We all hear these rumours that PS2 DVD playback is very poor compared to other DVD's, and the pitiful amount of Video Ram which is only 4Meg compared to the DC's 8Meg, but are they just rumours?, no its a FACT. One time I could not wait to get hold of the PS2, but after seeing it run side by side next to the dreamcast, it F*%~#g sucks big time. Oh well I will just have to wait for something else, or I just might get the DC.
By the way I found out what the PS stands for "Pile a S**t".

I'm a bit of an Idiot ay!! "NOT".
If you would've took the time and read my reply "SSLOWWLY", you would have noticed that I was all for the PS2, 100%, I wanted it so bad I would have killed for it. I have a friend who works for a software development company, Not allowed to mention the name. This person informed me that PS2 is not all that much different than the DC, and this Person KNOWS what he/she is talking about. At first I did not want to believe he/she, I was still going to get the playstation 2 not matter what was said by anybody, Untill I was invited to a Demo of some software running on both the PS2 and DC, I was shocked, I could not believe my eyes, they had proved to me that the PS2 was not that much different if any at all to the DC. I was informed of the problems that are going to arise with the PS2, 2 Facts:-Only 4MB of Video Ram, and no Anti-aliasing, and more.
If I had not seen it with my own eye's I would never have believed it, and I was about to buy an Imported PS2, well that's saved me £500.
P.S I agree a Fishing Game, who the hell is going to sit infront of a TV playing a Fishing Game, SAD or what!! how boring.
