Seriously before you spout that off think of their competition from the consumer's point of view:

XBOX:  

-Games looked a little better

-It was  huge with a hard to use controller

-Within a few months of its launch it cost $100 more than the now $200 PS2

-The PS2 had already been out for 19 months!!!

 

Gamecube:

-Games looked the same

-It couldn't play DVD's, CD's, or other media

-It looked like a Hasbro Kids Toy

-Within months of lauch the PS2 was the same price

-The PS2 had already been out for 18 months!!!


PS2 dominated because of the third-parties but won because of the brand. The Xbox and GC could have come out on the same day and would still have got trashed.
