xbox or ps2?

Im contemplating buying an xbox or ps2 just for the Warriors game. Anyone have a suggestion on which one I should buy? I checked ebay and they both seem to be about the same price.

For a higher amount of good, obscure, and exotic games, get a PS2.

For a few overrated (but still cool, don't get me wrong) games and lots of features, plus better graphics (and higher speed + power), go for Xbox. HD in the Xbox is a nice plus.

The choice is yours!

I have both systems, and even though Xbox DOES have better graphics, PS2s controller lay out is way better.

If you want Good graphics, thick online system, and good speed get xbox

If you want a Pretty good graphic, more original different games, better games in all categories ( xbox is mostly shooters and racers, while ps2 is a mix of everything), and only pay online for certain games, while other online is free. Go for PS2

I reccomend PS2.

xbox controller is easy once you get used to it. Takes about a week.

Anyone witha HDTV would be much better served with an xbox. PS2 games rarely ever support 480p or 720p modes. Both consoles have great games and most major releases are put out on both systems anyway.
It all comes down to what types of games you want or what you want out of the system. I like having the hard drive on my xbox and the great graphics although my ps2 gets used when I want some obscure japanese based game.

Both are great consoles.

great TV!
make SURE you get some good component cables! don't use the crappy ones that come with the xbox!
My pal was all angry at me saying the xbox didnt look any better than my ps2, but he saw a sizable difference when he used the component cables instead of the rca composite cables and remembered to set his xbox to HD!

Bear in mind, it won't make crappy games look great, it just makes things look sharper and crisper, like the difference between a broadcasted movie and a dvd.

hope that helps!
