SonicDX, gamecube does go online !
otherwise marve| VS CAPCOM II ONLINE play without be made for it, and PHANTASY STAR ONLINE V3 wouldn't be existing either !

atually the XBOX and PS2 gives only HIGH SPEED which reduce highly their ONINE players cause many are still on 56K. but the gamecube offer a 2 in 1 modem which includes 56K and HIGH SPEED capability !

as for hardware wise.... yes it does matter !
as the games that are XBOX only would never run at full speed on a PS2 because it hasn't the power to run them full graphics and full speed.

take a game, analyse it for the PS2 and see how limited he is compared to the XBOX games !
example:
all PS2 games can be easily ported to XBOX, but games on XBOX cannot be ported without losing some graphics int he process !

PS2 games doesn't use ANTI-ALIASING 8X to smooth graphics, because it doesn,t have the power to do so, but XBOX can and easily does.

XBOX does easily LIGHING and TRANSFORM which the PS2 have only basics.

thus you do say the games are better yet in fact they are way more pretty on xbox then on PS2 has the PS2 needs to have a lot less GPU power then XBOX.

basically, you play a game on XBOX, FULL graphics. but the same game on PS2 is like MEDIUM to LOW graphics compared to xbox !

as for gameplay, well i see DOA3 as a very addictive fighting game and i see it way better then DOA2 HARDCORE. also i see the game DRAGON (bruce lee) as a very great beat em up game, those are just example of games you will never find on other consoles other then XBOX.

as for those who say i like the PS2 controller better that why XBOX sucks... well the controller doesn't make the console you know ! anyway... did you even know that i can easily use my PS-PC-GC-N64-DC-SNES-NES controller on my XBOX ?

if you had gone onto ZOPHAR.NET before they closed down their STORE, you would have find all the adapters you needed to be able to use other controllers on your different consoles ! their was also a way to plug in N64 controllers into your PC and like 4 of them at the same time !

really, with all this stuff going around right now, one wonder why he wants more then a computer whic generates the very same game and has way better graphics then any consoles anyway !
