Xbox vs PS2 longevity and durability?

[Ashwyn]

With the price drops looming on the horizon I say get both!

When and how much? I've been saving to get an X-Box and I'd gladly wait a little longer to pay less.

If it's going to happen before the end of the year (starting with September) it will be announced around E3 (which I believe is in May).

Okay, I bought an Xbox. Now what are the better games? I don't want an FPS because they give me migraines trying to watch them. 3rd person perspective isn't bad for a game. I'm not really into the "do nothing but run around and shoot things" game either.

Sports games appeal to me along with RPGs or fantasy themed games. I'm also looking for good ones for the kids to play (age 6 and 4). Suggestions?

Knights of the Old Republic? A friend of mine is addicted to that game...

Beyond Good & Evil, Prince of Persia, Shenmue 2, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater (I'd suggest three to start, not that it matters much)

Ok, bought Crimson Skies and Knights of the Old Republic on Ebay today. I actually screwed up and now own 2 copies of KotoR, so if anyone is interested in buying a copy, email me.

I'm thinking real strongly about Star Trek: Shattered Universe and MechAssault as the next ones on my buy list.
