X-Box OR PlayStation2

Ok, here's the story...

I bought an X-Box back in 2001 a few months after it came out, and the first game I bought was Halo. In Summer 2003 someone stole my CD case full of like 10-12 games, and since I wanted to try something new I was like f**k it, I'm trading in the XBox for a PS2.

Now, Halo 2 has come out and I really want to get it. I know GTA: San Andreas is out and only for the PS2, but I'm sure it will eventually come out for XBox. Plus, you can buy modded XBoxs online that allow you to save DVDs and games to the system's hard drive, so I think I might sell my PS2 and once again buy an XBox.

What are your thoughts? Do you prefer the XBox or the PS2? And also, has anyone here heard of the modded XBoxs and know any more specifics?

Edit: Heh...talking about XBox and Halo has put a Halo 2 ad at the top of this thread. :lol:

xbox is better. i dont have one but i have many friends with them. my friend also has an xbox and its modded. he bought some chip and had his friend (who knew how to do it) put the chip thing in. or you could buy it online like you said. my friend, the one with the modded xbox, downloaded games and played them without problems. i have actually played some of the games too. xbox has better games and its a better buy for your money, will last longer, and only costs $150.

Both are priced at $150. I'd take PS2. XBOX may have some cool games, but PS2 has more games that are pretty cool themselves. Either way, you can't lose.

You will be waiting for a long time for GTA:SA to come out on X-Box. How about just have both? Unless you don't have the money.. then you could just get H2 for PC. But i'd keep the PS2, and try to buy an X-Box.

I have a modded xbox myself, and I love it. I can use my xbox and a media center, it can play vcds, svcds, dvds, etc, i can stream music or movies from my computer to the xbox so i can watch it on the tv. A modded xbox is a pretty good investment. If you are a big online gamer, XBOX Live is just an awesome experience. If you need any help regarding modding xboxs, dont hesisitate to IM me at fldude2k1 or PM me.

I'm with you on that one, Jay. :D I'm watching UCF right now and we're up 7-0 against Ball State. Alex Haynes just became UCF's all time leading rusher. :) :D God I'd love a win.

PLAYSTATION 2 is better than ne other system. their games are way better. gamecube has a bunch of kiddy games. xbox has some good games once in a while with halo and splinter cell, but ps2 just has great games constantly coming out. example: gta san andreas, metal gear solid 3, killzone.

halo 2 is a good game. i like killzone a little bit better tho. halo 2 has the vehicles which are sick, but killzone just has a great atmosphere to play in. its so much fun.
