I think you are the moron for 3 reasons.

1. GC, and XBpx have, and can support better graphics than PS2. It's not an opinion it's fact.

2. It's your opinion that PS2 is the best, it's not fact.

3. You can't spell moron correctly.

Raven 05-04-2003 04:22 PM

wow theres some real stupid people

all i have to say is ps2 is the best xbox is so god damn lame
game cube graphics look the same as n64(I know many will disagree)

splinter cell is nothing but a ripp off of mgs, splinter cell has no story behind it at all!!!!!!!!

oh and lets not forget grand theft auto is only on ps2

all other game consules should go to hell!!!!!!!

cqb101 05-04-2003 04:25 PM

Actually GTA is for the PC also. Many people will disagree that GC graphics look like N64 graphics becuase you'de have to be blind to even think that.

Stefano 05-04-2003 04:46 PM

i agree. ps2 is good but just cause you like dosent mean you have to hate all the others. Calm down.

cqb101 05-04-2003 04:54 PM

Ya, calm down and learn how to spell.

Tokka-B 05-04-2003 05:13 PM

Gamecube is so much better....it is almost a joke to compare it to X-box....and PS2? Talk about mass-market crap games...

cqb101 05-04-2003 05:27 PM

I even know people who would never even touch a GC controller, and think that PS2 is god, say that GC has far superior graphics. And XBox just sucks. The controllers are way too big, and the only exclusive game it has that's any good, is Halo.

thats true i hate the xboxes damn controller

Dane E5R 05-04-2003 08:03 PM

I say that XBox is easily the best system. You can not judge a console by the amount of games it has, seeing as how that has nothing to do with the console itself. XBox is the most powerful by far of the next-gen systems. The sharpest, cleanest, and all around best graphics. Notice whenever they advertise a game that's available on all 3 platforms, they show XBox footage. It also has the best sound, and perhaps the best asset it has, the fact that you can save your games to system memory instead of shelling out cash on extra memory cards. The controller suits the system. It's size is necessary to suit all the buttons it has, it's definitely not a handicap, they're actually quite valuable. Plus it has internet access and a DVD player. Gamecube does not. It has four controller ports. PS2 does not. Also, Halo is certainly not the only nice game available, (even though it's enough. I have several friends that have bought the system JUST for Halo, myself included) What about Oddworld? Or Max Payne? Splinter Cell? I also have a Gamecube that I share with my brother, who happens to be a GC fan. He claimed many of the claims that you make about the GC being a better system, so to prove his point, he went and bought Mortal Kombat Deadly Alliance to compare against my copy...........Let's just say he never proved his point.

By the way, when Halo 2 comes out..All XBox bashers will have nothing left to say. :D

Are you for real?

Listen dude, I own PS2, XBOX, and GameCube. The PS2 is blown out of the water by the competition. Take a look at StarFox Adventures on GameCube and Panzer Dragoon Orta on the XBOX and then come and tell me that the PS2 is best.

Ps2 has some great games, but that's what happens when you have a year and a half head start in Japan.

Grand Theft Auto is the most overhyped piece of trash in any generation of videogaming. If any game should not exist, it is definately these two games. The graphics are putrid for next gen games. It is filled with game-crashing bugs, for example, in Vice City I tried burning rubber around a corner and my car got stuck on a park bench. There is no excuse for this game to have been pushed.

But then I forgot that gamers like you look to play the "cool and mature" games instead of playing good games.

Sorry, mate. Power is not in any way related to the graphics. Yes Xbox has some of the cleanest graphics on the market (have you seen the cube running in 480?), but that definately doesn't make it the most powerful system out there. The Nvidia graphics chip is the reason that the system seems the most powerful to you. The audio, though, is the best on the market.

If you are talking true power of the system, then the GameCube edges out the XBOX because of its processor. A 405MHz RISC processor translates to an 800Mhz CISC processor. The XBOX has a 700MHz CISC processor. Take a game like Rouge Leader and look at the graphics, the amount of enemy ships on screen at any one time, the real-time lighting that TIE Fighter blasts make on your X-Wing when they zoom over your ship, the way that you can command your troops. Truly, this is power.

Oh, believe me, they'll find something to bash about! :wink: Didn't you hear? It's impossible to simply admit you like a game nowadays.

Stone Ill 05-04-2003 08:36 PM

Blah blah blah...It's true X-Box has better graphics than GC and PS2 and that GC's are better than PS2. But that doesn't matter. It's just a console. Stop fighting, and get back to the game.

Tokka-B 05-04-2003 08:46 PM

Yea, once Super Smash Brothers Melee online comes out, no other game will be sold in that time frame. :lol:

Anyway, you truly are brave to defend the x-box that much, and I bow to your braveness. First of all the fact that it is pretty much a PC makes it eligable for game crashes, something not cool at all if playing an RPG or whatever...Gamecube does have internet access through broadband, I haven't tried it yet though...Ps2 has multitap, so it can play 4 people at the same time as well...X-box and Ps2 have ****** ass load times while Gamecube has zippo loading time. I already have a dvd player, why get another and pay money that I wouldn't need to...consoles are meant for games, not movies or songs. I have no problem with the Mortal Kombat for GC, the graphics for fatalities are just astonishing...the gameplay is perfect. Nintendo has been around so much longer, therefore having many more mascots and characters you remember from your childhood. X-box has ...???

Ninja Tiptup 05-04-2003 08:56 PM

It's a mute point because I'd say neither XBOX or Gamecube have shown their true potential yet. Metroid Prime 2 and Halo 2 will probably do that, but it's unliikely.

Gamecube has better games and design overall though.

PS2 is a great system, but you have to realize that it's OLD now. It's been old for quite some time. The graphics are good, but they will never be as good as what GCN can put out (and I suppose XBOX).

Where'd did TMNT on XBOX come from anyway? I was sure it was only for GCN, PS2, PC, and GBA. I'd prefer if it was. GCN needs something third party that you can't get on XBOX that is worth XBOX players time to check out.

Peanut 05-04-2003 09:10 PM

Boy do I hate fanboys. Even though I'm a Nintendo fanboy. Even as such I own all 3 consoles. PS2 I feel was a big waste of money. It's got nothing going for it at all. It's just a DVD player now that the Big N and X-Box are in the house. Nintendo IMO is the best of the three. X-Box doesn't have enough good first party games to compete with the all mighty god that is GCN. It's still very good though. As for the controllers, play with an S controller, it just completely destroys the debate about the big controllers. Currently I've begun to collect 3rd party multi-platform games on X-Box because it is IMO the best looking system. Keep in mind I don't have progressive scan for my GCN. GCN of course rules the roost because of the great first party games. Super Mario Sunshine, Super Smash Brothers: Melee, Animal Crossing (one of the most creative and addictive games to date) and of course The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker to name a few. I personally think Metroid Prime is over rated. I find the gameplay pretty bland with not much change in the pace of the game, even with the suit additions. If I were to rate the three out of 100 it would go as so:

3. Playstation2 - 60/100 (DVD player is useful and free unlike X-Box. Some good games but not enough first party support to keep an intrest. Thumbs down as far as game console goes. Last game purchased: Hot Shots Gold 3. Over half year ago.)

2. X-Box - 85/100 (Good graphics and sound. Most 3rd party games are of superior quality compared to other consoles. Large hard drive = no need for memory card. Ability to burn songs from cd to create custom soundtrack. Few good first party games, but the ones that count really really count *Halo*. Last game purchased: Kung Fu Chaos. 1 week ago.)

1. Gamecube - 95/100 (Good graphics and sound. The BEST first party support of all systems. Amazing exclusive games *Zelda, Mario* Very minimal load times. Very comfy controller. Did I mention the amazing exclusive games? Last game purchased: Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. 3 weeks ago.)

The Stryker 05-04-2003 11:13 PM

PS2-Good console but alittle over-rated now that every one is buying it to beat old ladies with a stick in GTA

GC-Awesome console best out of the three but too many people think that Gc is for "babies" and we should once again beat old ladies with sticks

Xbox-2nd best only because of the sound and graphic processor....the PS2 dvd player needs the volume all the way up >_<

Like cqb101 said before we're not talking about opinions but about facts! And it is a fact that PS2's graphics are totally inferior to X-Box and GC, what's just normal because the consol is a year older than the other two. I own a PS2 and a GC so (unlike you) I know what I'm talking about. Everything you thought must have been something like: "WHAT??? SOMEONE INSULTED MY BELOVED PS2???? I HAVE TO SAY SOMETHING NO MATTER HOW DUMB IT IS!!" So you said... something:
