What makes a PC with 4 USB Sidewinder Pro joypads worse than a console
with 4 joypads. I'm also fairly sure a compact keyboard and mouse are on
the cards for PS2 as it uses USB and iLink. You can play many console
games perfectly well with as good, if not better gfx on a PC. If I only
had a Mac (I'd have a decent one) I'd persevere with games on it rather
than get a console as well. you can play any games on a desktop computer
but you can't on a console.
