if a game is fun... it will always be fun. who cares what the graphics look like. it's an absurd way to gauge a game really.
heck... i still play kings bounty and sonic the hedgehog on my megadrive!

agreed. That's why there are still ppl playing CS1.6.. but that was PC sweat.gif .

however, ps2 graphics are still acceptable and good for the current technology..
if u have alot of games that u wanted to play on ps2, why not ??

afterall, ps2 is really cheap nowadays..and it has a wide range of games..

why so?
PS2 has more games for "hardcore" compared with PS3.

IF TS is gonna buy PS2 and all the "nice" game, it might take like a year or 2 to finish them (an hour or 2 per day)

For me, if i want a console, i will check is that any game i looking for. will those game will release on this console, if got, then it will be worth. Maybe few years ago(b4 xbox360 n ps3 comeout) someone bcoz of god of war, winning eleven, final fantasy, GT and etc... they will never regret to bought ps2.

don't you dare use my nick against me. PS3 sales speak for itself. Their game variety has been damaged and has yet to recover. In case you didn't realize, the review on PS3's latest game - LAIR didn't go well either.

I'm actually still waiting for better games to come out. XBOX360 has the interesting games so far - The Darkness, Gears of War...even Blue Dragon. But my loyalty still stays with Playstation tongue.gif so hoping to see more games for this generation of consoles before buying. In the mean time got PSP for portability laugh.gif

My friend also same like me, cannot wait to get PS3. He's at Sungai Wang now survey for PS3 games actually. So far bad news only...he's beginning to listen to GameAxis's article on recommending to get XBOX360 whistling.gif Who wanna poison him towards PSP biggrin.gif

see, you also think Sony's game library for PS3 is small. I got consider XBOX360 but the type of games are not what I'm used to play. I'm loyal towards Grand Turismo, Resident Evil, Final Fantasy, Metal Gear Solid, God of War series...and other 1-time mumbo-jumbo they might throw into the PS console. These titles are coming out next year and I may get the PS3 then, or a few months later.

XBOX360's games are not really the arcade-style with story games I like most. Don't misunderstand me, Gears of War, The Darkness, Halo 3, Call of Duty 3...they're all bloody good games too...but its still not what I like or follow.

In addition - SIXAXIS is wireless and the damn XBOX control is wired tongue.gif

With regard to above post .

Games arent hard to find, Go to sg wang, You can find alot of old games there .

Recently my mom threw away all my ps2 games over a slight miscommunication sleep.gif .

I went to Sg. Wang to purchase a few old / newer games and i had no problems getting them .

The matter of wether buying a ps2 is worth it or not is pretty clear cut . Its dirt cheap now, and u can buy a ps2 game for something like 3 - 4 buck a piece.

Buy it for now and play to your heart content while waiting for the ps3 to be more value for money.

it will take 2-3 years for the bluray media to be widespread
now conventional bluray burner would need rm2k , while BD-R may cost from RM50 and more sweat.gif

i think thats the reason sony is holding their official launch here sweat.gif
