[quote="Sgt. Paine":ae8da]nub question. For most games (socom, and such) that i play, that are FPS on a console, are so hard to control since i am so used to a mouse, and not the analog sticks. is there a way to use a keyboard and mouse for ps2, do they even make one?[/quote:ae8da]
there are 2 usb slots in the front of the PS2, you can plug a keyboard into it, i know that, i've done that before.

and i guess you could put a USB mouse there too, but i have never tried that.

Only the official sony mouse ever worked for me in those usb ports.... my old optical blue and my mx500 do not work in the usb..

Nah, I'm never buying another console. The last one I bought was a Gamecube, I played it like.....10 times...and haven't touched it since.

Also...

Im tired of the playstation platforms, its time for a change, which is why im going for the 360.

I think nintendo's going to suprise everyone this time around. For a change sony has (by a small margin) the most powerful console, at the same time no company has put out 3 big selling home consoles in a row, pretty much been nes,snes then playstation,playstation 2.

The revolution backwards compatability will win it a big following imo, ms and sony have already shot their loads in regards to uveiling the consoles and showing what they can do, nintendo stil has to unveil the revolution controller and theres been a ton of buzz about it on the net since e3 with speculation of what its going to be like. I can honestly see nintendo kicking some ass this time around.

Only problem with nintendo is (atleast with the gamecube) all the games are child like, not to mention after a few months of a new game coming out the games are being halted of production. I think Nintendo might not do to good at first because everyone who bought a gamecube and was dissapointed probably will switch to something else like MS or sony if they havent already. Time will tell, the new Xobox system looks pretty balanced.

Meh, nintendo games just usually have a fun factor involed in them rather than having to rely on gimmicks like tons of swearing and blood or whatever (hello gta). Games like mariokart, sure it looks like a kids game, but thats just the graphical style of the mario games, in multiplayer mariokart can't be touched for pure fun.

Played a white guy for a while, then a black guy in the last one, next game will probably have you in charge of a pack of psycho mexicans trying to get across the border. The new games feature will be the addition of hispanic swear words. oOo:

The next GTA release you will play as a white kid from Brampton.

How is the PS3 the most powerful? In terms of graphics it doesn't even come close to the XBox 360.

The cell cpu's meant to give it an advantage over the other consoles. Though its graphics chips basically a slightly faster geforce 7800gtx, was reported it was slower but that was an error on the site that had it.

Cell is overrated bullshit.

Have you seen the specs for the 360's graphics processor? It's quite amazing... 48 pixel pipelines, 10mb imbedded RAM, unified shaders...

Some how I think that would absolutely destroy an overlocked 7800GTX...
