I don't like PS2 as much as x box, cause there isn't as many cool games like Halo.

I'm fine with the PS2, I think that both the Xbox and PS2 are good systems and bashing the PS2 isn't going to help anything besides maybe working the muscles on that Xbox p*nis of yours. I guess the one problem I do have with the PS2 is the fact that there aren't any Halo games on it, but the PS2 can't really help with that.

I'm not too big of a fan of PS2... I voted 2 controller slots being annoying... PS2 has to use memory cards, two possible controllers, and the "on" button is in the back. Xbox basically has the same games and intrenal memory and overall Xbox is better. Although Gamecube has the best controllers... yet the system is not as good as Xbox.

I believe , that while my ps2 has a wider selection of games, it's underpowered, so I'll have less good games in the future.

right before Halo (the first one) was released, it was slated for release for both PS2 and xbox, but Bungie decided to release it on xbox only.

Gamecube controllers is the thing I hate most. There's not much point in complaining about PS2 controllers, since XBOX controllers are generally the same.

I dont have nothin wrong with no PS2(excuse the triple negative I'm from Alabama) I personally think it's better than x-box. Sure x-box has better graphics but i can't stand the controls and the only game i like for it is Halo, and i have my pc to play that. The only reason im considering buying an x-box is because i dont think i can wait for Halo 2 on pc.

I'm with Tanikaze. PS2 controllers SUCK, especially for FPSes. I don't get why people think they're good...they're not that comfortable. 'Cube controlles are comfortable to hold, but their button layout and analog thumbstick design is HORRBILE. The Duke sucks, too. I love the Type-S controllers, though. They rock.

But, PS2 has tons of great games, but no Halo.

PS2 controllers are a bit awkward for FPS games -- but the rest of this poll is ridiculous -- the controllers for the PS2 are the best out there -- I regularly use my XConnect to use the PS2 controller on Dead or Alive 3 and many other games except for FPS's.

And the number of buttons and functions are exaclty the same -- so the argument against it above was completely wrong. The only difference is the L2 and R2 buttons are replaced with Black and White.

The PS2 is a great system in it's own right --
The DreamCast had better Graphics than the PS2 did as well -- but that didn't help it's own longevity any.
The GameCube has better graphics than both of them -- and a very intuitive controller design (Although limited in features)
And the XBox has the best graphics -- but seriously lacks in the control department with the analog implementation of the buttons in certain games.

Each has their flaws and strengths, and making polls like this is banal and pointless -- it simply asks for flaming.

Well, only 2 controlers isn't that big of a deal for me (course I don't own a ps2 though) but I hear a lot that unless you put it on it's side it tends to break.
