<div class="IPBDescription">PC vs PS2 version</div> As you can probably guess, this post is about the game "Fire Warrior".

There is no doubt in my mind that i'm going to buy this game, as I am not only a Warhammer 40k fan, but also a Tau fanboy (the Tau are the race you play in "Fire Warrior").

But anyways, as you probably guessed from the title of this post, you smart person you, I want to know which version I should get, PC or PS2.

So far I have the following uppers and downers for each:

PC:
Can use mouse and Keyboard
Can use multiplayer (YAY!)
It's ten quid cheaper

PS2:
Can play against my internet-game-phobic m8s (they just phear my skillz)
Better graphics.... in theory
It's pretty much guaranteed to work, hardware conflicts e.t.c shoudn't be a problem
Have to use a PS2 controller
FPS + console = BAD! (generally)
It's more expensive

Anyone who has either version who can vouch for theirs over the other?

    Well, Im gonna get PC version purley for the fact that it looks as if its using the Unreal Warfare engine and UT2k3 works fine.

    Well first off, the PS2 version has multiplayer, but having played that last night, that is the sole reason why i'd buy the PC version over the PS2 one. The graphics are gorgeous and it ran as smooth as a baby's arse, but the controls are crap. I've never really been able to get the hang on playing FPS games on a console, it's not right.

    You should get the PC version if you are sure that your hardware will meet the requirements.

    MMMMMmmmmmmmmmmmmm,

    As ex-staff, it's gonna annoy me to play. I'll be like...

    "That Chaos Marine shoulda owned you on HIS OWN! Never mind you beating down a squad!"

    And other such comedy.

    That's one thing that disappointed me about this game. There's only one chaos marine. Bah.

    But on the comedy side, one of the main Tau characters' voice is done by Burt Kwok. Us English types will know him from both Banzai and Harry Hill's crappy show and also he was in the Pink Panther, iirc.
