My gamertag is Chiefownsj00
Someone friend request me.

Oh, I will want to know your opinion. Xbox or Playstation 2?
I'm doing something for school and it is a debate.

Please try to reply to the poll.

Thanks and welcome back guys.

Personally, I'm more of a fan of PS2. Don't give me any of that "Oh hax, Xbox is technically superior!!1" stuff either, because all the technology packed in the thing doesn't do a damn bit of good if I don't like the games on it. And I don't. The only games I like on X Box are re-releases of good PS2 games. I like survival horror, and RPG's, and Xbox doesn't have them, and if it does, they're just re released from a PS2 game. Like the silent hill games they tossed onto Xbox...but the graphics engine in silent hill was designed for PS2, and the differences between it, and Xbox, make the xbox version look very....strange. Silent Hill is not meant to be bright and colorful like Halo!

I don't remember what happened last time, but don't feel like you have to set yourself up for abuse. Welcome. Enjoy. Let the past be the past.

And I have no idea why I would want to lock this thread based on your initial post. Discuss away.

I assume it's because a thread that's about xbox versus ps2 just screams mindless console flamewar.

I'd vote either if there was a neither option, but with the current choice I say PS2. It has most of the Bemani, though I don't actually own a PS2.

My PS2 died. My Xbox hasn't. So in a battle to the death, Xbox wins (at least it did for me).

Gamecube wins

Playstation 2 has the most games I like, though.

I play Live. Mostly Halo 2, but some Madden 2005.

TrendyOsprey is my GT.

I like the PS2 for the games, mostly..but I like the xbox because you can listen to your music while you play in some games, and xbox live is a great idea, and I like the games that are xbox-only, so I'm with the xbox side.

My xbl gamertag is "UndeadAlchemist" though I don't play much.

And no one's mentioned that the Xbox controller is better suited as melee weapon than a console controller... It's like trying to play games on a brick. I'll stick with my PS2. Simple, easy to use, and I can reach ever single button without having to contort my hand. How it should be.

Sin... what button can you not reach on a Xbox controller without contorting your hand?..... (unless if you are talking about the old controllers that were about the size of the PS2.... ) personally i think they are more comfortable than the PS2 ones... because of how the handles are shaped... my fingers curve around it very comfortably when with the PS2 ones it is practicly a cylinder and if i have my hands around that for too long it starts to hurt...

oh and nice vid there Orange! lol

I suppose it depends on the shape of your hands. I have really big hands, and it just feels wrong when I hold the Xbox controller, and everytime I try to hit the little black/white buttons, I miss and hit something else. I don't like the Gamecube controller either, so it's not just a gripe about the Xbox alone.
that, and the Xbox has yet to get an exclusive game I like. In my book, the gamecube has a 1 up on Xbox because of the resident evil games, so I'd buy a gamecube before an Xbox.

!!!11!one

I know this thing that has insane graphics, thousands of games, and you can play online for free!! OMG! what is it you say? o did I mention you can do allot more than play games? wat is it?

A COMPUTER!!

*expects slap in face*

sorry I just had to say that. Im tired of kids in my school try to to tell me that there xbox is faster and better than my computer. It angers me RAWR!

Yes, Potter is right. No console can beat a computers speed, or graphics for that matter. You don't need to be slapped in the face. The kids at your school do.

Look at CounterStrike for Xbox.
Compared to
CounterStrike for computer.

Nuff said.
