best console ever
This is the greatest home console ever made
I’m convinced that it would take an entire lifetime just to play every PS2 game ever made.
I want to go back
I had a PS2, Xbox, and GameCube back on the day, and out of all all of those consoles, I played the PS2 the least since it was the shittiest console of the bunch. Games were lackluster compared to Nintendo's overall games that were better and still hold up today, and Xbox having Jet Set Radio Future and Halo was all it needed to have a better library than the PS2. Don't use Final Fantasy as an excuse, that's on Nintendo and Xbox now
...
oh my god, i got mine when the slim came out tho, i believe around mid 2005
>20 years later
>every sony console and consoles in general have not had even half the library of the ps2
what went wrong
>backwards compatible with PSX games and memory card
I still play mine every so often.
>pc gamers everywhere are LOLing right now
heh fucking plebs
wow that's only a few months before i was born
Development costs
Well i am younger than the ps2
oh well at least i have one!
Shame i can't play psx games cuz i do not have the memory card ps1, and the ps2 one is borked so i need to buy a new one.
I miss AA games bros
never ever, Yas Forumstard
i got mine when sly cooper 3 came out on my 6th birthday
1 more year xbros and it's our time to shine
Unironically Sony's last good console
Unironically no. the ps1 is sony's last good console
Shovelware: the console
STOP
i can feel it xbros, 2021 will be the year of the green
underage shitter go back to lereddit
it's insane just how much good shit came out for this thing
Who else here was an idort that owned both this and the Wii?
Sad to think people actually have this opinion. Obviously zoomers first console. Good console but nowhere near the greatest besides it’s sales.
i got mine on my 6th birthday in 2005 so i guess i'm pretty based
>smug post that adds nothing
sorry tendie, your last great console was the SNES and it doesn't come close.
Nah, it's the greatest console ever created. Fuck you.

i'd put ps1 in A. good list
the tranny is afraid of the SEGACHAD
Agreed for the most part. It kind of stings though that the consoles dropped off after gen 6.
Pcfags were losers in 2000.
Sega is alright, I own the master system and genesis, but never got the dreamcast or saturn. I also barely played any games on them.
sorry your niche console wasn't more popular
PS2 = THE GOAT
>I miss AA games bros
One of the reasons way I stayed behind in the 7th gen when most moved onto the 8th. The gens prior have some good and decent AA games.
>A
>switch
shit list
I'm a zoomer but I think gamecube is better than ps2
wait
ps2 was released in 2000?
I clearly remember it being released around 2008/2009. What kinda of timeline shift is this?
My ps2 broke so tomorrow I'm getting a fat ps2 and nocturne to play over spring break.
Found the xBox faggot.
Must explain why I played on my PS2 as recently as 2013
you're absolutely delusional and you have shit taste.
bring me back
>2008/09
Have you been in a coma?
My first console was NES
Shut the fuck up nintensoi
Me. Best console combo, I must say.
im dead serious, i remember playing it 3 or 4 months after its release and it was around that time. there is no way i was only 5 when the ps2 was announced. no way.
Do you remember your first PS2 game?
san andreas
SSX
Yep It was Ico
It kept freezing every 20 minutes cause it was a fucking bluedisk.
By the time I got a new model that could play it, it was already scratched up by younger siblings. I didn't beat the game until the HD remake.
>GTA III
The groundbreaker. Greatest 5 game run of all time.
ATV Quad Power Racing 2
you must be thinking of the PS2 slim
Orphen: Scion of Sorcery
why isn't ps2 considered to be retro by /vr/?
I think it was shadow of the colossus (demo), it was on jampack 13 i think (which came with the console).
well it might be it
Gamecube was better
they are scared of the fact that they got old and PS1 and 2 are retro gaming territory
The entire generation isn't considered retro just to keep PS2kiddies out
>>A
>SWITCH
bruh moment
>It's this seething Xbro again
No one gives a fuck about your fridge
Holy shit they they're starting to jack up PS2 game prices!!
Examples? I still got FFX original complete for like $10 in 2018
yeah i just looked it up and it really was the vol 13, i was a kid i fucking loved the jampack theme:
5 people worked on doom. over 3000 people worked on rdr2
Zone of the Enders with the MGS2 demo
SMT
I don't know how the fuck SMT got the explosion of games and spinoffs it got on the PS2. It's disappointing looking at new Atlus and seeing a few barebones Persona of spinoffs.
>shitch
they better do some anniversary announcement or something or I’ll completely lose faith in sony
>I think
stop that. you're bad at it
I almost panicked when I checked on Amazon and saw Jak 1 going for $30 dollars.Gamestop still sells PS2 games on the cheap, so I'll buy from them.
PS2 was a shovelwarehouse
user, the PS3 was released in 2006 and the PS4 in 2013
something, something a leaker said Sony would have two year long anniversaries. The PS2's 20th is one of them.
my god, where did time go
>PS4 in 2013
Fuck
Struck a nerve kek
and the PS1 is now 26 years old (1994), older than most of Yas Forums
It's dumb because you can consider Dreamcast less retro than PS2. Day 1 downloadable dlc, internet integrated out of the box, better GPU specs &, VGA support, hardware is based on Naomi arcade board which was used in arcades up until late 7th console gen.
Either Onimusha or Shadow of Memories. I also got Code Veronica X with it. Bought the other two beforehand, since the console was a Christmas present I knew I would get(mostly because it also played DVDs so it was something the whole family can use).
/vr/ is about an era, not age. It should really be called "20th century gaming" so people quit asking about this.
>right
>the console with worse multiplats
>no good shooters,
>too weak to play any pc games
>only faggy JRPGS's is totally the best console ever.
Get a fucking grip.
Literally the single greatest console of all time.
Money, Snoy, normalfags, women and SJWs. Thank god for Steam/PC, I would have quit "gaming" a long time ago otherwise.
PS2 has component support and supports up to 1080i.
PS2 came out before 9/11, that's considered to be a era in it self.
retarded euro that plays only FPS detected
This game turns 18 this year. Say something nice about it.
>tfw franchises will never have back to back sequels within one console generation
it hurts bros
Warship Gunner 2.
I've actually never had any consoles besides NES, this game just happens to be the first one I emulated on PCSX2.
>tfw R&C is literally older than me
Component is garbage to VGA though and 1080i is less impressive and way less supported than 480p or 720p on Dreamcast/Xbox
Hey but some shovelware where.fun maybe broken but fun
PS2 also supports 480p. And good luck using that VGA on a new TV.
funny how he didn't include what he thinks is the best console
Either Aliens vs. Predator: Extinction, or Star Wars Battlefront.
>he didn't play Spider-Man 2 on the PS2
>he didn't watch Spider-Man 2.1 on the PS2
2000 is not really different from 1998 in era.
Holy shit it's older than me
why did sony use the spiderman font for the PS3?
>Obviously zoomers first console.
Were zoomers even alive in 2000?
en.wikipedia.org
>The Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary defines Generation Z as generation of people born in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Oxford Living Dictionaries describes Generation Z as "the generation reaching adulthood in the second decade of the 21st century."
>The Pew Research Center defines Generation Z as people born from 1997 onward
The PS3 was released in 2006/2007, that's more likely to be the "zoomer's first console" than the PS2.
no other has managed to impress me like this back in 2002
what good games does ps2 have?
zoomer here, zoomers first console here in the third world is the PS1 then the PS2 then the XBOX 360 and only then the PS4
Jak and Daxter are trending.

The most recent console I've owned was a PS3 that I sold in 2014, lol.
WE ARE THE LAZY GENERATION
NO MORE STANDING OUT IN LIIIIINE
NOOOOOOOO!
NEW GAME NOT OLD GAME!!!
>is the PS1
Neat. That was the console I had as a preteen, with the NES and Megadrive being the consoles we had in the house when I was a younger kid. Almost a full generational gap in time based on geographic region.
Still being played today in 2020
youtube.com
Surprised hasn't been posted yet.
>So fucking assblasted he actually had to edit an image to show how mad he is
I wasn't even the OP, nor was I implying that it was a joke. I was clearly commenting on how upset the Switch makes you.
i had a poor(er) cousin that still played the SNES that he got from his father when i had the PS1, i used to lend him my console and he would lend me his console.
The generational delay is not that big nowadays because the games got cheaper and the living standards got better.
No console has yet to have a better year one holiday line up since.
Devil May Cry and J&D.
But pic related got more playtime.
My brother owned the PS2 so technically it was his but he also brought me DMC1 after buying DMC2
Best choice he ever made.
I was still playing my N64 as late as 2003.
Snitch to C tier and PS1 to A tier
And it will be a good list.
Let's be honest here man, no one is actually upset by the Nintendo Switch. It's projecting arsehurt Nintendo fanboys who can't seem to be able to handle any sort of negative commentary or criticism regarding the handheld that have been on a rampage on Yas Forums since the first trailer was uploaded to Youtube.
As a kid we had a neighbour with a SNES and all the new games. It was so good going over there on weekends and playing games all day. That was such a great little console.
God I'm old
Can we go back in time before the internet ruined everything?
Is that still present? Some banners got discontinued.
You forgot the SS ranking.
>SS
Mega Drive/Genesis
Cuz it's fuckin' SPIDER-MAN duuuuude!
The switch is a fucking piece of shit compared to the PS1
MOBIUS 1, ENGAGE
I liked the better platforming compared to the rest of the series even though what got me into it was the weapons.
>Is that still present?
Not sure, to be honest. I might have a look to see what the current banners are and upload them.
If we invented time travel in the future we'd have people popping up all over the place and be written in history so It's safe to say we are doomed before we ever invented it. Looks like we're stuck in the post-internet world until the inevitable end.
Love it even now even with the nightmarish pizza delivery side activity.
my first console was an atari 2600, playstation 2 is best console

Can relate. I'm a millenial and my first one was an SNES right about 1999 til 2003 when i got my PS1. In retrospective, starting with the older consoles was pretty good since you got to experience a larger pool of games and hidden gems, and since we didnt have that much information or internet back at that time, we didn't felt like we're way too far behind in comparison to the first world countries.

The SNES is for autistic nerds that get motion sickness over nothing and can't handle anything faster or harder than a menu simulator JRPG
2000 was 20 years ago, user.
>>the console with worse multiplats
I don't remember many games outside of exclusives that I couldn't play on PS2
>>no good shooters,
Black comes to mind
>>too weak to play any pc games
So was the Xbox. Games like Jade Empire and Fable were developed with the console's limitations in mind, which is why so many areas are just a series of hallways
>>only faggy JRPGS's is totally the best console ever.
How could I forget the thrilling turn based combat of JRPG pioneers like Killzone and God of War?
I don't remember if this was the exact one, but it was a WWF game. My older brother and I loved wrestling, and that game was fun as hell. Been ages since I played it, but I still remember climbing the entrance onto the giant fist and throwing people off, riding a motorcycle around the place, and fighting backstage. Good times
>>>the console with worse multiplats
>I don't remember many games outside of exclusives that I couldn't play on PS2
you got the worse multi-plats. they played worse and they looked worse
>>>no good shooters,
>Black comes to mind
Black is garbage and it's also better on xbox>>>too weak to play any pc games
>So was the Xbox. Games like Jade Empire and Fable were developed with the console's limitations in mind, which is why so many areas are just a series of hallways
Doom 3, Half Life 2, Riddick, Splinter Cell..come on man. Splinter Cell on either ps2 or gamecube are different games compared to the xbox versions>>>only faggy JRPGS's is totally the best console ever.
>How could I forget the thrilling turn based combat of JRPG pioneers like Killzone and God of War?
The "lol Halo Killer" and the "dont give a shit because xbox has Ninja Gaiden" baby action game. WOW
It seems smaller than what I would assume but unless they changed the naming scheme, there are 500 300x100px top page banners in rotation at the moment. No idea about the number of board specific 468x60px contest banners.
files.catbox.moe
>you got the worse multi-plats. they played worse and they looked worse
PS2 got the worst? You sure it wasn't the GameCube? Sure it looked better, but a lot of games had cut content or serious compression because of the mini discs Nintendo used. The mini discs also kept a lot of devs from making ports at all. Off the top of my head, Prince of Persia Sands of Time had a lot of cut dialog, and by the time Two Thrones came around, they couldn't make it fit on a disc, so they cut it entirely
>Black is garbage
Shit taste
>Doom 3, Half Life 2, Riddick
You got me there
>the rest
Motherfucker you said every game was a JRPG, quit moving the goal post because you don't like the games I listed

THPS3? I genuinely can't remember.
I was a poorfag and a friend of mine bought fucking RESIDENT EVIL 4 on his PS2 one day. Shit was a fucking beast and I couldn't believe my eyes
He had to go but he let me keep the ps2 for a couple of days. The shock must have been so big that I can't even remember the bliss that I must have had
A year or two later my dad got me one and it was like 10+ years of bangers non stop
The best console ever made hands down.
20th anniversary. Rest in peace.
Based
all true besides the switch placement.
just switch the psone with it and it is a fine list.
Look at the PS2 exclusive library and say it isnt true
I got three games with it.
Burnout 3
The punisher
Golden Eye rouge agent
A friend of mine gave me death by degrees but it was kinda shit.
Onimusha: Dawn of Dreams.
Been 16 years since Jak 3

Sony won’t let a third party remaster or make side games

>Weakest out of the trio

PS2 did not deserve its great library and success.
>ch-cheap dvd player!
>ps1 was a cheap cd player!
>ps3 was only sold because of the blu-ray!
Yeah, it's Yas Forumsintendogaf alright
launched in late 2004
ps2 had kino movies and kino games
gamewho had nothing noteworthy
It's hilarious to think that the switch meets the first three criteria
Completely fucking wasted trips.
no matter how you fucking slice it the ps2 had more good games than the gamecube, its simple fucking fact, you can say you prefer the GCs library and thats fine but claiming it had "better quality" games is just delusional unless gfx are all you care about
It "won" because it had the best library.
>was going to be darker but got censored
I'm surprised they managed to get away with what was left.
>It "won" because it had the best library.
And it had the best library because it was the best selling console by a landslide. Sony's first party output was weak compared to Gamecube and Xbox.
m.youtube.com
Who here did 100% on this kino?
What game are they playing?
>20 fucking years
>/vr/ doesnt consider it retro
Looks like one of the Madden games.
Not really, Sony really tried really hard to make good exclusives to the PS2, they created new ips (Ratchet, Jak and Daxter, Sly Cooper), and interactions of PS1 franchises (Gran Turismo, still the GOAT) and obviously they also created the buggest masterpieces Ico & Shadow of the Colossus.
But the thing is, PS2 had so many different and great games made by 3rd parties (like God Hand and Devil May Cry) that those titles ended up overshadowing the majority of Sony own games.
>two The Getaway
>two mainline GT and two Prologues
>Tourist Trophy
>three Sly Cooper
>four Ratchet and Clank
>four Jak and Daxter
>two SOCOM
>one Syphon Filter (two if you include the ported one from PSP)
and those are just the ones who came quickly to my mind
I'd say Sony did develop quite a bit of vidya for the PS2
JOHN
MADDEN
That's fucking hilarious. The PS2's immense catalog of masterpiece games speaks for itself. It was also powerful, a great DVD player and could go online (I know others could too, but combine that with its legendary library).
It's obviously the greatest console ever made. Remove the PS2 from history and the entire industry sinks into the hold it leaves.
What's hilarious is you're obviously guilty of exactly what you're accusing the PS2 guys of. It was your first, you're a boomer now and you pine for your childhood.
>And it had the best library because it was the best selling console by a landslide.
It was the best selling console by a landslide because of its library.
nothing will ever come close
it was the greatest era of the internet too
if you missed out on the ps2 at its peak you missed out on one of the greatest times to be alive and will never be able to experience it again
gcfags have some sort of inferiority complex, they keep claiming how PS2 didn't had so much great games when they like literal trash shovelware like StarFox Adventure.
>people never experienced the glorious, GLORIOUS times of MGO
THE BESTEST, MOST BROKEN, MOST HILARIOUS AND ENJOYABLE ONLINE STEALTH ACTION GAME EVER
Half the gamecube discs today don’t work because Nintendo used the most garbage discs in the entire world and Xbox is Xbox so who cares.
Most overrated console by far, but it is pretty good.
PS3 was the best Console and part of the best generation and you know it.
Dreamcast was begrudgingly added because it was the swan song of a classic console house, and died with Atari’s last foray into hardware (Nuon) and arcades

I know they aren't perfect (nothing is) but they're all solid games.
Gamecube had a much better library of games than the original Xbox.
why am I so old? why does time go so fast?
Are you from a third would country, or is this bait?
It was amazing to witness so much progress in such little time.
I haven't seen anything like it since.
Just busted out my OG PS2 to play Katamari. Having lots of fun bros
I can't believe it has been 20 years since Sony had a console with good games on it. If only the laser hadn't failed and the PSP battery hadn't exploded.
I don't think we ever will again. You look at the 7th gen onwards and the progression is rather flat in comparison.
My PS2s still work but I fear for my PSP
It's a 3000 but I don't use it too much because I've seen all the people saying their batteries exploded
It's a fucking shame the thing was made with a shitty proprietary battery. Beyond mods and questionable 3rd party batteries, I'm too scared to use it much, which sucks because it's got a great library
Shame it came out just too soon to have an easily swapped battery the way modern smart phones do
Yeah shame the box doesn't have a big fucking warning label that says "will explode in 8 years". Guess I have to play MHFU on emulator now, though it's just not the same...
>not turning the little PS symbol when you have it vertical
user I...
>I don't think we ever will again.
Especially with the lads leaving rockstar. Can't believe V is the last "real" gta, the future looks bleak.
demo disk.
there was this one game where you controlled a spider mech and shoot missiles.
but one of my first real ps2 games, BloodRayne and burnout 2.
Gimmick console. Only reason it sold was cuz of DVD's. Worst hardware of the big three, too. Also there were no first party games, Bravo Snoy.
Yeah, when I'm not using it I take the battery out and keep it in a zip lock just in case
When I do use it, I charge it for a day then go about it like normal but it still worries me
It sucks too because the PSP has a shit charging cable. I'd love to play the thing plugged in but its not as reliable as USB charging for power
Its a shame that hardware deficiencies is whats going to make experiencing one of the best handheld libraries almost impossible over time
And not only that but you see companies like analogue trying to make 3rd party gameboys now, you'd most likely never see that with PSP because who the fuck would want to try and manufacture a UMD reader.
The thing is fucked and it makes me sad. DS and PSP days were the best
My mom got be a fat xbox instead of a ps2 when everyone else had the ps2
Either Oni or FFX I don't remember
I loved the original Xbox but it was the last box I got that gen. Gamecube and PS2 had too much good stuff
Still, Xbox with Jet Set Radio Future, Halo and Panzer Dragoon was too good and games were dirt cheap in 2005 when the 360 came out so early
Because of the xbox i was wasting my youth on tom clancy games.
As someone who had Gamecube and modded Xbox back in the day, I regret not getting a PS2
You're thinking of antigrav. iirc the controls were shit but it was still fun to play
Good guess! Apparently this is the game

>when I see current GTA Online
Buddy, I remember playing my PS2 in 2004. You must be high
Holy shit i forgot all about that, i was a real piece of shit at it but i played the hell out of it.
The PSP charging cable isn't USB, it's what ever DC current charger they used to use and even when its in there, if I don't have the battery in, I can't play the thing sitting because it's old and finnicky
Like, it moves out of place because its unreliable hardware
USBs at least click in
You've just reminded me to dust off my og Xbox that's been in my closet for 13 years.
>t. Nintendo
None of this would have happened if you faggots hadn't betrayed Sony for Hotel Mario.
My first Gamecube game was Sonic DX. My first Xbox game was Blinx the Timesweeper. I literally can't remember PS2 for some reason.
Nice, its weird how some games really hold up after so long
PS2 was stronger than both the Xfail and Gameboob.
The greatest time to be alive was objectively 1977 - 2004. I feel sorry for little zoomers tbqh.
>tfw born in '91 and always wish I was at least 5 years older
You can try the original battery mod, open it and sold another battery that fits in to the battery board. Some old mobile phone batteries with 860mAh may fit well.
