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.

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.

      If you don't care to read what I said, then you prove my point. Maybe written media is beyond your attention span. Titles are not summaries my friend.

      Nobody asked... in fact, I said "I don't care about political leanings"

      TLDR. Here is a far better title (just a basic example): Windows 11 26H2 to allow disabling Web search results

      There is nothing wrong with this title. You have completely missed the plot when it comes to "clickbait." The issue was never that a title tries to entice you to click, that is how titles have worked for over 100 years. The issue is when the title subverts expectations, getting you to click expecting something that isn't there. The classic clickbait example is "Boyfriend caught cheating, what happens next will shock you," then what happened next is the girlfriend was upset...which is probably the least shocking outcome imaginable. If sounds like what you want is for the titles to be a collection of 10-word summaries that you can skim, get the just of the story, and only click if you want more details. That is not, never has been, and never will be what titles are. You can go all the way back to print newspapers during the great depression and see the same thing. The newspaper was locked in a vending machine, all you can see is the headline, you choose to put in 5¢ to buy the paper and read the rest if you want. Those headlines were written in a way to sell the paper, not just to provide a summery. Here are two actual headlines from that time, "Wall Street Lays an Egg," or "Stocks Hit Bottom?" Maybe you'd say something like "it was wrong then and it's still wrong now." Okay, fine opinion to have, but it isn't like Neowin is doing something unjurnalistic, they are just following the age-old standards for written media.
