The new Playstation 2 from Sony came out in October. The PS2 were sold out in a matter of minutes all around the country. Amazon.com sold their stock out in 30 seconds. The PS2 is surely a hot item for the Christmas 2000. But is it really worth it considering that the new X-box from Microsoft will come out and the Nintendo GameCube next year.
Lets compare
PS2: 300MHZ Processor, 32MB of RAM 128Bit of Graphics, DVD player, Internet connection.
GameCube: 400MHZ Processor, 64MB RAM 256Bit of Graphics (still unknown), possibly DVD, Mini-Disk, Internet Connection, small and compact.
X-Box: Pentium III 733MHZ or AMD Athlon or even the new Pentium 4, 64MB RAM, 256bit Graphics, DVD, Internet Connection, Network (can connect to other X-Box and computers for Multiplayer).
The reason why that the PS2 is so hot is because of its new games with new 3D realistic Graphics. Considering the statistics X-Box is the right buy but if you are a Playstation fan than the PS2 is right for you its all up to you. |
