Uh... mediocre? Do you realize what year PS2 came out on? Do you know when Xbox came out on? And yet, PS2 still can keep up in the top three game consoles. Why? Because Xbox is just another Windows computer in a different box. Until there are Xbox exclusive games that don't suck ass, I'm not using one. I gave mine, that I got as a gift, to my stepdad. Why? Because I can get the good games for it on PS2, the controller is larger then the state of Texas, and because I hate hardcore Halo fans. So, so much.


Oh,
Complain about the controller, what are you twelve? Hands can't fit around the controller??

Then my friend, I suggest you should have gotten the S-Controller. Or Small.

And,
In the same token, those Halo fans, hate PS2 Zealots like yourself so, so, so much.

I'm not used to teh original one, so I got two madcatz. Unfortunately, both are broke now, but still work. Ones L trigger is super sensitive, you can just put your finger on it, and then you chunk a grenade in Halo. The other one (One I use) doesn't stop rumbling once it stops, unless you pause the game, so, :/

I had a cool ps2 controller with a weird design, stix, and a turbo button. (Turns a pistol into an M4) But the Stick broke, dunno how, i wasnt there when it happened. So now im back to the black n grey controller.

Ps2 controllers-

Black- R1 gets stuck. R2 gets stuck every 6 months
Grey- Buttons dont go in far enuf

New Blue Controller- Godly.

I'm not a PS2 zealot. I like it, but I really prefer Starcraft above anything else. I only have about three games for PS2, the rest are just PS1 games. Do you wear Halo t-shirts, go only on Halo websites, and write Halo on your arm when you're not doing anything? There's a kid in my class that does that. But then again, why get a small controller if the games suck? Sure, I can get the Xbox ports of the good games, but what's the point? All the games I want right now, (about... two), are PS2 only.

Xbox had SplinterCell almost a year before PS2 had it

...
Wow, I was unaware SEN was a Halo only website.

No,
I am not a freak about Halo, but I will defend it. I actually, recently QUIT playing Halo 2, and started playing Counter-Strike. And, the PS1, is ok, as.. it has many good games.. Like - Tecmo's Deceptions, CastleVania: SotN, RE3, RE2 -.- , RE1. And others, but I can not stand the PS2.

Anyways,
I do believe this thread is getting no where now.

ED: LOL... I just realized my new sig kind of contradicts that Halo thing.. but.. You see I love Grunts. smile.gif

He said HALO ONLY websites, the keyword being 'ONLY', thus meaning only refering to Halo, and only HALO. This is SEN, dedicated to SC.
Sheesh.

I'd rather play Devil May Cry 3 or God of War than Halo 2, I'd rather play Tekken 5 than Dead or Alive, I'd rather play Gran Turismo 4 than Forza Motorsport, And I'd rather play Doom 3 and Half Life 2 on Computer. And plus, PS2 has all the anime games that I like. Does Xbox have any GOOD anime games? I meant good as in a good game, not a good anime.

I think you misread my post. I said that Ps2 has mediocre HARDWARE, not games. Ps2, in my opinion, has many many many better games. Theyve been in the busines longer. They know what theyre doing. THATS why they were able to keep up with everyone else.


Its impossible to "prove" that a certain system has better games, because thats a matter of opinion. But you CAN prove that a system has better specs than another, because instead of comparing opinions, youre comparing numbers.

Personally, if xbox has a port of a game, Im getting it over the ps2 version. Smoother graphics, quicker load times, and no need for them blasted memory cards all lead me to prefer xbox versions of games over the ps2 versions.




BACK ON TOPIC!
I usually leave my xbox on 24/7. I just dont really care, lol. But *unfortunately) I bought mine when they first came out (At the low low price of 350$!!!) so I have the crappy CD-drive that decays. Its getting to the point where I cant play a brand new disk without the xbox telling me it isnt an actual disk 4-5 times.

Just wondering, how would that effect better games? Sony doesn't make games, developers do, and then sell it to them.

You dont have a mind for business... Obviously the developers... here

-Bfore Xbox was here, ps2 got alllllllll the good games!
- Obviously, the developers wanted to give their games to a trusted company, thye would obviously trust the vets of the systems....
-Ps2 being around longer means more games they have, and more ps2s there are.
-some more crap but i hafta go!

When these systems first came out gamecube, xbox, and ps2 I read how gamecube wouldn't get many games because of the tiny disks, which turned developers away.

Another thing, since there was a ps1 before a ps2 then developers who have made current prequels on ps1 would likely choose ps2 to continue making games on. Ps2 is backwards compatible too.

I was hoping this topic would stay dead. I guess I was foolish to think that.

Anyways,
Techinically, if your saying Ps2 has been in the gaming industry longer, "it knows" what its doing, then Nintendo should be slapping the other systems around, because Nintendo was here long before Sony.

But PS2 was always a step farther. While Nintendo was making those Nintendo/SNES stuff, Sony made like awesome TV/Electronics. N64 < PS2. Gameboys/DS < PSP (Not talking about price, just the quality), Gamecube < PS2.

Yeah, Xbox is so much of a better system. I would've gotten it if Xbox had better games at the time, but since PS2 had like games that I liked (Gran Turismo, Tekken, RPGs, Anime games) I got PS2.

You aren't taking into account how radically different the gamecube is, which in this case makes it bad. Such as the small discs would discourage a lot of developers. Many people also think nintendo is just for kids.

Bringing gamecube into this would be like comparing a sega system smile.gif

Like he (^) said. Nintendo appeals to a different audience. Also, I may be wrong in saying this, and please correct me if I am (I hate thinking the wrong thing) but gamecube has the weakest specs of any of the systems. It also has a small game library (compared to the playstation series).


Also, Nintendo diverts a lot of its efforts into its handheld industry, which is DOES rule over (with the exception of the PSP....hehehe.)


THATS why Nintendo doesn't rule over everyone.



**Oh, and true, Sony themselves doesnt develop the games, but they DO decide what games do purchase from the other companies. They have been in the business long enough to sort of figure out whether or not a game will be a flop or not. Most of the time.
