well, the thing is that i already have a ps2, but with halo, ninja gaiden and doom 3 in mind, plus i love graphics, who doesn't. That's where I'm stuck.

If you're a graphics whore (like me), go Xbox. I'm not gonna tell you again that Doom 3 on PC will be a more fulfilling experience than on the Xbox. You're obviously not listening.

That's my conundrum. No matter what, I'm gonna want to get the doom 3 experience. I would in a heartbeat buy it for pc, but my pc sucks and i won't get an upgrade for a long time. On the other hand, if I run it now, it will not run for shit i will lose the whole experience. At least if I buy xbox, i'll get great games like ninja gaiden and halo plus doom 3 to look forward to.

Jesus thinks you should get the Xbox, and I guess I agree. It's an excellent system, and if it's gonna cost too much to upgrade the PC, then it's probably worth it. A couple games I would suggest:

SSX3
Crimson Skies
Morrowind (also on PC, but you might have problems running it

)
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic

i rented ssx3 on ps2 and it was brilliant, so i may also buy that game. My question is, when I buy xbox, should i buy halo or ninja gaiden. I know that the reason to buy xbox is to get halo, but i also LOVE STAGED violence. I hate real world violence, but violence in music, movies and games i love and i know that ninja gaiden is pure violence

You should get SSX3. :P

I would say Ninja Gaiden. Halo is good, but I never understood why everyone thought it was a system-seller. Ninja Gaiden is excellent, but diabolically hard. If you haven;t played Splinter Cell and like stealth games, you might give that a try.

Syc - Okay, excuse accepted. Keep us posted on when you think you might bring that back.

PS2 all the way.
-I'm more of an RPG/puzzle game kind of person
-The only sports based game I'd ever play is SSX(original, Tricky AND 3) and I have all those for the PS2
-The only shooter (1p or 3p) I'd play is the Mechwarrior based games and I already have that on PC (joystick! Woo!)
-All the games from Mircosoft I would want to play come for PC and for cheaper than Xbox games. Mechwarrior is the only Xbox game I'd consider but I already have Mechwarrior4 + Black Knight for PC so...
