Cen, just because the Xbox has a faster processor and a better grafix chip doesn't make it better. If you're gonna go into specs then this should be about computers, because it doesn't matter for consoles, unless you're buying games for the sheer pleasure of watching fast load times (and on many games the PS2 is faster anyway).

Yes, what games are good is always an opinion, but there are games that are selected by common consensus to be deesignated 'good'. There's always the odd player out there who thinks Halo, or GTA, or Socom sucks, but they're still insanely popular, well made and bestselling games. And Xbox's only real claim in that area is Halo, while PS2 has a much larger selection and variety. So even if you don't like the GTAs and Socoms, there's plenty of other choices to appeal to you.

And PS2 is not much more adult oriented than Xbox. The reason they have so many more Teen and Mature games is because they have many more games period (I think over 900 to date).
