Good Lord.

*sigh*

As for which is "better"... let me run down the list:

CPU:
PS2 - 250Mhz RISC
XBOX - 700Mhz Celeron

(I'll take the RISC chip, thanks!)

GFX:
PS2 - Sony Proprietary
XBOX - GeForce3

(GeForce3 is better at high res, but your TV is 400x400... so it doesn't matter much!)

Controllers:
PS2 - Excellent
XBOX - FRIGGIN' HUGE AND UGLY AND BULKY AND UNUSABLE

(I _HATE_ XBOX CONTROLLERS!)

XBox Bonuses:
Hard drive
built-in network
Rare works for Microsoft now

XBox Minuses:
If I wanted to play PC games, I'd play them on my PC.

PS2 Pluses:
More games, better games.
Square works for Sony.

PS2 Minuses:
HDD costs extra
Network costs extra
