PC vs. PS2

Not considering graphics.

If we include all of the PC's lineup from last gen (seeing as people say the PS2 is still getting games and all) then PC. Without a @#!@(# doubt.

What is better a nuclear bomb or a ps2?Franko_3

ps2 all the way

PC of course! PS2 has WWE Smackdown!: Here Comes The Pain though, which is the best console game ever made.

PC for me

This is a really unfair comparison.

Most people with gaming PC dont play PS2 so obviuosly PS3 will loose this poll. Make better polls

BTW yes the wrestling games on PS2 were aweosme including "WWe here comes the pain"

I remember playing 4 playes with all my friends on 1 pS2.

There is a massive selection of cheap low spec PC games, they would run on next to nothing considering today's hardware performance and prices; and wouldn't be tied to a piece of hardware that will likely stop production in a couple of years.

PC easily.

How is it unfair? Of course PC gamers would vote for PC, just like PS2/PS3 gamers would vote PS2.

PS2 has a more popular line up (PC has a very impressive one, but hardly any popualr titles in comparison, you have to look them up yourself), but my PC has never DRE'd

Probably PC. Both were so sexy though, last generation.

PC and it's not even close

The sims 2, World of warcraft, warcraft 3, half life 2 are released within post last gen and are very popular

Very popular indeed, However you'd need to include all of Sims 2's expansion packs to make a slightly relevant comparison to PS2's popular RPG's/Action/Adventure/Fighting/Racing/Platforming games : p

the top sellers of any platform are never hardcore.

The last generation was an extremely strong one for the PC. As much as I love the PS2, the PC was just unbeatable last generation.

Not considering graphics? Ok, so a PC with the power of a PS2 vs the PS2. Well, I don't like PC gaming much, so I would have to say the PS2 for me. There are many great games on the PS2 which I didn't get around to trying.

Look at the price of the PS2 ;)markop2003

Cost is variable on PC, it depends on what you want.

If you want a brand new PS2 you are looking around £85, cheaper if you are willing to go second hand.

If a PC, well, it's not as straight forward.

When pricing up PC's console users tend to expect the whole thing, OS and all. One of the main advantages of PC gaming is the ability to upgrade but people seem quick to try and deny PC gaming this option. It's safe to say the vast majority of people have a desktop PC, even the exclusive console gamers will have one (inc laptop argument).

If you have purchased a PC in the last 3-4 years it would be very cheap to turn it into a alternative to the PS2, just throw in a GF 9500 GT for £45 and you will have no problem playing the complete selection of old PC games from around the PS2 era at above HD resolutions. You will even be able to play some recent games at reduced settings; and as I said earlier your games list won't disappear like with your console.

PC without a nanosecond of hesitation.
