Let me start off by saying nothing will ever replace my PC.

I enjoy console gaming for many reasons mainly for the 36"
TV screen I play them on. Anyway I have had a PS2 for about
3 months and have grown to love it especially that I can
play most of my old PS games. But recently I acquired an
Xbox to sell but I think I may keep it. What to do?
Sell the Xbox?PS2? or keep both?

Get a Gamecube, just kidding :) .

I'd sell the PS2, and keep the XBox. The XBox is awesome and can do anything the PS2 can, but better. You know Microsoft will pay to get good games continuing on their system. It has a very promising future.

<< keep both >>

No reason not too.

There's a major difference between the xbox and the ps2, one playes xbox games the other plays ps2 and ps1 games.

Sell the XBox. The only thing that makes the PS2 really suck is the fact that it only allows 2 players and most games only allow 2 player support. Not a real good "party" system.

Well I've owned a PS2 for about a year and to be honest have been kinda disappointed in it until the last few months. Seems like they're finally hitting their stride so to speak. Metal Gear Solid 2, GTA2, GT3.... so I will keep it.

I did just buy an Xbox yesterday. I think MS will spend whatever it takes over the next few years to make sure it gets accepted & gets a strong user base, and the games will only get better.

I would sell the xbox now, and buy all the good ps2 games. Then wait until xbox has 4-5 games worth buying, ( this could be 6 months from now) and has maybe come down in price to buy it again.

Yay, panty shots galore.

Yeah, it's pretty fun

Boring and repetitive

Sports games are for people who are too lazy to play real games, unless you're at an arcade with 3 of your friends

We'll have to wait and see with these, but like jteef said, wait untill there are severall games worth buying. (Edit: the list was a little long so I removed it. If you want to see it again just look up.)

Well the only xbox game that interests me is Halo, it was pretty fun from what I got to see at e3, but I'm not going to buy a 300 dollar xbox (if you can find it without a retarded bundle) just for Halo, and wait for something good to come out.

You should sell the XBox, keep the PS2 and get a Gamecube.
PS2 and Gamecube has many worth playing games that won't be available on PC.
The games on XBox....a huge chance they will come out on PC. XBox also doesn't have a lot of game developer support..

If anything, I would sell the PS2 and keep the Xbox. To many incredible games coming for Xbox. It's only going to get better dude. You have to see the forest through the trees. With Microsoft now buying Take 2 Interactive, there should be no doubt.

I'm being serious here, with no flaming intended, but who would want GC that is older than 12yrs old? I mean I liked Mario when I was a kid back then? They have the GAYEST games I've ever seen. I mean Luigi's Manson, come on! But hey, to each his own. If you like those kinds of games then you are in luck because the GC sells for a great price. ;)
