The Battle of the Consoles

True dat Moff. I guess XBox has Dynasty Warriors but ROTK is good stuff that is an annual purchase.

@gainy - Hmm... I think it was Master... You had a party, 4 characters in a 2x2 square. I remember a level called Creature Feature... You made spells but you had to store them in a glass bottle... sometimes. Ah yah, enemies left behind food. Screamer Slices and Worm Rounds and Dragon Steaks.

I've just made a tit of myself (I was thinking of another game)

Soul Callibur II is already out on GCN as well. And, (IMO) it is WAY better than the PS2 version. PS2 has slowdown and longer load times, and the graphics are more choppy. Their exclusive character is stupid, it would be much better if it was someone like Cloud, but no, it's some old 80 yr old guy from Tekken

I know SC is out for all three platforms, but it would be a bit silly for me to purchase a gamecube for the game when I can get it for the PS2 I already own (or the XBox I may be about to own).

As for the exclusive character, I hate the PS2 one as well. On the bright side, my favourite character from the Dreamcast version was Taki, and from what I've played of the sequel, she's was even better to play as. Besides, I'm more interested in the game itself than whatever unique character I can get...which is quite convenient really

Xbox has some good games like Halo and er... Halo. But I just don't need the "raw power" of it when I have my good old PC. PS2 has lots of games, but you have to buy an adapter for 4 player games, which is a big problem for me. I like my GCN because of its portability, games, and multiplayer support. Granted, Xbox and PS2 both have internet games, but when I want to play over the internet, I just use my PC. In short: PC for power and internet games and GCN for multiplayer and games that I like.

Agreed. Sonic Adventure is one of the best games I will ever play in my life.

Although I'm a big Nintendo fan, I voted Dreamcast for my loyalty to Sega.

Because the loyalty Sega showed to it's CUSTOMERS was so goshdarn strong, right? I feel personally slighted by Sega and it's marketing decisions.

PS2 of course.

Large number of Japanese-styled console RPGs.

Hell, XIII bought a GBA JUST to play FFTA. I'm sure he'll pick up some other games for it eventually but we all know FF is a big name to have signed to your console.

But I know who I stand behind in the 'console war'.

Just for the record, I never once played FFTA on the GBA SP, during my 100 hour game marathon thru Disgaea on the PS2 in my Malaysian home...
