Konami apparently have stopped making games for the Xbox but then that's about it, infact if anything Publishers are pulling out of making Game cube games the Xbox has overtaking it in sales. Xbox live has sold out in it's first week in the US 150,000 units

nah not true... the whole basics behind xbox design is that it has the basic inards of a PC meaning that most games that can play on a pc can play on xbox .. in fact from what i understand the complete opposite is happening and xbox are realeasing more top games than any compnay .. also i belive microsoft have brough up rage software .. so they can develop games exclusivly for the xbox

I heard that the top Japense companies are not developing much for the Xbox now and that MS are having to use thier own resources to keep development on new games coming along.

Most of the people I know with XBoxs only seem to have a few titles and most of these people have PS2s also and buy more games for that as thier is wider choice they say.

I don't know myself as I've not really looked at XBox as I don't want to give money the MS , not after they way they have treated thousands of business with the changes to thier licecning schemes.

I totaly agree subster

I was an avid PS2 fan and wouldn't even consider buying an X-Box, then suddenly everyone I knew was buying one, in the end I caved in and bought one.

The graphics and the smoothness of the gameplay of the XBox is unbeleivable and I'm sure with X-Box live starting Beta testing over here and going live (if you parden the pun) in March 2003 the X-Box will start to make some headway on the PS2.

Xbox will never fail. You have the worlds biggest organisation behind it. If games companies stop writing for the platform, Microsoft will buy them and force them to. Simple as that.
