamid Ganji · Posted

      Apple and Tesla trade secrets reportedly exposed following a Tata Electronics cyberattack by Hamid Ganji Image via Depositphotos.com Tata Electronics has confirmed that it detected a cybersecurity incident in some of its systems. The Indian company is a manufacturing partner of both Apple and Tesla, and the incident may have exposed some trade secrets belonging to the two American companies. The World Leaks ransomware group is said to be behind the attack, and it has reportedly posted up to 200,000 files on the dark web, including component designs and specification documents related to Apple and Tesla products. Tata Electronics told Reuters that its response protocols were deployed immediately and that the “incident has had no impact on our operations across businesses, which remain unaffected.” The ransomware group reportedly sent a ransom demand to Tata Electronics, while Apple has launched an investigation into the incident. World Leaks claims it stole more than 200,000 files totaling over 630GB from Tata Electronics. Some database files on the ransomware group’s website are titled "com.apple.factorydata," which could refer to Apple’s iPhone production operations in India. Moreover, some documents reportedly contain material specifications and quality inspection standards for iPhone circuit board components. However, Apple is not the only affected company. A folder found in the World Leaks database is titled "NV36 Chargeport Controller - North America," which may refer to Tesla Model Y components. Additionally, other files in the database reportedly contain drawings related to Tesla’s Project Highland, the internal codename for the EV maker’s updated Model 3 sedan. To support the authenticity of the stolen files, World Leaks has published documents containing footers that read: "This document contains proprietary and confidential information of Apple Inc." and "information contained herein is deemed confidential, proprietary, and a trade secret of Tesla Inc." Cybersecurity researcher Rajshekhar Rajaharia told Reuters that the database also contains emails, event logs spanning several years, and passport copies of employees, including foreign nationals. Both Tesla and Apple have declined to comment on the scale of the incident.
