PS2 vs X-BOX vs PC
« on: November 08, 2004, 01:53:14 am »
I was just wandering what do you think is better a Computer, an X-Box, or a PS2. If you disagree with someone else or wanna tell us your favorite: please give a detailed reason to why you picked one with some proof or something to back it up.


My faworite would be a PC,

They has the letast graphic cards which delivers the latest and the best graphics and FPS rate. They have the fastest processors and support the letest high quality sound card for the most realistic surround sound experience ever.

PC, it has so many more advantages than a console. It can have the best of everything, giving great performance and quality in games, it is easily upgraded, and you can do loads of other things on it like typing, chatting, info gathering, etc.

Yes, it costs more, but then, it\'s worth it :)

PC
is there even a question?

Even with Linux running on an x-box or modded PS2 it doesnt even come close to a PC.
About the only thing that is better on a console then a PC is that the developers can develop for one set of hardware, not x numbers of hardware, which in theory should make it easier to develop for, in theory.

Yes it is unfair to compare pcs with consols. But as for consoles, Gamecube all the way!

I agree, i enjoy the GCN much more than PS, and i wont touch a X-... you know what it is..
one thing that dissapoints me is the lack of titles compared to the other systems the GCN gets.. but ah well, i have fun playing P.N.03 anyway.. i dont really play much anything else (on consoles)

all I have to say is that the PC is more versatile than the PS2 or XBOX making it the best choice.

I dont think PC\'s are a fair comparison vs consoles, its like comparing apples to oranges...
And yes, you can get a linux kit from sony that includes a harddrive and some other stuff.. why they had the harddrive out for the linux kit long before ffxi is beyond me..

I think installing linux (at least Gentoo linux) on the box is a bit easier.  You do need to get some special chip, but a whole kit for the PS2 sounds more complicated.  If I had the time and money I would get a box simply to install gentoo on.

Agreed, though it is also better because I don\'t need to buy a new one every 3-4 years.  Consoles get out dated, my computer doesn\'t.

well.. thats partially true.. whereas your consol becomes outdated every 3-4 years, your pc ..at least, parts of it.. are outdated every 6-12 months.. so instead of buying a new computer, you only buy the part that is old/slow/whathaveyou..

and personally, i use Mandrake Linux, used to do redhat till i got a message saying \'we dont play mp3s due to copyright laws\'... or something to that effect.. so i switched.. i know i could have installed a new version of xmms or some other program, but simply put: if something that basic isnt part of the installation, forget it.. ill just go somewhere else that has it.. i find mandrake linux much better to use, dont ask me why, i just like it ^^
