I'm getting it for the pc as the ps2 graphics are crap, also I want the mods.

I'd rather play it on the ps2 anyday, it's better than playing it on the geeky pc and it's boring control system, the graphics aren't that crap, besides graphics aren't everything you know and I'm sure you're crap in bed.

you who trying to convince? us ? or yourself? .... if your trying to convince us.... it'll never happen (see below).... if your trying to convince yourself well then you go on living in that dream world of yours all the power to ya just ignore the rest of us pointing an laughing =) (and ignore whats below)

 

1- ps2 can barley handle gta:sa looks fine if your standing still and squinting real hard .... trying moving fast as back and forth at an airport ... soon nuf you'll be hitting fences you can't see untill AFTER you crash into them ...wont get that with pc

 

2- tired of driving fast down a highway only to have a car suddenly appear with out warning as you smash into the back end of it? wont get that with pc

 

3-that isn't SMOG around la... although they'd like you to think so .... it's graphic fogging they use it to hide textures and other such stuff that it too gaphicly intence for the ps2 to display all at once .... wont get that on pc

 

4-who needs a cheating device with PC... skilled enough you can make your own cheats/trainers ... skilled enought you can change just about anything in the game with mods

 

5-if your stil now convinced : PS2 SCREEN SHOT (640x480) user posted imageuser posted image (not same location but about the same angle)

PC screenshot user posted image

1920x1200 (no differances eh)

 

oh ya ... send your girlfriend/wife over and she can be the judge of who's good in bed....

Speaking of comparison screens, somebody should make a screenshot from the same spot/angle as some of the PC version screenshots on the PS2 SA, and then compare the two...

I'm gonna buy it on pc eventhough I bought a ps2 so I could play the ps2 version, graphics are much better and I like to add custom cars and buildings to the game so it doesn't get boring because it's the same every time.

that doesn't bother me, I'm used to it, I'm not a little whiney baby that crys about minor inconveniences, besides this won't even be a problem when the ps3 is out because the ps3's graphics will be just as good as the pc's.

Hahaha I have to admit that "I'm sure you're crap in bed" line made me laugh but trying to defend a PS2 is pathetic. I think Sony would even admit that PS2 is ghey compared to PC. Just compare Vice City on PS2 to Vice on PC. PC totally PWNZ the PS2 in every way, even on my old PC which is a crappy PIII 500!!!

Wasn't going to buy a PS2 just to play a highly down-graded version 6 months earlier...

 

As GameSpot says "The PC version will be much much better in just about every aspect"

 

Its worth the wait in my opinion...

I got that PS2 screenshot from a video on my computer, so that every one that doesnt agree that the PC version is more improved than the PS2 should shut his mouth.

Now look clearly at the rims , and look at the diffrence.

Yeah, I noticed that also. The wheels are actually round this time, not all jagged like in the PS2 version.

 

When VC was ported to the PC, it just used some higher resolution textures, but still used the same models as were in the PS2 version, so all of the wheels (most notably on the bikes) were all jagged. I hated that tremendously; even moreso when the Xbox got drastically updated graphics on GTA3 and VC. Perhaps the Xbox versions of GTA3 and VC were just a preliminary test to see how good they good get the GTA games to look on a more capable system. I'm glad that R* has utilized the extra "legroom" that the PC and Xbox have to offer to apply an even greater amount of graphical improvement to the PC and Xbox versions of SA.

no sh*t ? the ps2 graphics aren't perfect, like I said before just wait until the ps3 is released then you pc users won't be comparing and whining like children about how the playstations graphics are crap, the ps3's graphics will be crytal clear like the pc's, maybe not as good as the pc's but they will be acceptable and you won't be able to compare or bitch.

you keep thinking that and then when PC's surpass conoles again as is envetiable you will be in the same boat ... trying to convince a bunch of hardcore pc'ers that your cutdown cookie cutter console is better... we'll be here to laugh at you again...

ps3's graphics will be fine for me, I'm not a nit-picking ego maniac that wants perfect pc graphics so go ahead and play games on you're pc, I could care less if you're pc is more powerful than the ps2 and ps3 because it doesn't impress me.

 

it's easy to make yahoo ids idiot, you assume too much.. go ahead and report me then you child touching pedophile, it'll just prove how much you fear me.

Idiot trolls make the world go round, I suppose.

 

Did it occur to you that people are interested in playing the game on powerful PC's because they enjoy sharp graphics and smooth gameplay, rather than because they want to impress you on Internet forums?

 

And please, for your own sake, stop using that "fear me" line. It's the dumbest thing I've heard in weeks, and I hear a lot of dumb sh*t on the Internet.

Jeez calm down. He may be putting in useless insults, but he admits that he knows that the PC is more powerful, and he's just fine with the console. To each his own, end of story.

 

To get back on track, I will be buying San Andreas on PC for the game itself. smile.gif

I'm getting it on the PC as I don't have a PS2 or any other non-portable console for that matter.

Take this as an official warning to stop bitching about PC vs. PS2. The topic is about who's buying the game for what reason, not which has the superior hardware/abilities/fanboys.

As woith all my gaems, I'll likely download it first jsut to make sure it'

s actually WORTH the 60 or 70 dollars.

 

Although the Previous two titles were certainly worth the ccash, i'm pretty sure this willbe too.

 

Then again I've assumed that before and dropped my cash on crap.

 

No, it'snot warez.. it's... a full preview.

 

I guess.

26 days and counting.... sigh.

well of course pc's are gonna be better than the ps3 eventually because they are upgradeable but the ps3 will be be one of those consoles with decent graphics and will be able to handle most sh*t which will make it an above average console that you can't really bitch about unless you're one of those pc people that just wants more improved graphics, etc all the time, it's just like children, once you give them candy they just keep asking for more and more.

All this ps2 an pc action is pointless.I've been playing games for 10 years or so but only been hardcore for 7 years.I always dreamt of game like gta long before it was released.Hmmm nostalgia-still remember the first time playing gta3 on ps2 some years back biggrin.gif .Anyway my point is that due to games like gta,r* have made it hard for other devolopers.Because no matter what genre of a game,they can never stand up to gta in any way although many are fun.The problem with today's video games are that their developers focus to much on the attractive look of the game than actual substance or content.They manage to include really exciting gameplay but when that happens the game is either to short or repititious.Renting games is much more appealing than buying except when it comes to games like gta or the legend of zelda.Back in ps1 and n64 days, games did have alot more substance and u cud have played for months without getting bored.But in our time, gta is one of the few games than could have long lasting replay value. So i'll conclude by saying this: if u r a hardcore gamer an dont own a ps2 and feel like your're missing out on alot of titles,dont waste ur money on a ps2 because most of these games are only fun for a while so most of the time i just tell myself that i could live without playing it.If u are a bit more of a casual gamer then go ahead and waste ur money.pc games are all(well maybe not all) awesome any many are good enuff to buy just like gta games but the problem is that the hardware is costly

Im like most other peeple Ive paid for every part of my computer ever scince I started building/upgrading 3 years ago

LETS GET BACK ON TRACK:

 

im bying GTA: SA for the pc cause the pc just feels better... i tried SA on a ps2, for 20 min, in my local games store and... it just didn't feel right...

 

I don't use mods alot... only if they are improving the game and fit in to the game world (fx do i use the xbox wheels instead of the PC in VC) but i don't replace cars and stuff like that...
