kareem_nasser wroteI think we should stop this campaign against current generation consoles and corporation's strategies in the gaming world. Back in the PS2 days we always had bad ports and Xbox had better gfx because the gpu is much more powerful than the PS2's.
Most of us here are PS2 "loyalists" even the members who stopped gaming. That console wasn't about gfx and it won the war(think about the Wii now).
Even on PS2 there were crap games just like those days, but you will still find awesome games that will make you forget those retarded games.
I don't understand, what does this have anything to do with what I've said?
The PS2 is no doubt the best thing ever happened to the gaming industry, though remember the infamous emotion engine with promised Toy Story like graphics? (Kutaragi never fails to entertain me :D)
Yes, the PS2 had the weakest hardware among the two other competitors (Gamecube and Xbox) and still it crushed them, why? Because back then we didn't have to deal with the current FPS infection on consoles. The PS2 had the most extensive library of great games, and it needed neither Doom 3 nor Half-Life 2 to justify its victory.
The point is what’s made to take advantage of expensive PC hardware should remain there, why sell people a half assed product? It’s not just about visuals. Why would you play a game on crappy framerates, with ugly pop outs, lack of AA, screen tearing and downgraded gameplay experience? I know that because Crysis plays like shit on even some of the newer hardware.
