And the xbox is durable until you move it. It has an hdd which is one of the most non-durable parts of a pc. You can drp the xbox 5 feet above the ground on a carpet floor and the hdd is likely to break. btw, the power supplies burn out from constant unpligging ang pluggin in (cracks the solder that hols the plug onto the power suply board).

Hello , Every Game system I purchased i give it a drop test from about 5ft. Both of my boxes passed with no flaws. Try doing that with a PS2. when i had to move to another house (Last yr), My box was dropped several times & it still plays my games with no problems with the same 120gb hard drive. My power supply still works no problem. I dont have 2 baby my xbox. It holds its on as far as punishment goes. I've plugged/unplugged my box hundreds of times ..no prob. Its a well built rugged machine.

1. Yeah probably, but ps2 is nicer to carry.

2. $$$, anyways who cares what happens to your dvd drive if you can afford a 220gig HDD. Surely you can afford a $100 new dvd drive.

3. Personally I cant stand fighter games. They never really change except for characters. Heck even the characters dont change by much, japanese chicks with large breasts, big fat guys/bears, or the occasional Russian guys. All the fight scenarios havent changed in years. Really "I" can go on and on for hours on this subject but lets leave it at that.

4. Well the only real problem with ps2 has been the laser. I really an not sure how many things can go wrong with an xbox but I dont see the PS2 as a big problem.

5. That can be sorta lame, and yes I have seen plenty of them.

6. Yeah PS2 memory card thing sucks. I totally agree there.

7. PS2 comes with DVD playback already and Xbox requires you to "BUY" some extra piece of hardware i dont have 2 keep up with.

1. dont make a mistake & drop it

2. The point of Hd is to run the games from the hd instead of the dvd drive. less wear & tear on the DVD drive. Also u will make mistake & accidently get scratched discs from playing them.

3. Kool ..thats your opinion. But a majority of people like fighters. Killer instinct is a classic fighter. There's no other fighter game like ki1/2.

5. Lame ... Nobodys perfect but i've seen some kool case mods.

7. if u didn't notice I meant a modded xbox doesnt require u 2 buy the dvd playbak kit.

U can learn something from everybody.
