Xbox is acceptable console but it doesn't have a lot of games than the ps2 so more people liked the ps2 than the xbox but not the 360 has more games than the ps3 thats why the 360 is better than ps3. its all about what games are going out with and its price and right now the ps3 is still high but the 360 has got its new elite which is a good console but its unnecessary except for its memory.

THE PS2 IS SOOOOOOOOOO MUCH BETTER THAN THE XBOX!!! I really disagree of those who say that the XBOX is better than the PS2 because it's obviously not. The only reason that people buy XBOX is that it looks good but it's actually not good at all.

I have seen several reviews over lots of sites, and it is a shame to see some negative reviews, especially as people actually take advice given on reviews, so, after owning my xbox for soooooo long, there is only 1 bit of advice i can give: GET ONE!!!!!!!! Even though the xbox 360 is out in a few months, you might not be able to experience the fun from some of the old games, as they might not work on the 360. Get both! This is by far the best console ever, the ps2 is good, and the gamecube, well, nintendo seem to be following the dreamcast an falling out of the so called 'console war'.

Definately the best console on the market right now. Everything about it is superior to the PS2 which now gathers dust on my shelf. It may not have the same amount of titles as the PS2 but it is changing over time and with the arrival of the Xbox 360 just round the corner things are about to change. Love Custom soundtracks also.
