Well i love the PS2 games so i will play them for life, but don't forget that sony has released info on PS3, while ps2 is bad, ps3 could come being better then we every expected. That is if sony doesn't **** it up, thats why i post feed back on there site about there bad ps2 quality.

GameCube is a kiddy console.

Just kidding, I just need to test out my new P226, and I figure I can get away with shooting someone trying to rip my digestive system out.

GameCube is not a console for gamers who want violent and/or mature games - it's a <b>RELATIVELY</b> kiddy system compared to the PC and Xbox.

Starchy · July 2004

Yes, I do have to say that the PS2 dvd player is the worst dvd player i've ever come across. It plays at the lowest quality i've seen and it buggers the sound up big time.

I don't wish to flame you TommyVercetti, but you really can't say that the Gamecube is a general kiddie system with plenty or gorey games. So in conclusion, you suck! <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' />

My friend's PS2 doesn't read DVD's anymore, and a lot of the times the sound/color will go out whilst playing game. And didn't Sony put Lead into the PS2? And isn't Lead the heaviest non-radioactive metal in the world?

Ness · July 2004

Yes, let's keep this to the consoles themselves (Design, durability, etc), as opposed to the games. Really don't need a whole battle of the fanboys.

Transmission · July 2004

My friend's PS2 stopped reading disks after a few months, so he had it sent back and it was returned. Since then there were no problems.

Maybe you could just put some filter paper over the intake parts to stop the dirt?

The Resident Evils, Eternal Darkness, MGS: Twin Snakes? All mature. All violent.

MedHead · July 2004

I don't think anyone here was denying that there were <b>some</b> violent games on the GameCube. The general feeling about the GameCube is similar to the N64 - very kid-oriented.

But let's take Ness-Earthbound's advice and drop the game comments. If you feel the need to reply to my post, so be it. I'm dropping it on my end.

Gadzuko · July 2004

To make a comment about the original post, I personally would recommend that you try putting the PS2 horizontal instead of vertical for a while. There could just be something about the environment you're putting it in that makes it screw things up more often when it's vertical, and there's also a much higher chance of scratching a disk if the PS2 is vertical. Unless there's a specific reason (as in, it doesn't fit), I'd say keep it horizontal. It's a lot safer that way.

ElvenThief · July 2004

For those who are praising the XBox's prowess, keep in mind that it was more well known for mangling the crap out of disks, especially DVDs.
Unfortunately, any links that had examples of the slaughtered DVDs are about 2 or 3 years old and I doubt are up at all.
I guess no system is perfect (except for my Cube).
Although I should note that my roommate's PS2 had never had a problem until he let me try to install his mod chip. Ugh.

Zig · July 2004

feef, i think that depends on the type of disk drive you have in yer 'bawx. there are quite a few variations.

lagger · July 2004

Never had a problem with my ps2 since day one.

Melatonin · July 2004

I got my PS2 on day one [UK]... couple of years down the line and the drive was so knackered i got £40 for it on a trade in... (which was quite good since it didnt actually play games any more <img src='http://www.natural-selection.org/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /> )

imho the PS2 is even worse then the NES for longevity...

Talesin · July 2004

I'd say that is yet to be seen, given that I still have two NES power decks, and both of them still work. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' />

My Xbox has never marred any of the disks I've used with it...

[edit]And stop calling me a fanboy, I have both Xbox and GameCube![/edit]

Talesin · July 2004

Just as my PS2 has never broken, my NES have never broken, there are truly enjoyable games on the GCN (even for adults), and the xbox might not be the cause of the doubled hernia rate on its release day.

The fact of the matter is, as the subject is presented, people draw inflections to tinge future posts. And you do come off as pretty fanboyish. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' />

Having two unbroken NES decks is more a feat of luck than anything else. Those machines were not built to last, they break on a regular basis.

Mine still works perfectly, infact its the games I mainly have problems with.... Rubbing alcohol makes it all work good as new though <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' />.

Oh yeah, my NES has gone through a bit of abuse mainly since it was 4 little children playing that NES nearly every day, and a rabbit chewed through one of the cords hafaf <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' />.

Pulse · July 2004

Almost every single NES I have ever used or seen used has overheated after about fifteen minutes of use. I always thought it was just poorly designed, but maybe I just have bad luck.

I think its a little of both, but my NES has worked quite well since the day I got it.

I should go test out how well it works, although the controllers are a pain..... square and the cords get all kinked up :/.
