Hm.

Why buy something outdated?

I would suggest waiting for either a XBOX360 or PS3. (Maybe even the Revolution)

If your just playing for fun... I'd get the PS2. More games.

If u are gonna play Online Definitely 100 percent Xbox.

Xbox is the best cause with PS2 u have to buy memory cards which sucks but the Xbox ?has like a 40 Gig hardrive or somewhere in that range and u just save the games and dont have to worry bout feeling up the hard drive cause its impossible.

U can also download music into the Xbox and listen to it while u play.

Xbox Live also is by far the greatest online experience if u are into gaming online.

Xbox has better graphics, PS2 has a few more titles I suppose but if i had to choose one definitely Xbox.

My wife wants to buy one right now, tonight (who am I to say no).

But I have no idea about either one of them

Buying "outdated" isn't a big deal since our last video game was PS1.  Tongue

Xbox sounds like it may be better.

memory cards get expensive as hell dude, cause once they feel up u gotta either delete stuff or go buy new ones and u have kids who i assume are also gonna be playing it and Xbox is better all the way around just cause of the memory card issue.

some didnt like Xbox cause of the controller which use to be bulky as hell, but they sell the nice comfortable smaller controllers now.

Also a cool thing about Xbox is, say u have Xbox Live and u buy a game that has a bug in it or it has some kind of flaw.

Xbox releases patches and all u have to do is download the patch and the game is fixed and the bug is removed.

For instance I was a huge Golf player online and every month Xbox would invent new courses and u could pay like 5 bucks and download brand new courses if u wanted which made the replay value go even higher.

With PS2 if a game is flawed or something isnt quite right with it, u just have to live with it.

I think PS2 has better games.


Edit:

If you're a freak for sport games them get XBox, both are cool in their own ways.

No video game consoles are outdated for me.

You are gonna laugh but this will stay in the bedroom for the adults.............haha

I doubt we will be saving tons of games. It will probably be just her playing and not me too much.

I like the update patch thing too.

You can get older PS2 ones for like 20 bucks.

My favorite type of games are action/adventure.

I would say go for an Xbox .almost evry game on the ps2 that is good you can get on an xbox. plus you'll get better graphics.


Plus with the built in hard drive you can do so very cool hacks . ok

My husband has had a PS2 for years and has been happy with it.  My sister's kids play XBOX all day.  I haven't seen a big difference, but I'm not a game nut.

I don't know if this is true, but I heard the other day that the newest version of XBOX will not play the older games.

Hmm...It all sounds good.

I am no game nut by any means. This will probably be for me wife, who is not too picky either.

Looks like we won't get it tonight, but in the next day or so.

Virtually every game that comes out is available for the PS2 and XBox.? both systems have exclusive titles, but no titles ring a bell that are noteworthy for the PS2.? Halo is a very popular X-Box only title, but I've never played it and I doubt it's a game your family would enjoy (It's a multi-player shoot em up, reminiscent of doom.)? Like D said, the X-Box owns in terms of multi-player and online play; no one can argue otherwise.? Graphically the XBox is superior and there is no difference in price on games between the systems.? I own both systems and prefer the X-Box over the PS2.? However, I do feel that the PS2 is more controller friendly and more games do exist for the PS2, but not enough to give it a huge edge.? Most video games are straight garbabge and the PS2 just happens to have a lot more garbage games because of that.? However, you said that you have a PS1 and the PS2 will allow you to play all of your PS1 games on that system.? Also, Microsoft is no longer going to provide titles for the XBOX (but 3rd parties surely will) while Sony has an excellent reputation for sticking with their systems well after they've released the newer system.? Generally the XBox is viewed as an adult system while the PS2 is more in line with teenagers to young adults.? Regardless of what system you get, you'll be satisfied as they both essentially do the same thing.? IMO, for what it's worth, I'd go with the XBox but to each their own.

PS2 for the massive game library. Xbox has hardly anything worth playing. Plus do you really wanna support Bill Gates?

Well since your just buying causual..

I would highly suggest a PS2. Biggest library, support, ect. Memory cards are not at all a huge deal.

Xbox is also exellent. Halo 2 cannot be beat.

Which ever one you buy you will be satisfied with.

Xbox = great sports titles, Halo 2, best online interface (for $$!)

PS2 = GTA, Metal Gear Solid 3, great 3rd party support.

If you get a modded XBox you can watch videos and listen mp3's etc.

Ps2 is my favorite tho, but I might be getting a modded xBox soon.
