Supposedly the amount of RAM is a little on the thin side for such a hyped console and there is no hardware anti-ailising, is this true? The supposed only decent game is Ridge Racer 5 and even that failed to cause a rucus. Whats all this stuff about a VU0 and VU1 maths co-processors? sounds cool whatever it is, cut this maybe what all the stuff about PS2 being hard to program for is all about. Call it sceptisism or just blatant lies but this is what the press has been reporting. Mind you I'd love to see Nintendo kick arse again like they used to. The Dreamcast might not fair as badly as most have thought due to the press saying that the PS2 is really not that much more powerful....... Or am I talking pants..... Max
