My favorite PS2 games are Persona 4, FF12, and God of War 2, unfortunately I can't quite find a picture that does justice to the full PS2 lineup. I used the launch holiday season one because it still gets the point across lolI love the PS2 for none of the games in the pic outside of Ico and Gran Turismo 3. I still find PS2 discussion to be obnoxious to this day, do we really need to talk about GTA and Silent Hill 2 over and over again?
Interestingly enough, PS2s aren't that expensive on the used market. A couple hundred bucks at most for one. I assume because there are so manyI've got two super slims in a drawer. One with a power brick and one with the power brick built in. They got to be worth thousands now on the collectors markets.![]()
Fuck the PS3Best console ever tied with the PLAYSTATION 3 (Spider-Man font).
Shit yeah it was. PS2, Xbox, Dreamcast, GameCube, GBA, plus PC gaming firing on all cylinders. What a timeHonestly, I'm going to call it: that was the golden age of gaming
I would say the PS4/Switch era comes close, especially with how well PC was doing at the time thrown into the mix tooit's all been downhill from there
Using retroarch for these?Retro achievements have reignited a passion for these old games for me
Fuck the PS3
Yeah fuck the ps3. That was shit and bollocks.
But the PLAYSTATION®3 by default comes in as joint greatest of all time for being compatible with PS2 and PlayStation games + more.
It's called survival of the fittest broYou are glorifying the console that violently cannibalized Dreamcast and GameCube.
No doubt the games on it were glorious, though. I had a soft spot for the Dreamcast. It was just such a sunny and cheerful and weird little console. SEGA blue skies in almost every game, bright guitar riffs, generally fast frame-rates (60 fps was very unusual back then. All I knew as a kid was that Sonic Adventure seemed so fast), and strange games they just didn't seem to make on other consoles (until they eventually did, later in the PS2's life, by bringing in some of the weirder Japanese fare).You are glorifying the console that violently cannibalized Dreamcast and GameCube.
Really? The hype was great, but the conservative approach (only two gamepad slots; the same gamepad; the questionable design) didn't appeal to me even in 2000.Its good. but beyond the great games its the best console design and marketing design ever. everything about it is iconic. the blue retail box, the logo, sleek look.
It had its limitations like every hardware ever made does. But it was good enough at everything it did for it to become the standard, if not outright iconic, in most of those things too.Really? The hype was great, but the conservative approach (only two gamepad slots; the same gamepad; the questionable design) didn't appeal to me even in 2000.
The gamepad was great, though. I wish the pressure-sensitive buttons hadn't begun and ended on the PS2. One of the toughest and most well-made controllers in the history of gaming, the DualShock 2.Really? The hype was great, but the conservative approach (only two gamepad slots; the same gamepad; the questionable design) didn't appeal to me even in 2000.
Fuck the PS3

Cheevo hunters unite! thing is, I think in all my years, I have 1 game I have 1000/1000 and it happens to be Toy Story 3 on 360. Which was a damn good game actually, but the collectibles took me HOURS. I was missing 1... but naturally had no idea where it was. I had to research every corner of that damn map lolThe OT could use a bit more traffic, not going to lie
The Greatest Console Ever Made
No need to bring that emotion engine chip on your shoulder in hereI love the PS2 for none of the games in the pic outside of Ico and Gran Turismo 3. I still find PS2 discussion to be obnoxious to this day, do we really need to talk about GTA and Silent Hill 2 over and over again?
The PS2 was great, but...
... I still have a grudge with Sony for its underhanded marketing tactics. Intentional stock shortfalls (they still do that crap today). Also, convincing retailers to just... stop showcasing the Dreamcast...
Basically it killed the Dreamcast so we've got problems.
