should have said "were" instead of "are". i've been thinking about this for some time. mostly trying to talk myself out of it.

You're just a child. Currently hooked up:
N64
PSOne
SNES
NES
Dreamcast
Genesis
Atari 7200

I still haven't hooked up my TurboGrafx, Intellivision, or Sega Master system. What a Loser I am

N64
PS2
Dreamcast
Xbox
GameCube
NES
Atari 2600
Atari 7800

I also have a Sega Genesis/CD/32X and Intellivision kicking around here somewhere.

Does a GBA count?

If your into FPS Xbox is where its at,even if you dont like the controller it does make a great FPS controller and of coarse Xbox live.

GC will have the best 1st party no questions asked,they take there time and do it right,Metroid is the only reason im buying a GC and this is a good reason alone to buy one.

I own a PS2 now and while it sucked its first year its taking over as I speak,they have every catagory of games at there disposal,you want the best RPGs stick with PS2 because they will have the most and best,sports games are a lock,action games and a slew of 1st party or exclusives GTA3/Vice City.

And to the dude who said PS2 had zero power?whats up with that?40 million people buying a PS2 because it has zero power?Ill take the AAA games while you play what?Halo again?

notice i said "active". anyway, after looking around this weekend, the PS2 is making a lot more sense. it's quite the dilemma actually. i know i'll get both eventually, but which one to get NOW.

i think the mario sunshine bundle is going to put the GC over the top though. $189 with mario sunshine and a memory card sounds like a pretty decent deal.

but it's hard to dismiss all those PS2 games...FF, MGS, GT3, GTA3...

whoever mentioned FPSs on X-box...thanks, but it's not my thing. Goldeneye is still the only one i ever got into.
