Which one is better....and I mean really better. no crap about microsoft! ;) Which one is superior in terms of games ('cause xbox is technically better)? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Easy answer: Get both... ;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
smart ass! ;o) Anyone got a REAL suggestion? :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
emhm... someone is forgetting NINTENDO GAMECUBE, isn't it? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
My order of preference: 1. Nintendo GC 2. Sony PS2 3. Xbox |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've considered buying it too....but it doesn't have DVD and I have got no DVD player :-S |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, but this is my point of view. Nintendo GC is born only for play the videogames and i think it's the best. I miss DVD too, but I bought GAMECUBE 'cos i wanted the best consolle for play videogames and GC is the best, imo. Next time i'll buy a real dvd too. The GC games has a lot of creativity and fantasy more so ppl call all this... "The Nintendo difference" Anyway Playstation2 is much better than Xbox, imo. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
GC has only got a few good games so far (star wars, smash bros. melee and a few others, luigi's mansion) I would like to have PD Zero, Metroid Prime, Zelda etc. but it'll be a while before they are released... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
In this period, I'm playing with PIKMIN and it's an amazing game too. Then the 4 October i'm waiting for Supermario Bros sunshine. Don't forget RESIDENT EVIL, a scary but wonderful game. |

PC...... |
||||||||
|

|

hire out the machines and games you are interested in.. give them all a go.. the games are what you buy a machine for.. a stand alone dvd player is pretty cheap now.. or you could import the that can play dvds also .. |
||||||||

The best console is with no doubt Xbox. It is not the best one if you just buy your games in the store but if you get that "chip" or whatever you call it, then you will get the best game machine ever. BUt you will have to put all the components inside the machine yourself. not very easy but well worth it. It took about 5 hours to put all the components at the right place. You guys who have done the same thing with your old ps1 knows what im talking about. but this was 5 times harder. I meen come on. dvd, vcd, download every game you want from the internet and you can fill like 5-7 games saved into the actuall xbox. or burn them on rewritale cd-roms. Many of my friends has done that chip thing and they are more satisfied than ever. I dont think Microsoft likes it but we poor people without money...yes we like it a lot. ...fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
...and a even greater + is that you can play nes 64, nes 16 bit and alot of other games like arcade and others just like you do on your pc. the x box is a dream machine! |

I really like my PS2, Grand Theft Auto 3 is a great game to play when mates are round, its such a laugh And Silent Hill 2 is on it (Fucking amazing game) And you can play all the old Final Fantasy games on there including the new lush FF10 :) Love the avatar eXXailon i used to have Venom as my avatar but i changed it to me =) |

ps2 is better don't give more money to bill "child fucker" gates |
||||||||
|
|

|

AND lets not forget Metal Gear Solid 2 and the DVD player |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

I read somewhere ( certainly on /.) that you can run mame (this fabulous arcade emulator) on the Xbox -> So I would definitively buy this Xbox & load it with megs of old arcade games. Make sure first that my previous info is correct :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thats what im talking about.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
sorry I didn't read your post - your avatar makes me feel inconfortable :} But yeah - You can also run xmame with your PS2 linux kit - I'm not sure of that either. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
There is a DVD player version of the GC, look on liksang.com when it comes back online... |

PS2 has been on the scene for way longer than the XBOX.... so its backed up a fair catalog of games. Give the XBOX some time to catch up. I dont own any of the top 3 consoles these days :-/ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah its true but it depends on how much money youre willing to put out on games etc... if youre just in it for downloading games you should defenatly get an xbox. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"I dont own any of the top 3 consoles these days :-/" What do you think the DC is? ;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
raimons -> Have you seen a mame running on Xbox ? As I mentionned earlier I had this information from a bunch a geeky /.ers - you can't trust them they could sell their mother if it could help them to run linux on their toaster ! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Well... my top 3 of course ;-) Theres so much shit you can burn off onto CD and run on your DC :-D |
||||||||

My choice would be Playstation 2, heres why: The Xbox does have a *bit* better graphics for most games, but not all, there are lots of PS2 games that have just as good graphics, if not rivaling to be better. They will get better too, just like they did for ps1, remember those first games? Shitty graphics, the last of the ps1 games had a lot better graphics, game play and all that. So the ps2 will get better and better, so will the games. Already, the ps2, like the ps1 is known for its massive selection of amazing games, I myself own 8 games for the ps2, and by the end of this month I will have bought 3 more. It also depends on what games, or type of game, or even series you are interested in. Companies only release certain games on certain systems sometimes, like Nintendo runs the Resident Evil series only, and GTA3 and GTA3: vice city (the new grand theft auto this month! yay!). And the list goes on.... Its a bad question to ask which one is the best, but more which one you should like the most. I tried all three new systems (gamecube, xbox and I have owned a ps2 for a year). I enjoyed the ps2 the most, and I still do. There are so many good games to get. |

Hello Reflex, old chum. |

|
|

|
|
Hello, long time no see. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

Hmmm.....both the DVD-GameCube and the modified Xbox sound like music to my ears..... At this point I must confess I like the xbox games more (PS2 and GC fans cannot deny: Halo fucking rules!). On the other hand I've really enjoyed those typical N64 titles like Zelda and Perfect Dark and they will most certainly not be released for xbox or PS2.....Xbox and GC are in my top 2 at the moment I think I will give a good night's sleep |

|
*sighs* Decisions, decisions.......;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, I'm thinkin' I best off getting a PS2. I had SHITLOADS of life out of the PSX... and I know a source that can get me cheap....*ahem* backups for the PS2 aswell.... |

Microsoft owns RARE, the next Perfect Dark,banjo kazooie,conker are XBOX exclusive. gc is the best choice for me. theyre are so many great games out already and a lot more comin out heres the games im interested in\want to get: E : EXCLUSIVE TO GC -Wario World(E) -Resident Evil 0(E) -Resident Evil 4(E) -Metroid Prime(E) -Animal Crossing(out)(E) -Star Fox Adventures(out)(E) -Die Hard Vendetta(E maybe) -F Zero(E and arcade) -Zelda(E) -Mario Kart(online, maybe)(E) -Phantasy star5 online eps 1 and 2 (XBOX ALSO) -Soul Caliber 2(PS2,XBOX also) -Too Human(E) -XIII(ps2,xbox) -Virtua Fighter Quest(E maybe) -1080 White Storm(E) -Star Fox shooter(by Namco)(E,arcade) -Timesplitters 2(ps2,xbox) -Aggressive Inline(out)(ps2,xbox) -Medal of Honor Frontline(ps2,xbox) -Capcom vs snk 2 EO(out)(E, but its older version is on ps2) -007 Nightfire(xbox,ps2) -Cas Ra(unkown Capcom Game)(E) -Glass Rose(unkown capcom game)(unkonwn) -Project BG and E(E) these are all ones im interested in also if you only want a ps2 or xbox go for ps2 its much better. xbox isnt all that great to me and ps2 is ok, ill buy a ps2 when its real cheap and buy the few good titles such as mgs2, ico etc. and few good ps1 titles. |

oh and by the way Halo sucks im afraid. the single player is almost completely nonexistent(awful), multiplayer is not even that fun, I think, also it has godawful controls. this game did nothing to further develop the fps genre. Ill wait for doom3,unreal tourn2003\unreal2 and half life 2 to do that. |
||||||||

UT 2003 is already out as of yesterday. |

||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
dc is good system too, too bad it dropped like a fly |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
No, only demo reviews. The fuckers are either too lazy or too immersed in playing to write a review... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
only xbox game im intersted in and want badly is Unreal Championship, why is an unreal game exclusive to a console?!?! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
YEAH!!! damn right! Dreamcasts are the shit.... as of NOW! I'm fucking around with Dreamcast Emulation at the moment! :) I just a few moments ago was playing the PC version of Doom 2 (the .WAD file opened with a piece of software for the DC) on my Dreamcast, (dont select Quit to Dos... or it crashes the DC hehe) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah but dreamcast is still old. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It doesnt have to be new to be considered good or fun. Fuck, I still play Atari :-P ...thats 'relatively' old. ;-) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I prefer the PC because monitors are generally nicer than the TV, they're versatile, upgradable and there are lots of cheap games for it |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
hey Meho I found an Unreal review here it is: http://pc.ign.com/articles/372/372411p1.html they gave it a 9\10 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hey princo how do you do emulation on the dc? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
1. Burn DC emulators from the net & roms onto a CD. 2. Put it in your DC. 3. Play. |
||||||||

Gamecube is my fave... Nintendo just has this magic that Sony and Microsoft lack. Sega had the magic in the Genesis days... what this magic is, I'm not sure. But Mario, Metroid, Zelda... Nintendo is the be all and end all. |
