Why must N8 torment me?

So based on an off comment by N8, I went browsing on Amazon.com to see how many games are available for PS2 now, that will never be out for GameCube, that I would consider buying.

For Xbox this came up with about 2 or 3 games, and all but Halo are also out on PS2.

For PS2 this comes out to 14 games, and that's just a casual browsing on Amazon.com, and also doesn't include any upcoming games that I might like.

14 games is hard to shake a stick at, and hard to ignore. Why must I be tormented? Perhaps there is someone who owns a PS2 and has had such a bad experience that they wish to warn others away, and such comments might stop me before I buy again...

I have a comment...

You should just give in to the dark side and get the PS2. It's an addiction and the first step to getting over that addiction is to admit that you have a problem. The second step is to remove the temptation of buying a PS2 by going out and picking one up.

It's looking like the new systems are 1-2 years out so you should get some decent life out of a PS2 (and/or XBox) unlike the time I picked up a Dreamcast on the advice of my old college roommate mere weeks before Sega announced that they were hanging it up.

So I shouldn't buy a Dreamcast?
