in my opinion PS2 has more variety of games and several that are a necessity to me. (such as GTA3) However, games that are made for both platforms will almost always be better on xbox.

Xbox will total the PS2 version and has many exclusive games and ones to come in the future. Also, to totally revolutionise gaming for consoles, "XBOX LIVE" is due to release! This will allow you to speak and talk to your mates while playing on-line (Broadband of course) and will be very cheap!!! :rockman:

C'mon guys, Xbox has HAAAAAAALLLOOOOOOooooooooooooooooo!!!! :rockman: AND ALSO HALO 2 coming next year...I think, which BLOWS HALO AWAY!!!!!! (so I heard in both gameplay AND graphics...and I've seen the graphics)!

PS2 technology is out of date, but still doing VEEEEEEERY well!!!! :rockman:

My PERSONAL choice would be XBOX, not cause I just own one full stop, but I had a decision to make just like you and picked XBOX!

Tenacius D Rules!!!!!

by the way, ps2 is one year older than the xbox which is why is a bit more outdated, there are great games for both systems, and if you like online play, you dont have to buy any adaptors for the xbox, because it comes with a hard drive and network card, while for ps2 you have to buy memory cards, hard drive and the internet conection.
I had the same decision and decided on an xbox, but you can check on different gaming sites and see what games are there for both and besides.. splinter cell is coming out..woo hoo..

If you are looking at the long-term, it seems obvious that your choice should be the Xbox.

The first argument many will come up with is that the PS2 has a bigger game library. In reality, the Xbox game library is quickly gaining parity with the PS2 game library. And don't forget that quantity does not necessarily mean quality. There are a boatload of high-caliber games coming out this Christmas season for the Xbox and a lot of them are out right now or will be within the next couple weeks or so:

- Splinter Cell (the latest Official Xbox Magazine has a demo disc)
- Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance
- Ghost Recon (Xbox Live!)
- Unreal Championship (Xbox Live!)
- MechAssault (Xbox Live!)

All of these games are getting great reviews across the board. And there are more coming. Of course, all the sports titles are there too, and pretty much without exception, they all look better on Xbox.

- FIFA 2003 and the rest of EA's line (no Xbox Live support though... bums :-/ )
- NBA 2K3 (Xbox Live!)
- NHL 2K3 (Xbox Live!)
- NFL 2K3 (Xbox Live!)
- NFL Fever 2003 (Xbox Live!)

Next year there will be some great sports titles as well. Microsoft is coming out with MLB Inside Pitch (baseball, early '03 - Live?), Top Spin (tennis, Live-enabled - sweet!) and a soccer game in fall '03 (also Live-enabled).

Don't discount the value of online play to the Xbox. I assure you that Xbox Live is amazing. The PS2 online experience has nothing on Live (I've been on the public Live beta since the first round).

Of course, I'm not saying the PS2 is a bad console - that's not true and everybody knows that. But if you are looking for the best platform and the most bang for your buck in the coming years, the Xbox should be no-brainer.

I am a Ps2 owner and so far I have had no complaints....although the guys are right...the XBOX has more capabilities and will be better to get if you are looking for something now(I bought mine in Nov. of 2000)It is still gonna be a while till PS3 will come out (2005-6)so until then..go with the XBOX (I just wish it had ps2 like controllers.the best controllers ever made no debate!!!!!)

And we played the first thing that came to our heads,
Just so happened to be,
The Best Song in the World, it was The Best Song in the World.

Look into my eyes and it's easy to see
One and one make two, two and one make three,
It was destiny.
