It's not so much expensive as the PS2 for me (belgium) and the games (55euros)are not to expencive too...

But it's long time to wait

well, the Xbox HAS got a DVD player...INCLUDED

let's compare prices...
Xbox: £300
PS2: (at launch) £300 (i think)
PS2 DVD player: more than nothing

therefore:
Xbox inc. DVD player = £300
PS2 inc. DVD player = more than £300


and since the PS2 is expandable (ie. you can add bits to it), it will suffer from the same things as PC games do...

I don't think I can elaborate on Pinky's point . Anyhoo, I just want to say that you Europeans are taking everything really well. I was whining when XBOX got pushed back a week, but...Oh well. You should all buy the 'BOX. I know it'll be a whole lotta $$$, but I think it'll be worth it.
