I think it'll be a big success for a little while, then it'll all be done. Similarly priced, way better specs and a better console overall (aka PS3) will overtake it, and suddenly, game stores will see floods of people turning in their XBox360s for the better console. Then to compensate, Microsoft will market an XboxPortable, and it too will flop with the release of a PSP2. Microsoft just can't compete. XBoxLive is a joke. I mean it's a monthly fee to play games online, using your own connection! Maybe the PS2 online is lacking a bit, but at least when you pay for the console and the network adaptor, you are done. And to further that, look at all the crap left out of the first XBox. You can only play DVDs using and $30 accessory? The crappiest controller EVER (Dreamcast was better). And it still can't out perform a PS2. It's Microsoft all over. Crappy product, crappy performance and crappy sequel. Oh wait, it is Microsoft.

Uhoh, I hear the fanboy footsteps.

Unable to play the latest in cutting edge movie media (HD-DVD/Blu-Ray).

thats my favorite one ... since you know, the HD-DVD/Blur-Ray discs are already available to us all!

heh but seriously, its pretty funny the coincidences 🙂

I'l say this, X260 won't fail due to lack of horsepower. The game I saw (Kameo) demoed at Best Buy on a Samsung DLP TV had awesome graphics and ran smooth as butt grease.

I admit it, I am a PS2/PSP/PS3 fanboy. But really, who cares. It's a better product overall, a more sound investment for the future of gaming, and is going to come in it's box with everything you could need. It's going to have the same and better games than the XBox360, going to have better techspecs, BluRay. Wait for a PS3, and then see the XBox flop.

No need to read any further after the first sentence.

In any case, I welcome competition. Consumers win.

This is why the Dreamcast failed (it didn't flop btw) you had a bunch of Playstaion fanboys sitting around saying that the PS2 was going to be the greatest thing since sliced bread.
Fact was that there wasn't much out there in the way of games until almost a YEAR after its launch but everyone fell for the hype and didn't buy a Dreamcast.

how come its always a "fanboy".. isn't anyone a "fanman" or when you grow up do you realize that you can make your own opinions and enjoy whatever the hell you want?

"fanboy" is because they aren't allowed to like more than 1 system, like a little kid who can only afford to purchase 1 system so he must love it and hate all the others he couldn't afford.

"fanman" i would say is someone who, like you said, just makes their own opinions based on facts as well as their opinions, and is allowed to like more than 1 system.

rule #1 of a fanboy = you cannot like more than 1 brand's system!

and seeing how you aren't making stupid biased comments like cruiser is, i'd agree with you 🙂

since when did having better specs matter...I thought it was all about the games? Will the PlayStation fanbois change their tune this time around? 😛

and suddenly, game stores will see floods of people turning in their XBox360s for the better console. Then to compensate, Microsoft will market an XboxPortable, and it too will flop with the release of a PSP2. Microsoft just can't compete.

Where is Microsoft's competition today? IBM OS/2? Lotus? Netscape? Never forget the Microsoft Motto: If at first you don't succeed, throw more money at it or buy the competition!

XBoxLive is a joke. I mean it's a monthly fee to play games online, using your own connection! Maybe the PS2 online is lacking a bit, but at least when you pay for the console and the network adaptor, you are done.

You need a history lesson boy! Sony's original online plan was to have you pay a monthly fee FOR EVERY GAME and splitting that 50/50 with developers. They thought this was superior because only the good developers would be rewarded based on the market. Developers LAUGHED and said "let us control the pricing" and now you see that most devs chose not to charge--because THAT was the only way to compete against/offer parity with Xbox Live. Xbox Live a joke??? Their online play is FAR SUPERIOR to anything else not on a PC.

And to further that, look at all the crap left out of the first XBox. You can only play DVDs using and $30 accessory?

PS2 and Microsoft both charged the same for the DVD remote. Sure PS2 let you control movies with a controller but the interface was kinda lame anyway. Most everyone who used it for DVDs bought the remote.

The crappiest controller EVER (Dreamcast was better).

No it wasn't!

And it still can't out perform a PS2.

Come again? Are you talking about Xbox or Xbox 360? You're wrong on either count...the original Xbox might not outperform PS2 at every level but it can at least match if not exceed its performance.

It's Microsoft all over. Crappy product, crappy performance and crappy sequel.

Did you ever play Age of Empires 2?

Oh wait, it is Microsoft.

Exactly.

i guess this cruiser guy has never heard of MMORPG's for PC's that cost over $10/mo to play just 1 single game.

xbox live is ~ $4.25/mo to play any xbox live enabled game online.

i guess the $10/mo (or whatever it is for world of warcraft) is just so horrible, playing $10/mo to play 1 single game online. wow, i bet that game makes no money at all because its such a stupid idea ...

:roll:

this kid is the biggest idiot, i almost don't even want to reply to him anymore. i'm sure he's never even played on xbox live because of the comments he said. there is nothing that even COMPARES to xbox live on the console side of online gaming.
