Would i be able to try PSO on this?

[Husq]

If so, they would be plugged into the TV's all the time and i would only play with a gamepad in the couch as we do on the 360's. But i've read that this is not meant for gamepads and not worth it unless playing kb+mouse -true?

Not true. Like most japanese PC game titles, see sega's other great game binary domain, this has decent gamepad support. If you have s 360 usb pad or the wireless adapter, that would work perfectly fine.

[SZiadaN]

Not true, the game works perfectly fine with gamepads (there's even built in support for xbox 360 gamepads). You will, however, want to have a keyboard as well (for typing).

Also, I've been using my MBP a bit as well, but my MBP is the last years version.. Either way, it works fine but the MBP will get hot.


Edit: lol, got ninja'd multiple times while typing :P

PSO2 has a UI for 360 controllers.

We only have Apple products at home, .

lol...

lol...

I was referring to computer-type-thingies if that was unclear.
MacBook Pro, iMac, Mac Pro, 2x iPad etc.

Don't like PC's and never will, and since both my wife and i work with photography, graphic, design there is no way in hell i would replace them.

...But i might buy two just to play PSO2 if i get hooked after trying it.
Can't say i'm hyped anymore though, the colossal fiasco that was PSU has put us off playing another sega online game

I know, thats why i was laughing, incase I wasnt clear.

Right, because thats how hardware works... typical mac user.

its not PSU, but thats an opinion, so will be the opinion if you like it or not.
you're prolly better waithing for the NA EU release tho.
cant say id imagine a mac user who 'hates PC' having a smooth ride setting up.

I didn't comment on how hardware works - we just prefer Mac's to PC.

And since we don't play on our computers, there is no need to have a PC.

Easier to understand now?

My "hate" towards PC is the constant problems, blue screen, windows os, patches, viruses etc etc etc. But let's not turn this thread into a discussion about that shall we

If we start playing another sega online game it will be on JP servers. Can't stand another failure of localized content, or rather no content.

Thanks for your input!

Think there is a bit confusion here, unless you run windows, using bootcamp or virtual machine, on your macbook/intel based mac, the game will not run on your machine.

OP already stated in first post that he's going to need to use "bootcamp or whatever".

Your specs look fine except for your graphics cards.

your graphics cards is below the minumum spes of pso2 by alot.
According to the pso2 site the minimum that you'll need is an NVIDIA GeForce 7800GT.

I am afraid to say he's right.
But it doesnt' hurt to try.
SEGA would probably give a slightly higher spec than expect people to run PSO2 on a very old PC.
Or Mac, in your case.
