How are PS2 games cheaper? New releases for both consoles and Gamecube are at 50$. XBOX also has a Greatest Hits line, called Platinum, and games cost 20$.

I used to be a big PS fan and owned lots of titles and lots of accessories. You need accessories when you are buying a bare bone console, sort of. My PS2 had the pleasure of blowing more money on the multi-tap (4 controller), extension cables (XBOX controllers are longer), network adapter, DVD remote, memory cards, memory cards, and more memory cards. Sadly, I bought the PS2 at launch and the netwrok adapter at launch. I bet you I spent over 600$ in hardware alone.

Needless to say the PS2 was dying. It was giving disc errors every attempt. The fan was louder than my TV at times. So, I had to break down and trade it all in for an XBOX. Guess what? I haven't looked back. My main reason for the M$ product was the great online community they developed. This is quite a top notch feature. The game titles are superb and there are quite some outstanding games, especially in sports (includes driving) and FPS.

My recomondation is XBOX. The only M$ equipment allowed in my house.
