1: The Speed
2: The Built in Memory
3: Xbox Live
4: System Link
5. Great games

...and if you get the offical Xbox magazine, it comes with playable demos and game boosters.

it's really about the games. both already released and coming down the pike (see flays sticky thread). Most of us around here (except for the few fanboys) could care less about whether you get the PS2 or the Xbox. Get which ever one will make you the happiest (games).

1. The sound
2. Being able to rip songs from your CD collection to the xbox hard disk so you can do multiple combos as Tony Hawk to your favorite tracks.
3. Xbox live/multiplayer fun...what does the future hold???
4. The graphics
5. Solid DVD player

But i also agree with Shuki, whatever you get, be happy with that.
