is it true there is a difference in the quality of the hardware between xbox and ps2 and gamecube? I've heard stories the ps2 has a shorter life-time, the xbox causes a lot of heat and the gamecube is the best only comparing the hardware. opinions? |

ps2 will last a long time if you don't throw it around or step on it. same with xbox. none of the consoles develop much heat... they all have very strong cooling-systems. The gamecube is NOT best if you count JUST the hardware... for that the Xbox is on top. However, the xbox doesn't have as many gadgets as the ps2 (usb + expansion bay and stuff like that...). |

PS2's die a lot. PS1's did in the beginning I remember. No idea about X-Boxes and Gamecubes, but I've heard both PS2 and XBox die if you use them to play DVD's a lot. |

Launch Xbox's (like mine) came with a faulty disc drive... and most of them have fucked up by now. I know mine has. I get ''dirty disc errors'' all the time... but my discs are perfectly fine. I've learned to cope with it, and save whnever possible. I could DDE at any second. Newer Xboxs are perfectly fine. I've had my PS2 since the start, and I watch ALL my DVDs on there... I've never had a problem. It's never froze, never got a DDE on it. But that's just my experience. Gamecube is nice and durable as well. They'll all last forever unless you stand on them to reach high places, play catch with them, spill chocolate milk all over them (I did that to my Gamecube, but the only thing that went wrong was a sticky open button), or drop them while carrying them around in a grocery bag (I did that to my PS2). I game a LOT and the only one that's had problems is my Xbox, and that's only because it's one of the horrible launch models (and I bought it used). |

Drop all three from a seventh-story flat, and you will have a definitive answer. |

the ps2's laser eye isn't built to last. supposedly after time the dvd portion just doesn't work anymore. |

It's not like they always die for sure, the majority probably work for a long time. But on the subject of sony disc products, I've had shit luck with the past 3 (discman, boombox, and cd burner) that all sucked ass, on top of what I've heard of PS2 and original PlayStations, i don't buy them anymore. |

Me and my friend both have PS2's. His is a first generation and its fucked up considerably. Mine is newer and it works fine. I've had more problems with the PS2 controllers than the actual PS2 itself. |

you can breathe on a dreamcast and it will break. |

i'm convinced the bonfire i made out of my sega dreamcast, saturn and genesis was more engaging than actually playing any of those systems. |

Tell me about it. My Dreamcast requires a heavy object to keep the disc lid from popping up... and that happened after just a month of use. I can't remember ever abusing it, or letting other people touch it at all. Dreamcast was OK. Sega fans are rabid about it, but I think they overestimate their little white box. Precious few AAA games on that system. But it did spawn the best line of hockey games out right now... I don't see how anybody could diss the Genesis. Crazytalk right there. Saturn was an epic failure, but I'm still planning to buy Shining Force 3 someday. |
