Playstation 2 - Forgotten? or still on the block...

Gaming
Playstation 2

The PlayStation 2 (abbreviated "PS2") is Sony's second video game console, the successor to the successful PlayStation and the predecessor to the PlayStation 3 as part of the PlayStation series.


These days we are hearing a lot of the PS3's and the Xboxes'; but folks it was the PS2 which revolutionized the gaming world and caught the attention of the bored gamers most of which were really not happy with the gaming experience that the outdated 8 bits and 16 bits gaming devices provided and also not to forget the irritating long wait people had to bear while installing the games on their PC's. It would take around 50 minutes for the game to install and then to your pc would show that it requires high configuration...graphic cards... and the pathetic operating of the keyboards. No doubt the PC games had good graphics and and excellent sound quality but it could just not quench the thirst of the gaming freaks out there…

As much as the respite it provided, it was the amazing revolution that the PS2 had created with the amazing graphics, sound quality and yes this time along with the superfluous controls which left the gamers spell-binded at once and such was its effect that it airlifted the once stagnating gaming industry to the level we see it today.

PS2 is much more ahead then the PC games and also how can we forget about the vibrating consoles which would give an ultimate playing experience. PS2 also gave a boost to some of the games which were flops on the PC eg- Grand Turismo...and it also gave the gamers some of the best action games eg- Def Jam Fight for NY, Raw vs Smackdown, Tekken etc.. and till now PS2 fans are waiting for the new games to arrive as the manufacturing of games was stopped in 2007 but the cd's are still abundantly available in the market.....

Also considering the fact that the PS2 is still available in the market only for 8k compared to the 24k price tag that you would have to shell out to buy that ever so expensive PS3. PS3 is not such a big upgrade from a PS2 hence it is still not a bad option for the amateur gamers to start their gaming experience with the PS2 and also all of you out there who cannot afford the hole that a PS3 burns in your pocket we still have a good number of games in the PS2…

So what would you prefer a PS2 or a PS3 ??? We have made ours so what is yours???
