People you are all missing harry's point.

Xbox SHOULD, and I again say SHOULD out power the PS2, it is 2 years older then the xbox, but like you even said, they are pritty much equal at this point. So theres one point for ps2.

Xbox will have the up in graphics and just about everything in a few years or maybe sooner, but im sorry if I don't go spend another $400 (only cause im in canada) on another system just to play the same game on Ps2 with graphics that are either the same, or minor in difference. The fact is PS2 came out earlier then the other two and is still in control of the market.

The online system is going to come down to weather microsoft wants to go global or focus on USA. If they want to go global they have at least 2 years for that, PS2 will have that under control in about 2 months (correct me if im wrong harry) either way its a lot sooner then 2 years.

Yes Xbox has its good sides, ill admit it, I really like the controller for the first part. And good for the hardrive, big thumbs up, but your talk about them offereing all this stuff with the starter kit is no different the PS2. You get a free game (twisted metal black:online = going to amazing) and when you get Socom you get the headset. So Its like getting 2 free games for the kit and the headset. I may spend a little more money, but at this point it seems worth it.

SIDE NOTE: Its people like some of the above who choose to be stupid and post on liners like "PS2 KICKS ASS, XBOX SUCKS" or "Xbox is better, end of story" that really have no idea whats going on and ruin a perfectly good debate.
