If you were going to buy a console for Racing/Driving and Sports games,
would you get a PS/2 or XBOX.

Do you really like fiddling with memory sticks, anyway?

I dunno, I still see it as "PS2 has GT3 and GTA3/Vice City, Xbox has
everything else". Rallisport Challenge, Sega GT 2002, Project Gotham,
Nascar Thunder 2003 (best version is on xbox), F1 2001, Moto GP,
Wreckless, Spy Hunter, Nascar Heat 2002, Crazy Taxi 3 (that's a joke,
son) and then the whole slew of new games that are exclusive or better
on xbox - Apex, Mercedes-Benz World Racing, Lotus Challenge, Colin
McRae 3, Driver 3, Midtown Madness 3, Pro Race Driver, Midnight Club
2, etc.
Sports? Xbox Live-enabled Sega 2k3 games all kick ass, High Heat
makes its debut next week, and there's also Rocky which was a great
game. The biggest non-multiplayer exclusive is of course Dead or
Alive: Xtreme Beach Volleyball. As if the xbox controllers aren't
hard enough to use with 2 hands.
The rest of the games kick ass too. Jet Set Radio Future (the reason
I bought one to begin with, really), Splinter Cell, Halo, Panzer
Dragoon, Mech***, Toe Jam and Earl 3, the Tony Hawk games, etc.
Xbox lacks in quantity but more than makes up for it in quality imho.
All of the good games coming out within the next few months are pretty
much xbox-exclusive or better on xbox as well, based on a quick flip
through EB's release dates.
Do you *really* want to fiddle with memorysticks and shitty online
support, Larry? =)

40 gets you a dreamcast, 10 gets you F335 Challenge, another 10 for
Metropolis Street Racer, 10 for Le Mans 24 Hour, 10 for Sega GT, 10 for
Sega Rally.
90 all up - with 5 cracking racing games
well -it's the only console I've got anyway

Yeah, I think the PS2 has had its day. It wasn't really a great day either.
Going back from Xbox to PS2 games is a much greater leap than going from PS2
back to Dreamcast games.
Of course playing games in full discrete 5.1 surround sound can't be
overlooked. The hard disk makes a big difference to the *** experience
as well.
The Sega sports games are brilliant simulations and make the EA Sports games
look like kiddie stuff.
As far as driving games on Xbox go, I haven't been that impressed, but I
still rate Project Gotham Racing higher than Gran Turismo 3 - mainly due to
GT3's boring handling and terrible AI.
You could do a lot worse.
Add in Vanishing Point and you've probably got a better selection than
you'll find on Xbox or PS2.
I'd have to give my vote to the Xbox. My PS2 has been sitting in a
drawer for 6 months.
and i can still use my old LWFFGP wheel on the PS2, even without the broken
pedals :)
