    Question Just wondering...for people with multiple consoles...?

    if a game comes out for all 3 consoles, which one do you buy it for? All of my friends that have the Xbox and PS2 ALWAYS buy the game for the Xbox...anyone else do the same thing, or are you an idiot?

    Well, I own all three consoles and I buy the Xbox version every time. Some of the games I would get for Gamecube, just because I don't have may games for it. I also prefer my Xbox over my other systems.

    Thats cool. I would buy another console, but none of the games insterest me at all on the gamecube, and my friends get te ps2 games that i like (both of them), so i just have my Xbox...and my N64...

    I originally only had an Xbox but a few games made me buy other systems. I can understand about the Gamecube, I can't find many games that interest me either. I bought mine just to have one in case Sonic was exclusive.

    Stupid EA. They had EA Seattle do the Xbox and Gamecube version and they did an awful job.

    I'll agree it was fun on Playstation. I use to have the game along with a steering wheel. The Playstation 2 version had the better physics though.

    Well i have all three and it really depends on the rating and what console it plays better on.Say for example Timesplitters 2 i got that for ps2 because i like the controller set up for it.Other games like The Thing and MK i get for the xbox because of the tighter visuals.

    i own all 3 next gen systems and ill usually buy a multi-platform title for PS2 because i think its the most comfortable controller. the only reason i wouldnt is if another version had extra features.....for example if i were to buy BMX XXX id buy it for xbox cause the ps2 version is censored.

    One of the main things that keeps me away from buying the Playstation 2 and Gamecube version is I need to save on a memory card. It's not the big of a problem for me to get a game on Gamecube because I have a memory card 251. I usually hate buying memory cards.

    I'd buy the Xbox version on multi-platform games... and Flood... I respect your opinion ....but to me... the controllers on PS2 suck... the Xbox "S" controller is the best of all of them... and I have all 3 systems plus Dreamcast and other older ones... I don't see how anyone can actually like the ps controllers.

    I see, thats understandable. Timesplitters 2 looks like total shìt no matter what system you buy it for...



    Personally, I like the original Xbox controller the best. Im getting used to the S controller cause i play with it at EB every time i go there, and i play Quantum Redshift in Bst Buy all the time as well...but I still have to look down to find the white/black buttons and the start/select (ok, back...) buttons.

    I absolutley hate the ps2 and gamecube controllers...dont know why, thats just my preference...

    Almost all games I buy are for the Xbox unless they are exclusive to the other systems. When it comes to multiplayer games or FPS games the Xbox is the only way to go due to Xbox Live, system link, and the fact that Sony didn't make the POS2 with 4 controller ports, and there is no way in hell im going to pay 30+ bucks to buy an adapter to do what Xbox and GameCube do out of the box.
