    I personaly have a PS2, but will be trading it in for an X BOX. X has much better graphics/speed. At first, ps2 had all the good games, but x box is coming out with just as many, and better ones

    I plan to play golf, Knockout Kings, Gran Tourismo, Mortal Kombat and the like. I suppose that these games are readily available for both consoles.

    I picked PS2, cuz I love my Final Fantasy! But the XBox has better features like, inboard memory so you don't have to always have a memory card, and it has better DVD controls.

    Stick to ps2. The next xbox (xbox 2) will use a 64 bit G5 processor (same processor Apple uses) and the games will not be backward compatible with the Intel based Xbox 1.

    Yeah, but think of it this way, how often do u use the ps1 games on ur PS2, im sure never... By that time who cares...

    I love x box, i got it the day it came out, I love the thing, only reason i dont play it ever is because its hooked up to the tv in my truck and i just rather it sit in their then my house becuase i bull shhhit enough on the computer, video games are a complete other realm of distractions if u know what i mean...

    BUt the graphics and capibilities are just by far supperior to PS2

    So you don't care that the amount of money you've invested in Xbox software and that it won't play on the Xbox 2? At least Sony has said PS2 games will play on the PS3.

    From what I hear. Microsoft didn't like that people could hack the Xbox and get windows to run on it. That's why they're switching to the G5 processor. When it comes out, I wonder if someone will come up with a hack to run OS X.

    ps3

    Since the official unveiling of the PlayStation 2, Sony has occasionally alluded to the development of the console's successor. During a keynote speech given around the time of the PS2 unveiling, Shinichi Okomoto, senior vice president of R&D at SCEI, said that the company has already begun research on the PlayStation 3, with hopes of making the next PlayStation 1,000 times as powerful as the PlayStation 2. Around the same time, Ken Kutaragi, CEO of Sony Computer Entertainment, said that he already has specific plans for developing advanced graphics chips for the next PlayStation console. Further information regarding the PlayStation 3 has been brought to light in an article in the November issue of Scientific American magazine. Although the scientific community may be familiar with some of the information in the publication, it comes as news to the gaming community.

    In the article covering various aspects of digital entertainment, Ken Kutaragi speaks further on the PlayStation 3. According to Kutaragi, the PlayStation and computer entertainment division will serve as the drivers for the entire parent company. With the PlayStation 3, Sony hopes to merge content from its other divisions, such as Sony pictures and Sony music, by establishing a direct chain of distribution and by having the PlayStation 3 serve as the platform hub. Additionally, Sony's plans for the PS3 include online shopping functions, online banking, and other interactive Internet services. Naturally, some of these functions could be introduced to the mass market with the PlayStation 2, but Sony's digital convergence plans for the PS3 seem to be on a larger scale.

    With the PlayStation 2 in relative infancy, specific details regarding its successor won't be revealed for some time. However, it is interesting to note Sony's interests in leveraging its other divisions by further proliferating the PlayStation brand in the mass market

    Valid arguments...but here is the thing...my wife just bought the Xbox and gave it to me for V-day. I have been playing it, and it is pretty cool. I just ordered a couple of games for it, but I guess I could take the Box back for a refund....and pawn off the games.

    How come all of you waited until after I got theis darn thing before responding?
