I know exactly what you mean. I have beta tested a lot of real cool games for M$ that I couldn't wait to get when they came out and never saw them again.

I never thought that the xbox's stable of games were actually any good to begin with and I was incredibly unimpressed with the launch. We had like 30 xboxes the day it launched and they just sat there collecting dust. After week one we still had a first shipment (we still had 23 left and seven out of 30 in the first week is terrible sales) Xbox actually didn;t pick up until it came out that you could mod it and then we seemed to be selling a shipment around every two weeks or so. Compare that to the PS2 which we ran through six shipments in a week and a half ON it second year of release in the same time span and I knew who had won the console war. I think that MS relasing the xbox 2 next year in the end of 2205 isn't a good idea either. Sony sure ins't gonna panic like MS thinks they will for the simple fact that they have the delveopers of some of the most beloved and hot selling franchises in their poicket...and I know all xbox fans will say that they get GTA games as well but it usually over six months later with NO improvements or additions so is it really worth it for us that have already played it?

You also have to keep in mind that Xbox's were somethin like $350 too.

The xbox was 300 dollars when it launched and so was the Ps2 which was outselling it like 30 to one at that time. The new xbox has to come up with higher calibur games from 3rd party developers like a rpg of a final fantasy calibur to oust Sony. As long as Sony corners the RPG market and platformer market it's gonna have a large amount of control. Son'y not gonna panic over the xbox 2 for the simple fact that Sony has control of a large part of the main genres that gamers enjoy. Sudeki and Fable are no match for Xenosaga and Final Fantasy and the only real markets xbox has sony pinned down in is sports and FPS. They need more or it doesn't matter when the release xbox 2, Sony is gonna step up and claim the market.

Hmm, I actually remember it being more like $350. And I also think the PS2 dropped their price right before or during the same time that Xbox started to sell their machines. Xbox also had those butt-ugly bricks they called controllers.

Now Ill have to do some research on the pricing thing as Im not 100% sure on that but thats how I remember it.


And Im shocked you havent mentioned anything about my second quote.

Xbox had a bundle. Was like 2 controller, 3 games, the xbox, and a dvd kit for $500. It only had like 12 launch titles.

I'll only get xbox 2 if I can do all the fun stuff I do now with my xbox. I wanna mod it and make sure my games are as far out of the hands of my brother as I can get them. He already turned my MGS 3 disc into a clear drink coster and I'm steamed about it. At least with the xbox games I can back them up and let him destroy the back-up discs. Well I'm off to Gamestop.......
