This message is dedicated to all those people who pre ordered but unfortunately didn't manage to get a machine due to shortages. After reading this, atleast you won't feel like you're missing out on anything special!


You might think that this is just some Zealot dissing Sony's machine but that's where you're wrong. I have EVIDENCE!

Lets start with the graphics, the amiga's Pixels are much bigger than the PS2's puny little polygons!
That's not all. It has HUGE loading times the original PS can only dream off let alone the PS2 which probably hardly loads at all!

DVD? Better than floppy discs?
Floppy discs hold 1 million times more bytes than the DVD has of Giga bytes?

Then there's the price. You might think that the PS2 is a heavyweight at £300 but clearly the better machine cost's more at a huge £500!

Just a PS "2", mines a huge Amiga "500+" making 250 times as good as a PS2.

And then there's it's back catalogue of games, millions more than the PS and PS2 put together, all of which will never appear on one of Sony's machine.

Oh, and you may be excited by the PS2's greatest feature, BASIC, well BASIC appeared on the Amiga as well as Amos and a several other superior updates.

And lastly age, the PS2 is just a day year old baby compared to my 10 year old and wise Amiga. You see, the elder Amiga is more experienced, played, expensive (and in my case, broken) machine!

I did sort of copy the theme but I didn't steal your idea about state of the art sprites and all the points (like large loading times) were entirely made up by me.

They are!

Very good, though I will now sue for breach of copyright, as it's a blatant rip-off of my Commodore 64 v Nintendo 64 argument, posted elsewhere.

If I were you, I'd phone Al Gore and ask to borrow his lawyers when he's finished with them...

Bravo !
I must rush off and dust don that zx81 for a black and white, silent square block based uber-gaming experience.

Nice one
