Yeah the graphics are better for the xbox, but the games are vastly more entertaining for Ps2. Not to mention that Ps2 has an ass more games than xbox. The graphics arent even that good either. In certain cases like halo, or splinter cell, the graphics engine shines, but formost other cases the graphics fall to only slightly better. It is a shame that microsoft doesnt utilize the power of the xbox.
As for xbox2 and PS3. I would say that ps3 will take the edge. I say they will be essentially the same machine, one may offer more features than the other, but they will probably be very similar in graphics and gameplay. Judging from what microsoft did with the xbox, which is very little i would wager that xbox 2 will be more hype than bite. Sony just seems to be more about the games and gammers in general. the only reason xbox2 might take the edge is because it will be released about an entire year before Ps3. Which is kind of bullshit, because most reports so far say that xbox2 wont support cross platform games. Meaning you cant play xbox games on xbox2. That may change with the release though.
ass more games than xbox
I feel confident in saying that over 50% of games for the PS2 are below standard.
Halo or Halo 2 would never go to the PS2 as it would be impossible.
There is a high chance that Xbox 2 will be out first.
Rumor from Nintendo is for the next gen console they won't have third party support
satsujin i never said graphics made the game. second off i loved my dreamcast o so dearly. shenmue and soul caliber and a shit load of incredible 2d fighters made that one of my favorite systems however like you said the american dreamcast (which is the one i had since i live in america and didn't have the money or the know how on how to import and use a foreign dreamcast) didn't have nearly as many games as the foreign model. I almost cried when shenmue 2 made it to pal territories on dreamcast but not america on dreamcast they had to port to xbox for america it got me so pissed off. anyway if i am mistaken on what killed off the dreamcast I'm sorry but i would think that since so many people are graphics skanks like you say the ps2 with its superior graphics (at the time of its release) would be a magnet to them so i used common sense and tried to put 2 and 2 together and what did i come up with wallah ps2 is what killed dreamcast. once again i apologize for not getting my facts straight but i still think that ps3 will slaughter xbox 2

Yeah right. Nintendo is smart enough to not do this and developers arnt going to stop making games for a Nintendo console.
And how can you say what system is going to be better. Nothing has been released yet, so its almost impossible to compare.
PS2 killed Dreamcast because 1)graphics and more importantly it was the sequel to Playstation.
And there's already a thread on this, search for this topic before posting a new thread. I'm starting to get sick of newbs who don't read the rules before starting to post. Get dave123 to close or merge.
