PS2, it weighs 6lbs, where the Xbox weights about 27. And the controller on Xbox is just weird.

Halo is fun, but PS2 is alot better, I feel.

The said PS3 will be almost based on that commercial they used to show when PS2 first released, the one with the kid thinking, and the game played using his thoughts.

Well, they're developing some sort of system that uses thought patterns to depict on how games will be played. This wasn't rumored, it was confirmed by alot of the Console gaming mags.

PS2, X-Box may have a couple good games, but PS2 has a lot of good games. I also hate the X-Box controller. The only games I wanna play on X-Box are Halo and Shenmue 2 (damn Sega, I was hoping for that game on DC)

I don't think PS2 has a lot more life in it, whereas you can bet X-BOX has
lots of it for a while. I don't like MS all that much, but the console isn't bad,
the games are okay (some of them are very nice) and you can get a small
version of the controller, if the big one pisses you off. PS2 has some very
good games too but like I said, I'm not sure how long it will last...

If you get a PS2, try to get it used...

I have a PS2 and it's great. I am buying the kids a GameCube for Christmas, because it has alot of kid games and it's cheaper. XBOX online cost a fee, so go with PS2.

That game was the only thing keeping me from selling my DC, then I read in a GamePro that it was cancelled and going to X-Box, i sold my DC and all the games for $65 to a friend. I loved the first one, it was amazing.
