PC tech evolves too fast. If you want to keep up, you might have to spend 500 dollars on a good PC, and everytime you turn around, your old one is obsolete, unless you buy upgrades every few months.

That and the fact that ever PC I touch dies withing 2 years.

I PREFER THE PS2, BUT I RARELY PLAY GAMES ANYMORE.

Speaking of San Andreas, I really enjoy it. The Playstation 2 is starting to show its age, but since graphics don't really matter to me, I still cherish it and my games.

The gameplay is really good (took a while to get used to the controls after playing VC for so long), and I love the voice acting (Samuel L. Jackson anyone?), but the missions to unlock the bridges to the new areas are incredibly frustrating and repetitive at times, but thats always been the main complaint of everyone since way back in 2001 and GTAIII.

To an earlier post: I am also looking forward to MGS3 and see how Kojima's wackyness and love for "shocking" plot turns plays out.

By the way, has anyone played that Katamari Damacy game for the PS2 yet? I've heard some great things about it.

Now, this guy over here is my hero, he is not only making a version of GTA to the old NES, but he build his own compiler to do it. Creating a compiler for a processor other than an x86 acrhicteture one, in order to create a nintendo version of such a cool game, now THAT'S what I call computer geekiness.

“Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country.” — Nazi Reich Marshal Hermann Goering
