PS2 vs Xbox 

But the ps2 won that generation. Slighty due to some people buying it as a dvd player. But mostly games. Though I will always love the OG xbox more

xbox this gen had a rough start

@@chadchadington8876 and will probably have another rough start next gen. You know, with lack of must play launch exclusives and a controller that has technology two generations old. Just because it feels nicer, doesn't mean it's new. Give me a gyroscope or something

@@teneesh3376 did you see how many launch titles they revealed? The PS5 controller features sounds cool but in reality why do you need gyro or motion sensor on a controller? Joy cons are understand cause they're separate controllers but an actual controller doesn't need it. I hope the elite controller 3 has the haptic feedback that the PS5 controller has

@@mmm.3839 honestly, there weren't any titles that excited me. Not even halo. Though the 343 games have disappointed me Also a gyroscope is great for gyro aiming. A much better way to aim then using the analog sticks. And if you don't like it, you can turn it off. But the majority of people who have tried using gyro aiming prefer it. PC users utilize the features of the ps4 controller way more then sony ever has. But also, the controller is going to be more expensive at launch. So what's the point for the controller being more expensive, other then "it feels better"

What about KoTOR, Elder Scrolls, Fable?

I wish we could get RPGs like that again

Smt3 Dds1 & 2 persona 3 and 4

That was ps1

It was you dio

True but the Xbox was so much more powerful than the PS2 it's hard to believe that the Xbox didn't do better

@@jackmeoff9299 At that time, games are everything, I had PS2 then and if I had to choose again, I would choose PS2 again, because it had the most and the best games. Back then even 3rd party games were exclusive from Capcom, Square-Enix, Konami, Rockstar and many others that were not available on any other platform. When I think of 2001 only when Xbox and GC came out for comparison and also compared to today crazy how many excellent game (Ico, Silent Hill 2, Gran Turismo 3, Metal Gear Solid 2, Devil May Cry, Final Fantasy 10, Jak and Daxter, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3, Onimusha, SSX Tricky, Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance, Ace Combat 4, Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 2, Grand Theft Auto III) all this in one year and almost all PS2 exclusives, later some also came to Xbox. This is the reason GAMES, not the power of the console.

@@sjuric2435 I actually owned the Dreamcast the PS2 and the Xbox I purchased them all when they came out absolutely loved the Dreamcast because it truly mimicked arcade quality graphics but unfortunately it lacked 3rd party support I felt the PS2 was a failure because it was more powerful than the Dreamcast but unfortunately much of the rendering it did lacked quality in the Dreamcast usually had a sharper and nicer picture and hands down the Xbox was King with a phenomenal game lineup I still own a fully Modded Xbox with every game ever made for Xbox on it including thousands of others I also still have my Dreamcast but I no longer have a PS2

@@sjuric2435 once you play an Xbox game and then go play the same game on a PS2 you would think the Xbox was a PS3 by comparison

@@jackmeoff9299 I've never had a Dreamcast, but the PS2 was stronger and quite a lot. Especially in games that printed a lot of physics and geometry like MGS2, Jak and Daxter, Shadow of Colossus, etc. Later games improved the picture quality a lot on the PS2 when they started to come with 480p support. There were also a lot of myths that the PS2 doesn't have or uses anti-aliasing, the truth is that none of those consoles used anti-aliasing in games because it was too demanding for the consoles of that time, including the Xbox, even though it is supported by hardware like the Gamecube. What the PS2 lacked was mipmapping, so the games had that characteristic PS2 look. Last week I read on the Beyond3d forum why the Game Cube never got a Burnout 3 port because it's CPU couldn't handle the game, first of all collisions and car geometry were hard to deal with on GC CPU and the game depends on a smooth 60fps. Interesting read, I didn't know that.

Nope👈

Nah! I love them all myself.

I do too. The whole "console war" shit is obnoxious and dumb.

I love them all but I prefer Sony

I love them all fellow jo jo fan

The only console I have out of the current Gen is a Switch. I'm still saving up money to get an OG Xbox, 360 and PS2 before I even think about getting any more new consoles.

@@chironthecuddley6144 check on shopgoodwill.com. You can routinely find both of those consoles for very cheap.

@@JeromeADavis My local shops have them rotating in and out constantly, so I can find them pretty easily for cheap.

I currently have a Xbox one, PS4, Wii and Gameboy. I used to have a Xbox 360, PS1 and PSP but no longer do. Technically I've still got the PSP but it's broke.

No the Wii U the best Jk

I love the PlayStation, the PC, and Nintendo switch, I'm not sure about the Xbox tho

Not all, depends on the gen. Nintendo got a HUGE dub for the Wii, failed the Wii U, then came back for the switch.

Agreed I love Playstation, Nintendo, Sega and Xbox. If Sega brings out a console, I will buy it even if it doesn't have any exclusive games.

Not all consoles are amazing

Same

Ps2 honestly was trash. Xbox And GameCube we’re better

@@Hardcoredawg420 in my opinion how was it trash?

@@Hardcoredawg420 are you joking ? ps2 is like the best console ever made

I mean yeah, but they could have done better with sonic heroes for ps2

But it had scratch problem, if dvd had light lil bit scratches theres chance of Error in readin

@@IvanHernandez-kn5gg While I can say from experience that Sonic Heroes definitely runs best on the Xbox, its mostly on frame rate and is very much not without its other problems lol. Shadow the Hedgehog I think uses the same engine but better optimised tho, for how divisive the gameplay mechanics can be. Can say from experience also that it does NOT run better on the PS2 either though, lmao. Could not have been more glad to finally get my hands on an Xbox copy of that game after so long, several years later.

First console with CD's, DVD's and games at the same time. I remember hearing this all the time.

I'm so glad to see you here. All three guests have a wealth of gaming knowledge and its great that you made your voices heard. Love to see more of this.

You ruined the video. Thanks. 😢

@@MobileDecay 😂

Sad you made friends with Xbox online

Crts work very well even with non native resolution not like LCDs

Crts are underrated, we got rid of them because they were big, heavy and sucked alot of electricity, but not because they didn't provide a clear picture with vga/rgb, component or s-video, with smoother motion compared to Lcd with a natural contrast and color. HD PC Crt Monitors are esp great too, and can be used for modern and retro console or pc gaming without clarity loss between resolutions as superuser said.

@@retrosoul8770 I definitely agree with you, also CRT's had no input lag (well, the analogue ones) and better motion IMO.

@@jaydenmclean8786 You can rest assured man, the superior motion of crt over lcd is a fact, no imo is necessary. There are modern lcd techniques like strobing and black frame insertion because engineers know crt-like motion is better. If you haven't heard of this you can compare this motion test on any lcd (even your phone) and crt and immediately see the clear difference. Interesting stuff. www.testufo.com/framerates#count=1&background=stars&pps=960

I remember. It looked awesome.

I remember. It looked awesome.

Yes I remember! Splinter cell was amazing.

That was the game that made me want an Xbox.

@@bopsa yea what happen??

Can’t forget those games

I see no problem with that...

👌🔥Melee... what an experience!

I'll always remember that day. It hurts

Sega still makes great games though they left the console market.

@@SuiteLifeofDioBrando uhhhhhhh

Sega

@@thetalkativefos716 anything but me

Pretty much!

hmm idk... Sony, Microsoft, Sony & Sega all going at it... I might have to agree.

The generation just before dlc, day 1 patches and a giant lack of 2d games. Though to be fair, only sony had a controller which is decent enough for 2d games. Xbox's dpad was bad and the gamecube's was tiny

@@teneesh3376 wut? there is no shortage of 2D games lol... especially if you play on PC.

@@thebotfather9508 there were on home consoles at least. Handhelds and pc is a different thing that doesn't apply to this conversation. That's a whole different can of worms. On the top of my head (talking about games made specifically for that gen and not retro rereleases), there was mega man 8, I think a metal slug game, alien hominid was ported to consoles, marvel vs capcom, street fighter 3s, and... that's all I can think of. Though do tell me some 2d games. I would like to add to the collection

Facts. I just watched a ps2 Vs Xbox hype BBC news video from 00/01. It flows exactly like this video, only this video is obviously better as it has all the info. Great stuff

I think it’s more of PlayStation vs Xbox, XCloud, GamePass, and PC at this point.

@@stinkynacho2362 nope it's actually PlayStation vs streaming

I disagree Microsoft is competing with Netflix so...

Since when was movies and TV shows even remotely similar to video games? The movie and video game markets are two completely different markets

@Sonic the hedgehog Ummmm, the Xbox consoles still exist tho? We’re not there yet buddy 😂

Atari versus Apple

@Vertex no, kids these days don't even know what Sega is, and since every virgin is playing fortnite I doubt they care about Nintendo and Sega

@@SunnyMin_ 😂

@@SunnyMin_ bitches grow up with Fortnite on PS4, but legends grow up with Super Mario Galaxy on Wii.

HeyItsMeAlex16 no one plays fortnite anymore lmao, also everyone knows sega, who doesn’t, everyone knows sonic

Eddie Hoo DVD player was the selling point for kids to convince parents to buy it. More than a gaming system.

@@zzygyy man I know I used it as a bargaining chip lol!

No, the biggest reason was the hype from the ps1, which sold 100m units,

@@MemeMaster-gz7nk you obviously weren't alive back then. No, it being a the cheapest DVD player was the biggest reason it sold 50 million more than any other console

@@EddiXP yes dvd players we're expensive and it was a huge selling point, however it wasn't the greatest reason for the ps2 success. You really think right after the first one sold 100 million the second wouldn't have more?

Nathan Nesen don’t get me wrong the PlayStation has some awesome games. But something about that startup screen gets me every time.

i had a ps2. I've always wanted to play an og xbox. of course i have a 360 and one.

@@Spiccolo1202 Never too late! They are still relatively cheap on eBay.

And the graphics too

The ps2 was disgustingly underpowered. I enjoyed mine but if I had an Xbox I wouldve been having a Blast with Xbox live and halo.

Let me also add that all your content is high qaulity! This one just stood out for me.

and #PonyBots

I've always had both the only difference is the exclusives

Definitely it played a part of the ps2 success

Its a video game console. Foe video games. Who didnt have a dvd player. Plus super easy to mod and burn games to the hdd. Xbox was a beast.

What I came to the comments for. How could they fail to mention this? It was a HUGE reason they sold 150 million consoles. Sure there were great games, but that was an often talked about topic at the time. Want one of those new fangled DVD players? You'd be pretty dumb to not buy a PS2.

I hated the fact that they forced you to buy the remote to play DVDs. I wanted to see my Shrek without having to shell out an extra $20.

Jo12dan James calm down fanboy

Xbox had DVD playback as well, but I’m pretty sure you needed an add on to play DVD movies and music. Correct me if I’m wrong

@jackthegamer No, you needed an add-on. It was small and it plugged in the front, and I owned one.

@@IBrokeMySpaceKey yeah it had that kit, reason why it’s separate because it would’ve made the Xbox more expensive.

Only thing is halo infinite running on series x hasn't been seen by any of the public

2 and 3 both came to Xbox under the substance titles. Great games.

@@richardwatson5730 On Xbox 360 yes, via the HD Collection. Only MGS2 Substance arrived on the OG Xbox though. Snake Eater/Subsistence never arrived on the OG Xbox. And agreed! Replaying MGS3 currently. Still remember MGS2's demo on the PS2 that came with ZoE!

@@mrratchet I remember seeing a cardboard cutout that advertised 3 on Xbox and PC as well. Then they had to retract the Xbox logo and Kojima said it was a mistake and he never intended to put it on Xbox. Don’t remember what happened to the PC version.

And because of the success of ps1, the first console built up hype for the next

@@demonetization1455 ya I can get behind that as well

Agree

@Foaad Hisham I can also agree with that because i had a wii and a 360 they were also great

I believe Spyro A Hero's Tail and Crash Bandicoot Wrath of Cortex were available on all three platforms and maybe even Rouge Ops.

Gta san andreas. The og xbox had more loaded into the environment( trees, bushes, people, vehicles) and looked slighty sharper than the ps2 version.

No one played ps2 online. Everyone played XBOX LIVE

@@Texasmade713 ignorant. Stay in Texas.

@@briancoglitore4297 You are the GOAT my friend. Thank you!

In conclusion: Nintendo has the best 1st party games, PlayStation the best 3rd party games and XBOX/PC the best quality.

Luis Cruz Maybe there is something up with my brother’s Xbox One, but whenever we play it has to do an update or download that takes at least a half hour. And before that you have to sign in, confirm it with another device, etc etc. Kinda sounds like the annoying troubles you go through with PC. Is there a way to not deal with this on Xbox? I go PS and Nintendo (except I skipped Wii U), so I am not really familiar with Xbox. But I am sometimes curious to get it, for the game pass (if you think that’s worth it?). Other than that, what makes you go Xbox over PS? Is 3rd party quality just slightly better than on PS, or is there more to it?

Jehnsy93 I hope you don’t mind reading my above comment, I would like to hear your thoughts/opinions too. If not though that’s okay, I know I wrote quite a bit.

@@mikeoretta8818 I have a simple solution. I buy all the single player games that are available on Switch on the system but all the multiplayer games on PC. Exception for non demanding multiplayer games like Rocket League. But if you don't care about portability (what's wrong with you😝) go for PC/XBOX ONE.

very rich very rich.... got it, got it.. ai ai sir, please send me you old consoles, would help

@DOOMSlayer Ninetendo may not come out with a home console however statistically Xbox is ranked below Nintendo and Playstation but i do get your point of view

@@udhayramnath5861 Nah. XBOX is above PlayStation and Nintendo. Microsoft brought Hard Disk, Wireless Controllers, Subscription Services, Achievements and many more. Even games, Microsoft has varieities whereas Sony doesn't

Im on the opposite side. I have both but I collect heavily for the Ps2 now. Playing Ps2 games in 1080i GSM in widescreen on a 50inch HDTV with wireless ps4 controller is life lol

I've just ordered a OG Xbox can't wait to play the games that I played on PS2 back then 😊😊

@@mall231 and their exclusives, at the time og Xbox had alot of exclusives

New

yeah i remember everyone had it, i only knew 1 person who had xbox...xbox would have been good if it released before ps2

This comment didn't age well.

I have

I litterly just finished the vid

Oh wow your right for me

Shut it nobody cares all your doing is copying the BOTS

True, I only hate the Playstation fanboys

@@arthureaterofworlds5176 I only hate the Xbox fanboys

True, but I remember this quote so much "30 fps is more cinematic!" Hate it so much.

@@sonicthehedgehog1606 You pretty much right that's why I have a PC

@@arthureaterofworlds5176 I hate the pc elitist

xbox had better graphics but ps2 had better games

@@Gencturk92 any games that were on both its better on Xbox

@@SwampFox178 yeah but everyone in that generation had ps2, i only knew one person that had xbox
