I was so content with my good old PS2, but it is time to move on.
I need some suggestions on which type of platform to get to play FFXI SoA, as I will have to force my PS2 into retirement.
When it comes to game platforms, I'm really behind the times. FYI, I play FFXI exclusively. Seriously, nothing else.
So, Xbox or PC?
Here is what I know or would like to have for each platform.
Xbox: Does the "Red Circle of Death" still exist on the new models? This issue, if still present, would really test my patience. Also, I hate the controller. Is there a PS type controller available for the XBox? Only good thing I see about Xbox is that the Xbox is a console game.
PC: Can this be played on a Laptop? If so, I would suspect that you can link it to a HD TV. What would be the advantages to playing on a PC? And don't mention graphics, as I don't really care about graphics, I just want the game to work good, just like on my 9 year old PS2. Can I also get a PS2 type controller for the PC (laptop). I would think a laptop would be good, because I could possibly play on the laptop itself or link it to a HDTV.
Your suggestions will help me decide.
Thanks.
