Just seen the thread about the new X Box package for £199, and it looks tempting, especially with Splinter Cell bundled in there.

I have a PS2 and love it to bits, so is it a bit greedy to go buy an X Box as well? Anybody have both? If so, how do you have them setup - both into one TV, separate rooms etc?

I have both. Bought the Xbox on day of release and bought a second hand PS2 in the summer for GTA3 primarily.

Have them either side of the TV with the PS2 going through my Digital amp. It only required an optical cable where as I need other bits for linking the Xbox up which I haven't got round to buying yet.

I use the Xbox more because me and three mates meet up every Thursday at my house and we always end up racing with Project Gotham Racing or blasting away at each other with Halo. You can't beat four player mode on the Xbox. Multiplay is where it's at.

Dreamcast
N64
PSX
SNES
... Xbox and Dreamcast sitting next to the TV. I connected them with a 2x scart-cable (female) to 1 scart-cable (male) allowing RGB signals on both (females).

Really greedy and a complete console tart

dogmaul

I say, choose the game carefully, then buy the platform to play it on.

Thommo

I have all the above platforms, and have them routing through a junction box and my amp in to my tv. Can get very messy with that many cables etc.

Definitely not greedy, you just know what you like/want.

surprised with all the old skool consoles people have got, but has no one (apart from me) got the Jaguar, Saturn, Neo Geo(import), master system,NES and of course the ultimate in home entertainment the Atari 2600??

IMHO buy all the consoles you want all the games you want and enjoy them.

Cheers

dogmaul

never did hav jaguar, but did have nes and master system also had saturn

JackClark

Friend has two Atari 2600's for sale if anyone wants one - or two.

I have Xbox and PS/2 one upstairs one down, both online.

Dream Weaver

JackClark

Linksys USB ethernet adaptor. Only game I play online is Tony Hawk, but I'm a skate freak anyhow.
