I love the ps2 with its dvd, cool graphics, wicked games but it doesent stand a chance against my dell 733mhz with a geFORCE 64mb graphics card. What I am trying to say is that they are over exagerating the ps2 make it seem god like. The fact is that pc's will always be 1 step ahead.

Bot.
Who said I was British?
Who said I was working anywhere?
Also, after we now know the size of your toilet (and a**e), I doubt you`d know how to block it. Besides, (giving a few clues here) I am a student, with a shared bathroom, and (at the risk of sounding as immature as you) there is a body builder who does Judo, and weighs a quarter of a ton here, so the toilet is usually blocked anyway.

look through the magazine, i have been doing that for the past two years to customise the perfect system for $5,500 (au) and i got a 2 grand discount!!

anyway, i agree with you on the upgrading computers bit it is bloody annoying, but there is still another problem they are making consoles today more like pc's so it might end up that way in a few years.

ah! now there's an interesting point (about time)

are they (console manufacturers) REALLY making consoles like PCs?

The real reason that PCs suffer from this cycle of upgrades is that people put things like graphics card slots and sound card slots etc. in them.

Now, the PS2 DOES have an "expansion" port, to be used for a hard drive andbroadband connection device, so; will this create a problem where different levels of hardware exist?

Presumably Sony will have to licence third party products for this port; this could create a problem for instance, if some people own a 2Gig hard drive and others have a 10gig, for example.


Also, the driver software stored in PS2 for things like DVD, PSX compatibility, can potentially be upgraded with a new software release from Sony.

Does this mean that people will have different DVD drivers, etc?

the thing with the console industry is that these things have been traditionally very tightly controlled, but Sony seem to want less control over third party peripherals than, say, nintendo.

Could this lead to a PC-style situation with all the gaming problems associated with hardware incompatibility?

Discuss, with no reference to Lavatories, Widescreen TVs, plumbers, plumpbers, bodybuilders or fluid mechanics.
