i was going to make a purchase for a new game system. i already have a gamecube. so the choice would be either xbox or playstation2

i've heard that the 3rd playstation is coming out a year or so from now. if thats the case, i dont want to get a ps2 only for a new one to come out shortly after. but i do want to check out the new vice city.
thats the main reason i want one.
now xbox has the GTA 2/3 set, star wars KOTOR, and some other games that look cool.

i dont know. any suggestions?

PS2
And get:
Gran Turismo 4

itll last you a good couple months, its the best racing game ever. Plus gta, but you can get that for the computer. If you have a decent computer i would suggest upgrading that more than buying a new system, you could probably get a nice video and sound card for your computer with that money, and computer games are alot better and easier to set up online.

If your into 1st person shooters get and xbox and pick up Halo. Halo 2 should be coming out sometime this year(finally) and I believe its xbox live. KOTOR is a great game as well

Xbox, especially if you have broadband for live. Also all the good PS2 games are going to get ported to Xbox anyway. Vice City, GTA3, MGS2. Don't listen to what Rockstar and Koonami says either, MGS3 and San Andreas are coming to Xbox too.

Halo 2 :)

ps2. more selection and the current rumor is for the ps2 to last until 2010. X-Box 2 is rumored for 2006.

there are very few x-box exclusive games that are worth it. Halo is Mac, PC or XBox. SW:KOTOR is also on the pc. It really just leaves you Ninja Gaiden as an exclusive. And Halo 2 will appear on the PC eventually as well.

GTA3 & Vice City are PC, PS2 and XBox, but you could try playing the PC version through an emulator on your mac.

the ps2 could very well have new games up til 2010, but no one will give a shit shortly after the ps3 comes out.

halo and kotor on the pc are resource HOGS. whorehay doesnt sound like he's got a pc. and if you're waiting for halo 2 on the pc, it could easily be a 2 year wait. ninja gaiden alone is worth the price of the console. theres also project gotham racing 2 and crimson skies.

It almost doesn't really matter anymore. Most games come out on more than one system. I wanted Manhunt but it was only on PS2 now it's coming out for X-Box.

I have both PS2 and X-Box and I have to say I am partial to X-Box. X-Box saves all my games on the hard drive, games load faster the graphics seem better to me and if I could only keep one it would be the X-Box.

i've got an athlon 2100, 1gig ram, 9700pro, and in some parts of halo, i cant get a consistent 30fps@1024x768 with shadows and decals turned off. and this is all with jaggies. for a 2 year old game, thats just ridiculous. the lighting and shaders are great, but i'd gladly sacrifice that for sharper textures and smoother framerates.

did you get the 1.3 patch for kotor?

square enix will never port any of its games to xbox. ps2 should be your choice. in my opinion all the sports games play best on ps2 cimply because of the controller. you can get the controller adapter for xbox but i have had difficulty with those. if you're into fps xbox has halo, but who cares when you already have the greatest fps ever in metroid prime on cube, and prime 2 is coming out soon for cube as well.

The X-Box is so huge I don't need an apartment. I can just move into an XBox. Actually, the Cube's size is perfect. When I first got my cube, I used to pack it up and bring it over to my gf's all the time. Can't do that with the X.

If you like RPGs, what is there for the XBox, besides KOTOR?

jon, what square shooters, fighters, and tactical games do you, or anyone else, really give a shit about? drakengard's a sorry-ass panzer dragoon/dynasty warriors clone. no critics were singing the praises of the last square fighter, whatever the fuck it was.

the xbox is lacking in rpg's, no doubt. other than kotor, theres morrowind, which is an rpg in the truest sense of the word. fable looks great too. i'll take those 3 over ALL the cookie-cutter japanese crap on the ps2. those games were cool when i was a kid, but apparently thats still their target market.

Gotta love the threads that amude me and infuriate others.

In my opinion; it's comparing apples and cigars.

They're different; like different guitars; some swear by the Strat, some by the Les Paul; some will argue the guitars are essentially the same thing, others will scream from the tops of tables that they are so utterly different; that the 'other' is literally unplayable.

Now you can argue all the graphics, speed, sound, customization, linkability; but in the end?

Shit my PS2 sits idle gather dust while I'm trying to remember all the old cheats for Super Mario 3 for Game Boy Advance.

And I will argue for GBA. None of the above are much help in stop dead traffic, waiting for appointments, and unless you have your X-Box near a toilet; the GBA beats all of them in a Most Imortant feature for me: Things you can do while Dropping a Deuce.

And YES I know where to find the SM3 cheats. For me, the real fun is to try to remember them.

you may thing ff's dont have good storylines but youre wrong. its that simple. you may not like them thats fuckin fine, but every video game mag and website rates ff's as the best rpg franchise of ALL TIME!!! and then you're gonna say their morons. everyone cant be wrong. gamepro even said ff7 'may be the greatest game of all time' and id you to tell me the company that consistantly put out graphics that are equal to square. cause they put out xbox graphics with ps2 hardware. that is a miracle my friend. their in depath magic systems (with maybe the exception of ff8) keep tons of strategy in game. lets not even get into the numerous sidequests, one could spend at least 10 hours in gold saucer alone. and capturing beasts in ffx is a task unto itself.

and dont ever talk shit about ff scores, they have never gotten less than a perfect score in anything video game related.

and about that shitty pop tune, thats a jap tune. its not squares fault that the japs like that music.

square creates the best games ever and you refuse to admit. fine thats on you. but i cna find tons of video game reviews from tons of video game webistes and mags taht all say square makes the best rpgs ever.

the point he's missing is that the FF series are VERY Japanese. If you aren't into Japanese culture at all, then you're not going to like FF games, it's that simple.

Square produced what is probably my favorite game for the PS2 - Kingdom Hearts. Yes, it was big on the disney, but it was an overall fun game with great sound, video, controls, etc.

"never less than a perfect score"? you know what perfect MEANS? 5 out of 5, 10 out of 10, 100 out of 100. the last square game to get a score close to that was chrono cross. that game deserved it. its also 4 years old.

square could've done without the "jap tune" and would've sold just as much. ff6 didnt have shitty music, and THATS the best game in the series. and that was 10 years ago. i wouldnt wipe my ass with gamepro, but its clear now why you're so misinformed.

"square makes the best games ever". thats rich. they didnt even make the best rpg last year. if you knew anything about games outside of square and ps2, you'd know the best rpg's dont even come from japan. but your head's still stuck in the 90's and you dont seem to have a computer for anything other than bad message board posts.

and if you still think square writes good stories, i can pull a ton of awful movie reviews and a pathetic box office return for you. and if after all that you STILL think square's good, i'll get you fitted for a football helmet and bib.

so bad plots is inherent in japanese culture? i wouldnt even say bad music is either. they've got good and bad musicians there, just like we do. but i dont think our developers and publishers use bad music to sell a game.

you dont necessarily have to be into japanese culture to like ff games. not the old ones anyway. the pre-ps1 games all had a fantasy theme, and thats western. and i've already square was great during the 8 and 16-bit days.

I'm not going to say Suare gets "perfect scores" but according to gamerankings.com (which composites all major sources)

Chrono Cross: 92.4%
Chrono Trigger: 93.4%

Final Fantasies (US numbering)
2: 87.8%
3: 93.1%
7: 93.5%
8: 74.9%
9: 92.6%
10: 91.1%
10-2: 86.3%
11: 86.2%

Kingdom Hearts: 87.0%

I'm not saying every game Square puts out is great (hell, The Bouncer was a PS2 launch title and how many people actually bought it), but they do make good story games, as witnessed above. Plus they have the SaGa, Star Ocean, Mana, and Parasite Eve franchises.

way to backtrack there. first their scores are "perfect". then they're the scores for the video and the soundtrack. and then they turn to 9's and 4.5's, hardly perfect.

we werent talking just about square's games. we're talking about the writing in total. the creative team for the movie's the same as the games. paul o's great on the radio, but he also considered A.I. one of the greatest movies ever made.

phix, I think of the Tactics as seperate franchises because they're not RPGS. I also left out Mystic Quest and the FF ADventures and Legends.

FF Tactics: 84.9%
FF Tactics Advance: 87.3%

And the movie was written by different people than the game writers. The initial story was by the same person who conceived the FF games, but the actual writing was by others. Square opened an entire new division in Hawaii to do the movie, then closed it after the movie.

If you want something good from the movie division, check out Flight of the Osirus from the Animatrix.

the scores show its not even square's best series. they've milked the shit out of it, and ever since square used cd's, they've sold their games on the cg and ill-written drama rather than the actual gameplay. the main character for ff12 looks like a girl, and i'll bet he'll act like one too.

Bioware has produced 10 games. Only 1 has been on X-Box so far. About half of those have appeared on consoles (PS1, PS2, Dreamcast). Bioware has 2 games in development, Jade Empire has been announced as XBox/PC and the other is an unannounced PC only title.

Don't oversell your console as the platform for RPGs with only 1 title. PC has always been THE platform for the best rpgs, hands down.

And Knicks, PM2 looks cool. I should pick up PM1 for my N64 one day.

ill agree with that, but when you're running on an amd athlon, have a whopping 20 gig harddrive (most of which is tied up with music), and 96 mb of memory it limits what games you can play. i dotn even want to mention my video card and my lack of sound card.

and most of the cash from work goes to beer and weed. so im not getting a new comp anytime soon. playstation2 and cube are my primary gaming sources.

dont waste your time and/or money. i did that whole thing, i bought a used one, exchanged it for a another used one, that one worked for a while and then it just crapped out on me. just buy a brand new onepay that extra $30 and you can even get one with the network adapter and a game for $150. oh and it was eb that i bought the used ones from.

only game that I've been waiting for is Fable. But PS2 can occupy my time until then and after.

I'm contemplating buying an X-Box (again) and teh only games that I would really want for it are Fable and Ninja Gaiden.

i was thinking about getting an xbox too. I really want halo 2 but Fable and Ninja Gaiden sound like good reasons to me.

Halo 2 will be on the pc eventually, so I can wait. Besides, can it really stand up to Doom3?

if i were you guys id get an xbox because i think itll stick around a bit longer than the ps2, being that ps3 is nearing. also, the xbox is more powerful and provides better games. im begining to wonder about selling my ps2 for one right now

"X-Box Next" is already being prepared and should be out around the time of the PS3. "Nintendo Revolution" is the only machine already being confirmed for E3 next May.

I got a Cube and a PS2. Both are great, and only now am I considering getting an XBox for KOTOR 2 (my only PC now is a laptop) and Fable. Fable could be the mother of all games.

And the GTAs? Forget it. Poor blocky N64 visuals, clunky control, and a camera that's everywhere but where you want it? All so I can run around a digital city, run over pedestrians, and kill hookers? Nah, even that shit gets old after a while.
