Playstation controllers ROCK!! I love em’, I use mine on my PC games too with Directpad pro drivers. All other controllers look HORRIBLE to me. Xbox controller looks like a cheap bloated mutations of a psx controller. I don’t know what gamecube was thinking at all, they should have stuck with the N64 controller!

That’s another thing I hate, every generation most companies make a whole new batch of crazy looking adapters, connectors and controllers, If you have a good thing going, Stick with it!! If Sony changes their controller/AV connectors with PS3, I think it will be a big mistake.There are adaptors that will run a PSX controller on an Xbox. Probably, If I got an Xbox I would buy a couple of those instead of buying any Xbox controllers.

Nobody has touched on quality yet. On the outside, I think both consoles look like utter crap!! As cheap as the PS2 looks on the outside, the inside is WORSE, it’s easy to tell Sony cut major corners to bost profits with PS2. Especially with drive assembly / laser assembly, and drive not being sealed from airflow and dust, motherboards that die if you drop the console 2 feet, pure junk through and through!

From what I can tell, the Xbox gives you far better quality under the hood, A sealed DVD drive like a PC, the fact that it has a Harddrive alone is far better value not to mention CPU power.

Hardware is nothing without software. The bottom line comes down to games. They are games consoles and unfortunately for Xbox, they fall short where it counts the most. The fact is, I just haven’t seen any Xbox games that make me want to run out and buy another console. A few games look good but just isn’t enough for me, for now!

The answer for the Xbox RPG question is simple, look who’s making the games, Playstation is an original Japanese console. Xbox is an American.
