Critic really trys his hardest to be just like Duke.

Brown swede...  Why do you have to get rid of them, and I can't find those shoes you were talking about anywhere. 

Oh, you got the brown suede? I got the ORIGINAL black perforated leather (the first line that came out in August '03) and I recently got the marbleized sapphire, that are SO HOT, damn I love those shoes.

The only place Ive seen the RennKatz (in stores) is at Commander Salamander in Georgetown, tomorrow Im gonna go buy them in black, Im SO excited!

I've had my PS2 for about 2 years and i got the limited edition halo xbox (the green xbox) and its great. PS2 is good but I'd go for Xbox. Halo is one hell of a game. I couldnt stop playing it for almost the whole day. Go with Xbox

Edit: O, and if you are going to buy Xbox tell em to check if its the samsung drive cuz the other xbox drives (the firt ones) die after a year or so.

PS2 by far, GameCube just sucks, it has horrible controller design, cannot play DVDs and has generally bad games with tired characters

XBox is a good system and has better graphics than the ps2, but the game lineup is minimal in comparison with the PS2, really depending on what kinds of games your after

PS2s controller design is the same a s the PSOne's which helps because you don't have to get used to a new controller, and the buttons are only cramped if you have fat fingers, ive never met anyone who has a problem with punching two buttons at once

as for reliability, I saw a ps2 game go bad once, the ps2 was fine, the game just got scratched, as for gamecubes, my friend adam (who owns one) says the little minidisc break easily and the system is shoddily put together, as for xbox, my friend Sean is on his third one (granted, he takes very bad care of them)

So it's really just between XBox (better graphics, less games) or PS2 (worse graphics, more games) and it really depends on what kind of games you like.

and keep in mind, Grand Theft Auto San Andreas and Gran Turismo 4 are coming out exclusively on ps2

I decided on Xbox and bought it yesterday with a few other things:

Xbox Console + 2yr Warranty
Big Ass RF Modulator + 2yr Warranty
DVD Kit
Controller
GTA:2Pack
Halo
Halo 2: Limited Edition Pre-Order
16MB Memory Card

And today, I hooked everything up to my stereo. It sounds tight. I also just found out you can copy CDs onto the hard drive and import them into GTA... Pretty cool. This was well worth the money I spent on it.
Thanks for everyone's suggestions. They really helped.

I've had PS2 for a year and a half and so far nothing has messed up or gone wrong, so if i were u, i'd get PS2.

Wow, you're bright.

Why would you post that right after he said he already got a XBOX?

Bare in mind that Halo is out on PC too...

EDIT: bad decision my friend...

You got THAT thing? XBox? I personally hate it. Yep. You heard me right. I hate it.
