I'm gonna send the pad out tuesday along with everything else that I have to ship out to everyone.
No way, I have to admit this and I'm serious, Halo kicks Counterstrikes ass, or any pc 1st person shooter for that matter, I've been hooked with the xbox online for hours and hours now. Its just too much fun, probably because i'm relaxed playing, on a nice big TV.

Yeah, it does, but only in terms of overall potential - most of which goes unused. AFAIK, id Software is about the only developer that regularly writes PC games for cutting-edge hardware; just about everything else is targeted for what was cutting-edge something like 12-18 months ago in order to maximize the potential customer base. Xbox developers get to target Xbox.

people will buy it as soon as they see the high quality of the system.
There was a discussion on a different forum a couple of months back. We got some input from a pro coder as well and basically, almost every game designer wants their game on XBox. Problem is, publishers want it on PS2 and occasionally the Gamecube if it's a kiddy game (Not saying Gamecube is a kiddies console, ask big publishers tho what they think).
It's a nad state of affairs
Coder wants game A to be on XBox for it's pontential
Publisher wants it on PS2 because of it's market share
Consumer B buys PS2 due to game A being on it
No-one buys XBox because they don't wanna play it's games.
XBox is the most powerful system out so I wanna see it do well as games on the machine will look their best. Gamecube is lucky since it has Nintendos games otherwise it wouldn't have it's foothold now.
PS2 is pants, sometimes you play a game and you KNOW your DC could do better than this shit, but it does have a few gems underneath a mountain of crap games

Gamecube is a better console for kids, for two reasons:
1) It's cheaper.
2) Nintendo is one of the few companies still regularly making games that both appeal to younger kids and don't suck, and all of those are going to be GC-exclusives.
A steady flow of really good "kiddie" games is very important for the industry. Microsoft and Sony are milking the "adult gamer" market, but what they don't seem to realize is that most of these adult gamers were once kids.
edit: After further research, I've come to the conclusion that it's far more likely that all adult gamers were once kids.
You say this as though the industry is somehow being unfair to Microsoft, but every console manufacturer has had to go through this - it comes with the territory.
That's debatable, but I won't get into it here. Suffice it to say that MHz != performance.
That's just because PS2 market leader right now. Developers and publishers of crap put out their crap because they only care about money, so naturally they go to the system with the biggest installed base. NES and SNES certainly had their own mountains of crap.
