on October 29, 3 hugely anticipated games will be released, each on its own console. Grand Theft Auto: Vice City on PS2, Phantasy Star Online: Episodes 1&2 on GCN, and Shenmue 2 on XBOX.

Now I dont know about you guys, but I think thats gonna be some big competition. Although GTA:VC will probly sell the best considering so many people will want it from after playing GTA3.

So pretend you have all 3 of those consoles (unless you do actually have all 3), and you have only enough money to buy one of these games. Which would you buy?

I would buy PSO on GCN.

:rolleyes:


Anyways, if I had money, i'd get PSO :p

But not much $$$, so i'll just end up with vice city or not. I don't think i even want it. I got bored with GTA3 :unsure: I want RE0 coming this November, thoughh :nod:

I'd get Shenmue (see avatar and sig), but I don't have an X-Box. I guess I'll have to settle for PSO, but I definatley want Vice City, but I just want PSO that much more...

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City... although I bet it'll be sold out and the like, I don't have it pre-ordered... But I sold SSB:M and FFX so I can afford GTA:VC :D :D :D :D

And I agree with Stu :p

I wouldn't buy PSO over GTA:VC in a bazillion million years... ;)

Of course that's just me, but still...

1st: Vice City
2nd: Shenume 2
Craptacular: PSO Ver 2

I am not paying online charges for that game, I already wasted enough money with Sega on NBA 2k3.

I would choose PSO 1&2.(Considering I only own a 'Cube). But next would be Shenmue 2. Than GTA:VC

On October 29th, next Wednesday, I am going in to a hibernation with my Xbox in my room playing Shenmue 2 until I milk every bit of sweetness out of it. 'twas the reason I bought the thing in the first place. 'nuff said.

I wont be getting any of them(Ill be too busy playing starfox cuz my brother is getting it for his b-day on the 26th), but If I had the money, and had a XBOX, I would get shenmue 2 without a doubt. BTW, I dont see that game selling too well on the X-BOX.

Since VC was delayed a week due to production not being able
to meet pre-orders I think this battle has already been fought
and won by GTA.

I'll only be getting GTA: Vice City. It comes out 2 days before Halloween and the rumours are still spreading. German site Newtechnix is reporting there might be a 2 player mode in GTA: Vice City. I know for a fact that this is BS. Also, they said the main character might be able to swim in water this time.

It's going to have to be Shenmue 2 as I have played the first game to death. then GTA3-V but i think I will pick it up for the PC as it will cost less Pluss I will not have any money left till after Xmas. As for PSO don't really want to play it at all gave it a go on the Dreamcast and it was ok but i don't think I really need to go back to this one.

keep in mind that PSO on GCN is the sequel to the PSO on DC, its not like you'll be playing the same game over again.
