SMan, as an expert in console game systems, which one's the best?
Or does it depend on the game?
Yoss - It used to depend on the game genres you preferred. My old recommendation was PS2 for sports games (because they were the only one's online capable) and xbox for everything else (because of it's superior graphics and ease of use).
I now say xbox all the way since their graphics are much better and the xbox live service includes everything PS2 had and more. When games are released across multiple consoles, 99.9% of the time, the xbox version is superior.
I keep the gamecube around because Nintendo makes a few outstanding games based on their long time signature characters such as Legend of Zelda, Mario Bros., Metroid, etc. Some of these are worth the price of the 'cube just to play them, especially since you can get the system for well under a $100.
How's that for a geeky answer?
