As you know, two months ago, I moved. It's been two months since I'd had a gaming system of my own to waste time with. Frankly, that's two months too long. I've talked my brother into shipping me a system and now I have to decide which one.
Playstation 2
Pros - I have more games for PS2 than I do for both other systems combined. Also, MGS3 and GTA:SA are two of my most anticipated games this holiday season. Also, I've been having mad VF4evo and Tekken Tag urges for the past week. Also, DDR.
Cons - There hasn't been much new on it to play lately. I also think this would be the most fragile system to ship, and my PS2 had been sketchy before I left. It may be on its death bed.
GameCube
Pros - Uh, ToS? I'm really excited for Metroid Prime 2. Paper Mario RPG is my most anticipated RPG this year. I've been awaiting Pikmin 2 since before I was conceived. It would probably be the easiest thing to ship.
Cons - Comparably small library. Fall release list doesn't compare to the other two guys.
Xbox
Pros - In my always-correct opinion, it's been having the most exciting new release year so far. I really want to get back to playing Thief 3, and I want to start Ninja Gaiden over, especially once that update hits. Also, cable connection will allow me to partake of Xbox Live. Oh yeah, Halo 2. I'm dying to hit up Full Spectrum Warrior and Riddick.
Cons - Will cost the most to ship, due to its weight. Outside of this years sextacular releases, there's not a whole lot of grade A games for the system that I particularly care about.
Also, any shipping advice would greatly be appreciated. What's the safest and most efficient way to send these fragile beasts cross country.
Also note that I'll likely be going back home in October to grab more of my stuff. At that time, at least one more console will be coming with me.
I do have my GBA with me, thank Dagon.
