PS2, X-Box, Game Cube or PC
 
Which is your favorite?:D

Game Cube....
 
I voted for Game Cube, but i would have also voted for PC if i had the option...normally i play PC games, but yesterday i traded in my N64 and a bunch of games for a new Game Cube (got it for dirt cheap) and i think it's pretty cool, looks way better than PS2 (Xbox is just a computer).....

Gamecube!
 
I'm a big nintendo fan all the way, I've owned every one of their systems, except for Virtual Boy. Gamecube has/ will definately have better games in the near future, compared to Xbox... Xbox is horrible, it's just a run down version of a computer. My philosophy - if it has a hard drive, it's a computer. PS2 is great, my brother has one of them, but I'm for Nintendo and their great games. I can't wait for Metriod Prime and the Zelda game.

Check out my site here I'm needing some help on it

But Nintendo is and always will be the greatest!! En Taro Tassadar! - Raul

I too have always been a Nintendo lover. I grew up on the machine. However, I upgraded to Play Station when they first came out, and have been very pleased with it since, until now.... (I have been very unsuccessful at finding Worms in a store.) I look forward to getting a PS2 when I go to college!

PlayStation2
 
More games.
Games that are actually not aimed at the Pokemon crowd.
It's a DVD player.
It has a future!
Count me in!

now, this is a scary part. i've never owned a game system...until now that is. after years of begging, pleading, crying, etc., my parent's have finally caved in, and decided to buy me and my brothers a PS2 and some games, as a combined birthday/graduation (from middle and elementary school :p) gift. so, if the world ends tomorrow, we all know why ;)

XBOX!!!
 
I have a PS2 and XBOX and while the game quality is similar, and there are more titles on PS2, The XBOX looks the coolest in a rack of AV equipment and has the capability to output in High Def although I don't have any games that do that yet. So I sold the PS2. Both play DVD's but a dedicated progressive scan DVD player is better than either. It is a PC but hey it is a heck of a lot of power in a PC (with Hard Drive) for only $199

All video games are fun on a big screen with 5000 watts of audio power to shake the room ;)

i'm deffinatly a SEGA fan....but since they went third party, i have supported Nintendo. but now with the dawn of all my favorite super computers and 128mb video cards, and with 256mb on the way and looking amazing, i will have to say computers will eliminate consols very soon

PS2
 
i have always had nintendos, but last christmas i got a PS2...it's got a lot more games that i like and it's a DVD player. can't beat that. :-)

Ryan Dognaux 25-06-2002 15:13

Why Combine?
 
In my opinion, gaming systems should stick to what their names imply - games, not music nor DVDs. I mean it is cool that the PS2 and Xbox and play DVDs and music, but that's why I have a CD player and a DVD player ? I don't know anyone that actually uses the DVD function on their systems, not around here anyways.

Is anyone else excited for the Metroid Prime release?!?!?! Who would've thought... Metroid... a First Person shooter, but it looks awesome, can't wait!

And o' course Nintendo has Mario! Who can resist that crazy plumber??? Oh yeah Luigi too....
Also, I'm glad Nintendo now has the Resident Evil games (yes all of them heading to the gamecube including RE 2, RE 3, and Code Veronica). The remake is great and RE O is gonna be the greatest in a while, but RE 4 will top em all.

As long as you like any kind of system though, it's all good ^o^
Video Games Rule

This is the part where y'all think I'm spoiled or something.

Between my brother and I, we have NES, SNES, Genesis, Gameboy, Gameboy Color, Gameboy Advance, Playstation, Nintendo 64, Playstation 2, a Gamecube, and 3 PC's. I've done the video game thing for quite awhile, if you can't tell. I don't particularly like 'em much anymore, but each has its strong points.

Sony has the Twisted Metal series. Multiplayer vehicular combat is fun for all ages.

Nintendo has the 007 series of shooters. Again, multiplayed goodness. Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters Melee for Gamecube, too.

That's it. That's all I'm concerned about. Oh, yeah, and Roller Coaster Tycoon II for PC. Otherwise, quite mysteriously, I don't find them to all too enthralling anymore.

I wonder why that is. Perhaps I should go reflect or something.

Actually, I use my ps2 for dvd and music more then I use it to play games. Ps2 has a high definiation output cable, so Xbox isn't the only ones capable. Ps2 also has a optical digital output for sound. Not sure if the other 2 have that or not... Anyways, it was just darn cool playing MGS2 in Dolby Digital :D As for the Xbox... you can supposedly rip audio cd's onto it's hard drive. That would be kinda cool to have...

Matt Reiland 25-06-2002 17:30

Yep XBOX has optical audio out (When you buy the SVideo or Hidef pack) and you can rip CD's to the HD to play instead of the music in games which is kinda cool

the dvd function on ps2's crashes quite frequently, its rather funny to be watching american pie and see a complete screen dump because the ps2 crashed, or to be watching miss congieniality and see the video get 5 seconds ahead of the sound file....

Gamecube all the way! Gotta WAVEBIRD controller! WO-HO!
As for the PS2, the DVD feature does crash a lot, and somewhere around 20% of all PS2's can scratch games, cd's, and DVD's. You see, it uses magnets to hold the cd in place to read the info on the bottom. With such high speeds, the CD's and DVD's can move around and get scratched. Sony denies it, but Gamepro says it's a very large problem.

BTW, X-Box has the least future of all the counsuls, trust me.
