I never really played either the original Playstation, or the PS2, besides maybe a few minutes on some store demo units. It just never seemed to me like either system had any must have titles.

I grew up on NES, which didn't have load times (but then the SNES started up with those annoyingly long producer logo screens that they made you watch, and sometimes there was like 8 of them).

Normally I don't put down other peoples opinions but thats the stupidest arguement against the xbox that I have ever heard.

Thats like saying my commodore64 was better than my current 2ghz laptop because it turned on instantly and I didn't have to wait for it to boot up.

Add the cost of the PS2 to that, you might as well buy a PC. The xbox makes a very cheap linux PC. Especially now that you can load Linux on it without putting in a mod chip or voiding your warranty. Well technically loading Linux would void your warranty but you could reverse all your changes and remove Linux so that they couldn't tell that you did it.
