Default XBox, PS2 or GC?
Which one should I buy? I have no experience of GameCube, so I canīt speak for it or against it. From my own experience, I think Iīd prefer XBox over PS2 but if you guys got any of these, please, advice me.

Cube rocks. Thousands will disagree with me, but I have 2 PS2 games, about 10 Cube ones, and never bothered with an Xbox

Keep On Rockin'

Nice to get some support for the idea. Iīve been thinking about getting the cube. How is the graphics? What games have you got?

Graphics are awesome, do you have a TV that can display 60hz mode? Cos if you don't, some games won't be as good graphics. I have:

Rogue Squadron 2: Rogue Leader- good game
Super Smash Brothers Melee- great fun in multiplayer
Resident Evil- fantastic adventure
Super Mario Sunshine- tis OK
Starfox Adventures- alright, a bit short
Resident Evil Zero- great game
Metroid Prime- amazingly awesome game
The Legend Of Zelda- fantastic

Keep On Rockin'

It depends what you're looking for really.

The X-Box is not a games console, more of a PC dedicated to games; hence it has such good graphics.

The GameCube is more about gameplay than anything else, and the graphics are good but not the best.

The PlayStation 2 is a great console because it has great developer support, so you will find a much wider range of games on it, and it can play DVD's too.

XBox is a console as much the others. It has PC technology, but it's def. NOT a PC. If I had to choose one, I'd buy XBox and mod it to use a bigger HD, and upload shitloads of stuff on it. My cousin has one and it rocks! Playing old C64 games on it is a thrill. Plus you can add loads of other stuff as well.

GC has the typical Nintendo gameplay, you either love it or hate it. I personally have never found Nintendo games too good. They're always aimed at younger audiences and the ones that aren't are either bad or indifferent.

XBox plays DVD's better than PS2. PS2 has a lot of trouble playing DVDs. And PS2 is starting to get old. Even though there's a lot more games for PS2, most of them are utter shite. Plus there's going to be a PS3 soon, so is it worth buying an already old machine?

I say XBox.

Well, Iīm between XBox and Cube. Cube is much cheaper but is it better value really? My brother has XBox, and I must say, itīs an amazing console, but Cube is tempting due to itīs value.
