it seems im the only one who bought a console for other things rather than games...

i was gonna buy a dvd player... then i decided i wanted it with divx support... the cheapest i could find was at 200 us dollars... i don't know why, but doing a search google sent me to xbox-scene forums to the xbmc section... only then i realized i could mod an xbox, install xbmc and play any type of audio and video currently supported on the pc, and with the ability of updating codecs n' stuff.... plus i could install a bigger hd and save all my movies in there...

games were just a secondary reason...

in the next couple of weeks i might be buying a ps2 *JUST* for GTA: San Andreas...

if you can wait, just d/l it when it comes out for pc in 9 months

I've bought them all just to play different games.

I even have an Atari Jaguar. POS

The only system I never got was an Intellivision.

Yous dissin jaguar! That thing rocked!

i got my PS2 for the sole perpose of GTAIII. First played it at a friends and was hooked. To this day all i have ever bought for my PS2 is GTAIII and VC, and SA soon

Same here. When I read a review of GTA3 I was so overwhelmed and excited about this game. Ended up paying a total of 350$ for Playstation 2 and GTA3

I have a few Costcos in my area. Don't they usually come in big pakages?

Yeah i probably wont buy anymore console games after San Andreas. A computer can do so much more.

I bought my Playstation 2 back when Xbox was just released, I bought it because I didn't really know much about the Xbox,PS 2 played PS one games, and DVD playback
