    What is better for sports games...

    PS2 or XBOX. I like my gamecube for everything but sports games. I feel it definatley has the best first party games, but for sports what would you suggest, PS2 or XB

    Nick, I was wondering the same thing (I asked it on another thread)....since Sega decided to cut off the Cube, and it looks like most of the baseball titles will not be released for the Cube, I'm ready to get a new system. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

        XBOX.
        Harddrive for multiple saves including replay saves if game has that ability.
        Better sound and graphics.
        PS2 has sharkport so you can get updated rosters. However for me once I start my own franchise that does not matter. In the case of ASBB 2004 it will have updated rosters through LIVE.

        IMO the XBOX is the way to go...

            Most users are going to tell you Xbox because of Live. I'll be able to answer that in a couple weeks when I pick up an Xbox and get the Xbox version of games now I play.

            Online play hands down will be Xbox, if your broadband. Sole reason why I decided to go forward with getting an Xbox and holding off on a GC til the sale starts.

            Most titles look better on the Xbox too so if your a grpahic whore that will be a plus as well.

            Ive been I guess you could call it a 'fanboy' of Sony for a long time, but I think that will be changing. Just hearing way to much good about an Xbox to keep from taking the plunge.

                    What kind of a TV do you have that you don't notice the difference? Bump mapping etc...
                    Also 5.1 surround sound...
                    To each his own but you will be missing out. And LIVE is the only online system, in town...IMO

                        XBOX has noticably better graphics (textures in particular) than the PS2. Its the obvious buy for sports games.

                            XBOX

                            1. graphics----unless your a huge EA man...cuz EA makes them for PS2 then ports them over to the box---sure they looks better on XBOX vs PS2 but EA DOESNT take advantage of XBOX hardware

                            1a. graphics-----think forward---HDTV...XBOX is HD capable.
                            this years WSB (XBOX only) is programmed for HD

                            2. audio---DD 5.1

                            3. HDD--hard drive..save all the instant replays you want

                            4. SMOOTHER frame rates---hardly any slow down]

                            5. FASTER load times (by almost 40 seconds with tigr woods)

                            6. CONTROLLER----get the CONTROLLER-S--just like the dual shock





                            Bummed that you're not on my ignore list yet?.....Don't worry, I'm sure you will be very soon.
