PS2 Limitations: What are Rumors, What is Truth?

[Kailea_Nagisa]

wow lol "there are no PS2 limitations" is this what we are going with now?......

The PS2's RAM is one limitation
PS2 HDD is another in a way (even though there is still plenty of space)
The graphics chip and CPU are again limitations

really the only big limitation is the RAM though, the GPU would only matter if graphics where enhanced, and CPU for the same reason.

But the PS2 RAM is the main reason why our inventory and MH and all our other storage is maxed at 80

Neither of these matter. The only working ps2s will be in museums by the time ffxi is large enough to fill 40 gb. And the gpu/cpu are again, not a limitation. They are plenty powerful enough to get the job done, and then some. The graphics do not need to be the same on the ps2 as they are for other systems. For example, they are not even close to the same right now. You can't even read a characters name on the ps2 unless you're right next to them, meanwhile you can see them clearly from 50' away on a pc.

The ONLY limitation imposed by the ps2 is it's 32mb of ram. That's it. Nothing else.
