So, you are asking which system has the best games, right?

Okay, well PS2 has a huge fan base with very popular titles at their disposal. I own this one myself.

Gamecube is pretty good, but I don't think I'd ever buy it. It doesn't have enough exclusive games that interest me. Nintendo does have a good name though and have been around forever.

Xbox is by far the best system you can buy. It has the best features out there. Custom game soundtracks, Hard disk, the best DVD player in a system, and the Xbox Live is the easiest way to play online with friends. It even has the voice mic that changes the sound of your voice. The games are good as well. They have many titles to choose from. And a multiplatform game, such as The Two Towers, is better played on the Xbox. Xbox has the best graphics out of all the systems and loading times are getting faster and faster. I own this one.

IMO, I think that the PS2 has the best games. Generally that is. Because it has a lot of RPG games, and RPG is my favorite genre.

Although Xbox is slowly getting more RPGs which is a good thing.

Gamecube is more aimed at a younger audience. I don't own one at the moment though ... but I'll buy one when FF:Crystal Chronicles comes out (it was just released in Japan).

Gamecube is perfect for children, mainly because thats the audience it aims its games towards.

Although I do admit, I really enjoy the remake of the original resident evil on gamecube (one of my favorite games ever), and Rogue leader is a great game too.

PS2 has some good games, but when will they learn to have four controller slots , also I hate having to have a memory card just for saving games, and not to transport my save games to another system like Xbox. I am awaiting the game Kill Zone though, it looks to be a really solid and good FPS.

I will go along with saying Xbox is my favorite console. The sheer amount of hard drive space, save files take up only less than fifty to one hundred usually for memory. I personally like the controllers yes the big ones, because they work for me (I do own a small xbox controller also). Splinter Cell still looks the best on Xbox, the ported versions look too choppy. Halo, Morrowind, Splinter Cell, Munch, and so many other great games I own. Plus, my favorite game right now, and RPG Knights of the Old Republic. Xbox live has the best console online playing and content, and I will end with that.

Too many good things to say about Xbox.

Since PS2 is having its saving grace on X-Box also (GTAs, the main reason why I like PS2) theres really no need for me to stick with much support for it. Oddworld, Halo, and Gun Valyrie are all good. I'm going to get Morrowind and Crash around Christmas, along with (maybe) Shimue 2.

PS2 still has the Gran Turismos, but in 3 it took so darn long to save up money it got tiring. My faith has left for Spyro, so I won't be caring about that for Playstations. REs are getting kind of old, now. I can still play all of DDR, Beat Mania and Guitar Freaks on the original Playstation. Yah... not much interest for me.

Game Cube is decent, I s'pose. Super Smash Brothers Melee is darned fun, and... uh... Pikmin looked OK. And... well, Gamecube doesn't mave much stuff I like.

Thus, in conclusion, I like the X-Box best. Whoa.

Nah. Its the whole "hate Microsoft/Bill Gates" fad bandwagon thing. For some reason, its cool for Sony or Nintendo fanboys to hate the maker of the OS they're using.

All of the systems are great. Or at least good enough to warrant owning them.

The only clear-cut system loyalty I have is to the Xbox's Online Plan... which, in my opinion, is far superior to PS2's (which is just... mediocore) and just plan kicks the crap out GCN's online stuff. But you never know what the next year will bring.

I have a Game Cube, and I like it. Nintendo makes good games in my opinion. And, not only nintendo makes Game Cube games.

But there are very few Xbox games that look fun... I don't like racing and sports games...

Whoa! I gotta go to school. I am one minute past my leaving time for the buss!

Gamecube has a few good games on it, and is coming down in price regularly, so one day, after I buy an expensive digital video camera, I may look into one. Considering it is the only console getting a revamped version of Metal Gear Solid.

Playstation 2, in my opinion, has the best games, and selection. There are tonnes of games for it, and a lot of good ones. Thankfully, most of the ones I originally wanted it for (Metal Gear Solid 2, Grand Theft Auto) are going to go, or are already on Xbox. Unfortunately, I don't think Squaresoft (I don't think they are called that now, are they?) - makers of Final Fantasy - will be porting any games.

I like my Xbox. Finally. The fact of the matter is, Xbox is the best system, power wise. But when I first bought it, and got Munches Oddysee free, I realised what a screw-up I had made. All the games I wanted were on PS2. But thankfully, they then brought out MGS2: Substance, and now plan on GTA, for Xbox. So now I am happy with my puchase.
The obvious reason here most people like Xbox the best is because of MO.

Nads, your attempt to be cool/funny does not amuse me. Not only did your posts have no point to this topic that actually has a discussion, but it rude towards lindsey. She has done anything stupid yet.

Sadly though, you have.

My oldest brother in college owned the original PSX. My second brother (year older than me) and I both own Nintendo 64. He owns PS2, and I own Xbox. He mainly uses the computer for games, if he has the time. And my friend owns gamecube, so if I want to play it I will play on his gamecube.

Overall, I still think Xbox is the best out of the three.

Hello lindsey. I do think that the PS2 is the best system. All my favorite games are on there.

Gamecube just went down in price. MSRP=99.95$ or something like that. I never imagined it would go that low, but think of it this way........PS2 and Xbox can play DVD's and CD's while Gamecube only can play their cute little mini-discs. It should probably go further down in price!

It is a remake of Metal Gear Solid. It's called MGS: The Twin Snakes. Basically it is the same game as MGS, but with all the new moves and graphics of MGS2. With new cinematics and stuff as well.
