Playing the same game on a PS2 and a XBox 360...holy shit what a difference!
The game? "The Legend Of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon."

I now have the PS2 version and the XBox 360 version.

The XBox 360 version is light-years ahead in graphics, (even the mushrooms move as you walk past!) sound, and play.
The XBox controller is actually easier to use than the PS2 one.

3. Yes they are.
I think there no longer will be made any PS2 games, but that's to be expected.

I have a PS2, Gamecube and XBox 360 now.
Considering I used to have Pong, then the Atari 2600, then the NES, then a PS1, games have improved by leaps and bounds.

4. Yeah, those where the days when WE as kids KNEW how to fix the games
when they froze. Take the game Blow on it and stick back in.


BTW Frogger anyone?!

5. Frogger's just one of the many classic games available for the XBox.
The Sonic series, Frogger, Tempest, Battlesone, even Intellvision games are available as discs or downloads.

6. After I got a 360, I could never go back to the PS2 controller again


It just isn't natural

8. I'm just worried that...
after years of being spoiled by more ergonomic controllers, I'll never be able to play with the grey plastic rectangle of an NES controller again.
