197385 2003-12-05 02:11:00 xbox tends to have games more suited for a older audience take a look at the beast pack it is rated r16 while ps2 have older peoples games it tends to learn towards 12 year olds whereas xbox 15+. I have a xbox and would swear by it. Bring on Xbox live Brad H (738)
197386 2003-12-05 02:31:00 Yeah.. PSX... The PS1 was the name of the smaller released console of Playstation "one" which was named PSx, but now are both "PS1".

I thought that PS-X was being released in 2005?

197387 2003-12-05 02:34:00 They started planning it as soon as the PS2 was released, as they released it is a hurry and ill equipt. Your right about the approximate release of it, and that will be before a 2nd Xbox. Thinking about it, its not much more than a year away. Craig (448)

Nope, December 13 in Japan :D

But it is kind of sad that they've cut features out simply so that they release it before Christmas.

197390 2003-12-05 03:17:00 Jeez that's quick. At this rate they will end up like Sega, pumping out consoles like the hurried Saturn. Craig (448)
197391 2003-12-05 03:25:00 Bah.

The new model playstation coming out in december is a ps2 with a harddrive and media features,in no way is it a ps3 or anything else,its a ps2 with bells and whistles.
