I look down on such a thread because a search wasn't used, but the topic starter is new. Basically all it comes down to is games - which do you like more? PS2 has its great games: Final Fantasy series, Gran Turisom series, etc. XBox also has its greats: mainly Halo along with the others... I think both systems have great multiplayer setup (XBox Live and PS2's online service) except one thing I didn't like was that I had to pay $35 to connect 4 controllers. I really think Sony should have thought of the competition is was up against and just used 4 controller ports.

this isn't spam! geez

well i have all 3 and i like xbox the most (yeah im biased cuz i just got it)

+online play is amazing

+graphics are amazing

+good exclusives

+onlince content

+rare

-no EA online support

-BIG (the system itself)

gamecube is second

+++nintendo games!! ^_^

+nice graphics

+good loading times

+nice controller

-no dvd support :(

ps2 is unfortunately last

+some exclusives (not that many that i want)

+alright controller

-overrated

In my opinion it should go in this order.

1. SNES/NES - classics rule all

2. GB/GBC/GBA/GBA SP - more classics, and Pokemon. Pokemon is awsome no matter what anyone says.

3. Xbox - Microsoft is awsome.

4. PC - It's the freakin PC, where else can you get mountains of DOS games to work?! and PS just doesn't do

justice to Descent, even thought i never played it. I'm hopin for a Descent 4. Descent is Doom awsome.

5. Any/Alll Sega systems now gets listed starting with the Dreamcast.

5. GameCube - Anything made by Nintendo should just be considered as good. Rarely, if ever, bad. Often

awsome. This should really be right after the PC.

6. Anything else.

7. PS/PSX/PS2 - I'm sorry, but the playstation controller is so very annoying to me, and i just can't find all that many good games on it, despite its mountains and mountains of games. I've heard of nothing more than Final Fantasy (insert number(s) ), GTA 3 (now on xbox, so it don't matter), and i guess Resident Evil series and Gran Turismo. I'll battle GT with Project Gotham Racing 2, and RalliSport Challenge 2(coming soon), both for Xbox, Resident Evil with Eternal Darkness for the GC, and Final Fantasy with Fable.

Xbox is gonna have a awsome 2004, and here's why- Halo 2, Fable, RalliSport Challenge 2, Full Spectrum Warrior, Splinter Cell: Pandora Tommorrow (Think this one is xbox only, live play, now if only i had cable internet), True Fantasy Online (that mmorpg by microsoft using cell-shading, should be cool, i hope.), The Movies, B.C., StarCraft Ghost (not sure, but this one is probably multi-platform, PS2 gets lucky) . Any game made by Lionhead (Peter Molyneux) or one of their satellite studios(i.e. Fable, The Movies, B.C.) will be awsome. Just plain awsome. PC gets Half-Life 2, DOOM 3, and if we're lucky Black & White 2. Get to be god again. We will probably see a number of MMORPGs come out, hopefully World of WarCraft. And i guess Pokemon Collesseum is just gonna make the GC this year. PS2, bah, i don't give a darn for PS2.

I voted for Xbox just because i spend most of my time with Halo. SNES would have been my next vote. Super Mario All-Stars is just awsome. Needs to be made for the next Nintendo system, but have every mario/luigi/wario game EVER made. That would be so freaking awsome. It would just make the system. Every Mario party, every Mario racing game, Gmae & Watch, ever Mario platformer, mario tennis, mario golf, everything. NES/SNES/GC/GB/GBC/GBA- anything mario/wario/luigi/waluigi should be stuffed into one (or two) packed discs. Along with a brand new mario platformer, this would just make the system. Too much ranting. Way too much.
