I read a cool article, an like I said, I'm a nintendo nut. I didn't realize that the N64 Did so well, but man, that thing outsold playstation for months. Well, anyways, Nintendo's still at the head of the game market is what they were pointing out; which I didn't realize, I thought Sony Playstation sold much more than Nintendo, but not according to them.Well, now, Playstation 2 has been out a few years, Gamecube and XBox have been out 1. For several months, XBox has been outselling both... which is understandable for playstation, since they've been out a while, but they've been whippin' up on the gamecube. They're saying, also, that since most third party games come out for several systems, now, that the only chance Nintendo really has to win this one is if they come out with some just kick ASS first party games; they came out with SEVERAL this year, but they're still not winning, so things are looking bad, at least to the point that they'll be second place instead of first; they'll always make money, just maybe not as much as microsoft. They also make tons of money off the gameboy advance, basically the only hand held system out right now. The Gameboy still stands, too, as the most profitable system of all time... you'd think that somebody would challenge them on that now that gamegear went under.Anyways, Gamecube brought out Metroid, Mario Sunshine, Starfox Adventures, Luigis Mansion, all this year, and still aren't winning. For next year, all they've got lined up so far is Zelda, a more traditional Mario game, and Wario World. If they don't make it on them, they may be in big trouble, because the rest of the games are gonna look better on Xbox since it's a superior system.
I have all three, and have enjoyed the PS2 a lot more.... I spoil myself when it comes to games... but right now the ps2 game SOCOM is just blowing me away, i play it everyday... god i need to get my life going...-Big BpG

If XBOX could make GTA games...PS2 would be out of business...But there is one game PS2 will NEVER have...and thats Halo...Halo 2 will blow out GTA Vice City when it drops next year...some game critics are already calling it the "Greatest 1st Person Shooter EVER"...
