Could someone who has played Prince of Persia: The Warrior Within on
both the PC and Playstation 2 tell me which version is better in terms
of graphics and gameplay using a PC keyboard vs. a PS2 gamepad?

I read every review linked off Gamerankings.com, and none really
compared the 2 versions other than the PC's graphics were slightly
better but using the PC keyboard was difficult.

I can buy either one for about $9 tomorrow, so I'd like to know which
version I should pick. Thanks.

I'd go for the console version. I tried POP:SOT on the PC and it drove me
nuts. I bought the Xbox version and it was like a totally different game.
Might not look as good depending on your PC, but IMHO this type of game is
truly meant for a console. JLC

Definitely get the console version. I'd recommend Xbox one but if you
don't have an Xbox then the PS2 is still preferable to the PC version
because the controls are just a lot tighter. And a game like PoP series
lives and dies by the controls.
