And a PS2 to play San Andreas but maybe I'll wait for the PC version?

Yeah, the family also has a PC though, which I occasionally use. ^_^

Rent first.
So is the Gamecube version easier also? I wasn't going to get the PS2 version. Might as well rent it though anyway, once I beat a game I never play it much again. Although since the Revolution will be Gamecube compatible, maybe I should buy it so I can enjoy it years from now.

I have a couple question about World of Warcraft and I didn't know where to ask them. And I want it for this generation.

How much is it monthly?
Um, well that's actually it.

No no no, they optimized it for ps2, so the graphics on all versions are only up to ps2 standards, and the game is easier overall.


VJ1 was made for gamecube, and then ported down for ps2.



And on a side note, anybody know what Joe whistles while he's air-dribbling a bomb in the ps2 version? I'm curious.

I think $15 for 1 month, or $39 for 3 months. Something like that...
And first month free.

No wonder the PS2 version is always cheaper. For some reason I get so close to buying it, but then I don't.

One of these days I should pick up the next Gamecube version I see.

Developers who port from one system to another are usually lackadaisical in their work. Besides, we all know the PS2's Emotion Engine is among the hardest things to develop for. Let's hope with new cell processor for the PS3 using XML and C++ languages will brighten things up.

PS2 has the largest at home audience, so they port for the money and to reach more people...
