Man, it seems almost dead center. I've been looking at games and it seems as though PS2 has a lot and since they still play PS games that is a great advantage.

When I say poop I mean the overall customer service and some other annoyances....such as.....When I canceled XBOX live it took them over 2 weeks to respond to my e-mail, then they finally canceled it. Also whenever you would download updates, everytime you play the game live it would "verify content". Maybe the new XBOX live is better. I just have my XBOX in my room as a DVD player now....and I use my computer for games.

I love Xbox Live. I have had no such problems. I have also had great experiences with Microsoft support.

And what is the basis of your claim? Midtown Madness 3 is great online as well as many other games.

Why is Gamecube loosing, Nintendo's still cool, I think. You'll see, Nintendo will make a comeback someday! Maybe, probably.

Gamecube is losing because it is inferior to PS2 and XBOX in both hardware and many games. It doesn't play DVD's and many people don't like the controllers. They will have to do better than that if they want to stay in the console business.

They need to bring down the price of the PS2, I mean it's been out for three years and is the same price as X Box.

When most people see a PS2 and an X Box for $199 (Canadian) they tend to go for the X Box because of its graphic capabilities.

2 good games... halo and halo 2
Dont make me laugh. Try to beat unreal championship, DoA2, DoA online(almost out ), Fable (also almost out), any game by ubisoft (xbox always has the best version), HL2 (only comming out on xbox and pc), PGR, PGR2, hunter1 and 2, crimson skies, mechassult, sega GT2003, motoGP 1 and 2, CS...you get the point
