Gamecube is DEFINATELY the best machine I've had one since christmas and think its much better than the rest.

--->for the people comparing specifications of the machines stop that now it don't mean nothing!! look at the dreamcast much more powerful than the playstation and almost as powerful as the ps2 but where is it now?! It didn't have the support from software houses and was too hard to programme for.

---> Yes Res EVIL is EXCLUSIVE to the cube and all six titles are coming out on it. I played it the other day (jap version) and have to say that it is amazing

---> if you want rpgs get a cube Square are making games for it and bringing the final fantasy series back to nintendo where it all started.

At the end of the day the X-box is the ugliest machine ever heavy, bulky and the pads are even worse. The japs hated it and thats definately back news... can't talk now but I'll be back with 101 reasons why the CUBE is the best later - B

I have both PS2 and Xbox! PS2 at the moment has many games but Xbox even from the very first games definately shows its teeth! I waste more time playing on Xbox than PS2! Although I love PS2 and PS2 is the machine that started the real console war I will stick on my Xbox for the future best games ever!
So my vote goes to Xbox! Definately the best console ever it just needs some time to get the best out of it! Its just so powerful!!!!!

GamesCube is going to be £199.99 with 2 games and 2 controllers. Now that is a really good deal

Nintendo ofisialy said the gamecube is gonna be a great console for the childrens!The onlu game who i am gonna die and Nintento close that game just for the gamecube is the Resident Evil!!!!
If you see how the game looks like now are you gonna be crazy!!!
Tha ps2 have more games becouse it is in the market 2 years now!
The XBOX is the more stronger!If you look the hardware its a lot of times more powerefull than tne ps2!
And dont forget who have the money on this planet!Tha name Gates and Microsoft is a great answer e???
Anyway!

I have the PS2 and now picked up the xbox a few weeks ago......... have to say the xbox kicks ass, the graphics blow away both PS2 and Game cube..... PS2 has so many good games but I have trouble going back to it after playing the xbox. I have Halo, will set it up to play on the internet tonight......... cool multiplayer option.

My feeling

Xbox: expensive, most powerful machine, limited games in Europe..... the list is very long of games in the states so they wil come.

Game Cube: inexpesive, good graphics.... games seem limited again at the start. No DvD as far as I know.......the disc are smaller than the others

PS 2: lowest on the scale for power and graphics but has so many games and it is at a good price now

so it depends what you want......

Have you seen Resident Evil on the Game Cube? It goes beyond anything PS2 and the Fat Box has done.

There is a version of the Game Vube that can run DVDs its called the "Q".

Nintendo will cut the price of the Game Cube if Sony cuts the price of the PS2. No word from Microsoft.

The Game Cube is looking better and better.

No I haven't seen it. But people have been telling me that it is a very good game.

O I like the new name for the Xbox - Fat Box
