Nice. There's a story to kill some arguement at my school. There's loads of ps2 fans who take the piss out of the gamecube.

All three are horrible. Just get some good computer games, you can at least continue to add to those with easy internet connections .

I want to tell you this story: On mythbusters, they did this thing where they drop a ps2, xbox, and gamecube off a 30 foot building.
ps2:completely and utterly ruined.
xbox:broke in half and had buttons come off.
gamecube:hit ground, and lid popped open. They plugged in later and played video games on it to close the show.
Who do you think is dominant? (breaking wise)

Obviously you didnt follow up on the internet. If you went to X-Plays website, it said that the XBox only broke because it landed on the top corner which popped out the On button. They later took a pen and pressed the little thing that the on button normally presses and it turned on. So, in conclusion, that test proved nothing except that it depends which side it falls on.

Like I had said before, the Xbox's button popped out so it sucks no matter how it hits the ground. (Well it sucks destruction wise.) What about the other two? How did they land?

A) Who is going to drop their consol out of a fifth story window AND expect it to not break?
B) it is not a good expierament if the places where they hit the ground were not consistant.
C) The PS2 broke on the first hit (there were multiple runs); the GameCube's top snapped off but it still worked.

And as for Wii, not interested. I'm sorry but even if it is innovative, I don't really care. Nintendo has been notoriuos for putting out pretty crappy and/or childish games. (Super Marios Smash Brothers was good though) And I HATE Mario!!! Let him die already!! Reminds me of a flash animation called "The Decline of Video Games" in which there was an entire sectin of video games devoted just to him, doing everything you can think of. Even the RPG's look childish. All the Zelda games look way to weird, and the sound tracks and sound efects just sound way too cartoony for my taste. (The newest Zelda game does look pretty badass though.)

Why is it childish to jump on your enemies, people act like jumping on peoples heads and throwing fireballs at them is some big purple dinosaur thing, sorry, but where I come from, jumping on heads and throwing fireballs ain't friendly. Them's fighting tactics.
Unless you are talking about the CD-i Zelda games, I really don't understand what you have against Zelda, it totally rocks.

I agree, not just based on tech, just on the fact that X-box Is enormous and heavy, I would need an industrial crane to take it to a friends house, and the controller was made for a giant octopus. Geez. Anyway microsoft sucks ass, their computers suck ass. First, even after you delete something, it still takes up memory in the hard drive, Gods that's retarded.
the security is a joke, and the only reason people buy Windows is because they are either too lazy to learn programming, or because of microsoft's monopoly on pc games. Gods.

I'm not sure if this has been mentioned yet, but microsoft has also copied nintendo with their 'secret' handheld, the Origami. IT HAS A TOUCH SCREEN! It looks absolutely gigantic, judging from the video i got off google. It's about the size of a closed laptop
Wii will Wii will rock you!
Go Nintendo!

All right, i will go through it.
The XBox is not heavy at all! The only thing wrong that i see is the brick sized power adapter. If you have trouble picking it up, then you would have trouble picking up my school book. I (and others) would rather have a comfortable controller than a very small, squished one. The controller is not very big and it feels good to hold. Size isnt everything. I see that you probably suggest Mac over Windows, eh? When you want a mac to shutdown, hit the save button.... The reason Windows has more viruses than Mac's (and yes, there are a few Mac viruses out there) is because Windows has been the leading PC and that is what virus programmers aim for. Soon, there will be just as many viruses for Mac. People dont have a want to learn programming. If all they want to do is type up something, they should not have to learn how to program. Lazyness has nothing to do with it. If you are going to argue, argue well.

I can't stand the Xbox controller! It's way too bulky! And the amount of buttons is crazy

you forgot the d-pad and the black and white buttons. In any case, I am a Sony basher myself, but at least they came up with original buttons
