We all know Ps2 is the best selling console of all time and that Ps2 and Ps3 both belong to sony so why would they care if people buy more Ps2s?

Well seeing as Ps2s are cheaper and have more games people are more attracted to it. And making bulks of Ps3 isn't cheap and they want to make money off of them.

This is how they will kill Ps2: Make bad games for it.

I have been looking at the game scheldule for Ps2 and it's utter garbage, barbie games, pet simulation games, and many more. Game developers are ruining Ps2 now. They tried to do it with Quantum Of Solace, instead of making a Fps like all the other platforms they made it into a third person shooter, which made it the most popular out of all of them. They did it with Need for Speed Undercover, copy maps to be very similar to most wanted, appauling graphics and half the cars. And now it's happening with the rumored Star Wars Battlefront 3, if it comes out. It's unknown if it will be on Ps2, but i wouldn't get my hopes up that it will. They will most likely not put it on ps2, and with it being a hit on the ps2 they're trying to force customers to buy a Ps3 or 360

See what im trying to get out here? The ps2 is going down, and fast.

Please post other games that have been good on the ps3 or 360 and have be terrible or accidently better on the ps2 :P

Well the PS2 is kind of dead in our eyes. It sells and we can still find games easily but there isn't anything coming that would make us shun our new consoles. I'm just happy its shelf life has lasted so long because I believe in availability of all videogames.

Sony would be wise to keep the PS2 going. The economy is bad. So to keep raking in some cash. Don't kill off PS2 just yet.

Date the PS2 was released

October 26, 2000

Oh yeah, it's those devs trying to tank the PS2 before it gets out of the gate

Are you serious?

The PS2 is a last gen system. Devs have moved on to the current gen.

If anything you should be kissing the developer's feet that they spent so much time and money developing for a platform for close to a decade.

Sony should have released the Ps3 a year or two later than they originally did since the Ps2 is still selling so well.

The Ps2 will never be dead to me, I've been buying games for it ever since its release and theres still games I want for it I cant find which means a lot because I have like around 110 games for it, and yeah its been out for like 9 years but its still the best selling console and everytime I go to find some games or anything I always see a crap load of people still looking at the Ps2 section.

I'd say the two best examples for terrible and accidentally better are Spiderman: Web of Shadows (terrible) and Sonic Unleashed (accidentally better).

I agree. The NFS undercover for the PS2 ,sucked! Developers are not serious in developing in yesterday's console like the PS2. I still believe the PS2 still has a potential. Developers are just trying to kill it because there are newer systems :(

It's not suprising or unfair really the PS3 has been out for a long time now and there probably just trying to shift the last of the development focus away from the PS2. I mean the last few releases for a console tend to be total crap until they completely die. Still I wouldn't be surprised if the PS2's them selves still sold, it's cheap and good value for money with one of the strongest gaming catalogues for any console. Even if they try and fill the release list with crap they can't take away the long list of good games it's already got.
