True, Halo's the only stand-out game like I already said, but I'd rather have an X-Box than a Playstation 2, anyways. Final Fantasy games haven't caught my attention since 7. GTA is worth a rent or two, but not worth the full price of buying it. Resident Evil's now moved to the GameCube. Gran Turismo is fun if you're into that kind of racing game. Ico has been considered a sleeper hit by many, but I never did enjoy that game. Devil May Cry has been enjoyed by alot of people, and I think it's fun to WATCH, but I couldn't make myself enjoy playing it. The WWE Smackdown! games suck in my opinion, so there goes that. While Metal Gear Solid 1 was awesome, MGS2 wasn't what I was hoping for, plus now Substance (I think it's called...the improved MGS2) is on X-Box anyways. Nothing much really appeals to me on the PlayStation 2.
I won't say that the PS2 is a bad system (because it isn't), but I just don't find myself enjoying its main game series much at all. I find myself playing Halo so much more than I play the PlayStation 2 all-together, and the X-Box is much more powerful a machine, so it holds greater possibilities for great games than the PS2, power-wise. Then many X-Box games are ports found on other systems (SSX for example), and simply LOOK better. For systems being the same price now, and having many of the same games as other, I'd go with the system that makes the games look better and has a series I'd like to follow (Halo). Plus with an on-line gaming plan like the X-Box has (I don't have broadband yet, so I can't use it), it just seems so logical.
Of course, I bought a GameCube because it's my favorite of the three, heh. My brother has the X-Box and PS2, so I get all the X-Box playing time I want when I'm not playing Metroid Prime, Wind Waker, Mario Sunshine, Super Smash Brothers Melee, or any other game like that.
GameCube > X-Box > PlayStation 2
My opinion, not fact.
