Advantages: GTA3

Disadvantages: over priced, not as good as the rest

I can't believe Sony are getting away with making a second rate console again!

Its totally unacceptably, their first effort was out classed by the far superior Sega Saturn, which I am the very proud owner of, however, somehow, although Sega have been in the games industry for alot longer, Sony managed to get most of the best games for their Playstation.

I would let that go once but my trusted Sega, done the same again by producing a console which, considering it was released around a year earlier, is just as good a machine as the PS2. The games however are completely crap and I am very glad I didn't buy one even though it was crazily cheap in an effort to offload them. I was a bit cynical about the PS2, well actually very! but I was quite impressed by it at first but then a couple months later, the XBox comes out and its like night and day.

The XBox has unbelievable graphics and although everyone says the controller is about as good as a kick in the teeth, I much prefer it too the PS2, but ill save my rantings for an XBox review!

So how is it yet again, Sony are managing to have a second rate console that craps all over the compition from a great height even though there is far better out there.

I just want someone to give me the answer to that!

ANYONE?!?

Down to the software - PS2 s/w is more mature then anything on the market

A: good marketing and good support from game manufacturers...and for me at least, an assurance from past experience that it'll proably still be around in a few years time. The X-Box rocks, but its more of a gamble.
