skydyvr 0 #7 December 24, 2003 Playstation = wider selection of games XBox = better on-line gaming opportunity Either = can't lose, they're both great . . =(_8^(1) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeremyneas 0 #8 December 24, 2003 Playstation gotsa XBox beat in the way of online gaming because Playstation just uses your existing internet provider...XBox makes you pay a monthly fee...crappy little microsoft squeezing dem dimes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeNReN 0 #9 December 24, 2003 The psx2 is my choice...mainly because it is backwards compatible....over 1000 psx1 games can be played on it....it can also be modified to play burned games. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeremyneas 0 #10 December 24, 2003 PS2 is easier to fit in your glovebox if your ever going to contend in a car show. The XBox is gi-hugest!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Swoopyswoop 0 #11 December 25, 2003 I got the playstation 2 for myself and my wife and I seem to like it better than xbox. The PS2 came capable to play dvd's and the xbox didnt. But it sems everywhere I go the ps2 games are a little more in abundance than the xbox. I also got the multiplayer expansion and the online pack to play head to head via internet. It really rocks "when I die, I want to go like my grandfather while im sleeping, not like the passengers riding in the car with me Swoopster A.S.S. #6 Future T.S.S holder Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FallingILweenie 0 #12 December 25, 2003 it would be a hard choice cuz i have more ps2 games, but have been playin the xbox more as of late. to play dvds on the xbox you need to buy the remote (which is about 30 bucks). i think it's worth it cuz the dvd player capabilities of the xbox are better than the ones on the ps2. the big strength of the ps2 in my opinion is that htere are a TON of great games you can get for 20 bucks as greatest hits. the xbox has some too, but not as much. tho looking at the next year or so i'd say xbox for one reason.... HALO 2!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jb092 0 #13 December 25, 2003 PS2 has way more games along with the fact you can play PS1 games on it. PS2 is also better because you can play DVD's with out buying extra stuff to make it work! What could possibly go wrong? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dropdeded 0 #14 December 25, 2003 So, which did you get??? (by the way, I think thet all suck. They cause cramps in the fingers and interefere with healthy sleep patterns) dropdeded------------------------------------------ The Dude Abides. - Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
