ppl that have play PS1 and 2 can adapt to the GC controller easily. its xbox that has a screwed up controler

oh yeah, not even close to the XBOX huh !
too bad that www.xbox.com didn't keep that COMPARISON thing...
it was showing the XBOX SPECS compared to the 3 other console !
there was XBOX, PS2 GC and even DREAMCAST on that page !
each with everything you need to know to compare systems !

http://www.nintendo.com/systems/gcn/specifications.jsp
http://www.us.playstation.com/hardwa.../415007657.asp

well, its a damn shame that microsoft didn't let that thing on, because now they only say their system is..
1 - 733mhz CPU
2 - very good graphics card (nvidia)
3 - very good 256 channel sound
4 - ergonomic joysticks

that's about all on the xbox
neway, see how low sony is compare to the other 2 !
the GC is way better in hardware terms !

Noboby gives a shi.t about hardware man!! It's about the games man the games!! Thats why Ps2 is the best in my book it has a wide variety of games were gc (well let's just say that that there won't be a mario sunshine 2 and metroid 2 nintendo expects people to play the same #### over and over they don't make anything new once they've made a good game ;) what I'm tryin to say is that they never Improve on the great titles they've made ). We'll xbox I don't know it's just crap to me :lol:

gamecube=crap
xbox=crap
Ps2=not crap, awesome :laugh:

i'm sick of ppl calling the gamecube a crap babies system...the controller takes about a minute to get used to and so what if it some of the games r aimed at younger people, i mean its better for them to have games set for a wide veriety of ages instead of just trying to get one age group to buy it, and i doubt that there will be many little kids trying to buy resident evil or bmx-xxx(which is only censored on ps2...haha)

<span style='font-size:17pt;line-height:100%'> X BOX</span> IS THE BEST !

areas where GC is crap compared to the other 2:

PS2 Xbox GC
CPU Clock Speed: 294.912 MHz 733 MHz 485 MHz

GC wins in this cateogry against PS2 but doesn't come close to Xbox.

GPU:

PS2
150 MHz Sony
"Graphics Synthesizer"

XBox
250 MHz NVidia
"XGPU"

GC
202.5 MHz ATI
"Flipper"

GC wins again against PS2, but not Xbox, close tho.

Polygons Per Second:

PS2
66 million (raw)
Xbox
125 million (raw)
GC
6-12 million (with game effects on)

In this category, GC is COMPLETELY outclassed by the other two.

PS2 Xbox GC
Media Capacity: 4.7 GB 9 GB 1.5 GB

Same, GC is COMPLETELY outclassed by the other two.

Media:

PS2: CD-ROM/DVD-ROM

Xbox: CD-ROM/DVD-ROM

GC: 15mm Optical Discs

GC discs can't be burnt, but it really doesn't matter that much. GC can't play CD-ROM or DVD-ROM tho, which is a downside.

Memory Card: Xbox and PS2 have 8MB memory cards while GC only has 4MB, but it doesn't really matter that much.

PS2 Xbox GC
Audio Channels: 48 channels 256 channels 64 channels

GC beats PS2 by a small margin, but Xbox completetly destroys the other two.

As you can see, GC is better than PS2 by a little, but certainly NOT close to Xbox.

SSJKarma 01-07-2003 01:13 PM

well, looks like XBOX them self made amistake, cause i remeber them comparing the systems at first and GC was close enough, but still this is the real nintendo.

hadoken king: your stupid !

GC has great titles too you know !
PS2 has what, MGS2, DOA2H, GTA3 thats about all the great games they have and now the xbox has them too !
so you see, your with sony because it is sony not because of the games themself !

think before talking and go see all the games that are out for PS2, we all have them on XBOX and GC too !
name me just one GREAT title that PS2 have that other engine don't !

conclusion: if i want a dvd player, i,ll go with XBOX, if i want playability, i'll go with XBOX if i want games, i'll go with XBOX ! face it, sony lost the competition in this one ! just like the dreamcast did !
