Now think realistically hereis the PS2 dead? I am a PS2 owner and yes the games are fun but i dont think there are realeses anymore minor games for it. But they will make major games e.g. Fifa 09 SVR09 etc.

Persona 4 is coming out on it. Heh, I think the PS2 might outlast the PS3.

It is getting there. Yet I am still amazed that Sony kept their word that they would support the PS2 through 2010. I guess being the most popular video game console of all time helps.

I think the PS2 still has at least 2 more years of life because right now there have been more PS2's sold than PS3's. Then there's the endless games made for the system and the popularity.

I still maintain that no system is dead as long as there is a fan base playing them...

Yeah, I'd call it pretty much dead by now. Maybe a couple games left to come out, but there aren't any more major releases left to come out

PS2 still selling more than the PS3 each month if I'm not mistaken. The PS3 could just now be passing the PS2 in monthly sales. So ya, the PS2 aint going down without a fight. It was an amazing run. I really don't see myself getting a PS4 though, not after the PS3 fiasco.

From what i have seen these last few months, the PS2 is still running decently strong. It will probably last at least another two years.

LOL, funny

seriously though its not dead yet, but heading in that direction, Sony still makes money on it, so like the PS1, expect its death to be a slow and painful one

its getting nascar 09 madden 09 wwe 09 fifa 09 etc ea titles and sports titles like usual , and almost anything wiis getting minus the controls , no more gtas no more drivers, no more games like that , but ya its not dead yet until wii is , i dont think ps2 will be, ps3 has not tapped into potential i dont think it will ever do so , they down graded the console enough already to throw any sony fan into nothing , the people who buy 40 gb versions are those just playing movies or those that would suffer , gta takes hdd space as does various other games and no im not talking about save games, im saying game installs or some thing like it , and if im already down to 40 gb on my 60 gb then if you have 6 games and a few songs youd be down to 20 gb in no time,

20 gb owners , forget about it , youll be running on empty

I think that ps2 will survive a lot longer...

If you think of it, it can play ps2 games and ps1 perfectly as far as I know. While ps3 do it through emulation as I believe. Now add to that that it has low prices, now include the largest install base with the best gaming library(I think ps2 games have so much worth while games that it can take you years to play them all and still find more) add to that games are still comming out.

This thing has a lot of life and it is here to stay.....

One thing I do not understand is that , why would any one wait so long to buy a ps2? its been like what? 7 years? thats a difference between a child and a working man...thats sooo long!

I think it's still alive and kicking, especially with the PS3 being so pricey. Once the console and the games drop in price, I'm sure more people will start leaning towards the newer generation of gaming but until then I think a lot of people are still going to be buying PS2 games, whether they keep making them or not.

Nope. There is a massive catalog of games that people can still go and play. The PS2 section is still strong in most game stores as well unlike the Xbox and GC where they are trying to get the games out of the store ASAP.

Chaos Wars comes out this month, Monster Lab might be worthwhile, Tales of Despereaux in December, and lol Ghostbusters might be worth it in October. Plus the rumor of Persona 4 being released for ps2. Then there will probably be a few mainstream games worth grabbing as well. Ill still hold out on the PS2. Also there are guranteed releases up to 2010 and you can believe that 2 years is long enough for Atlus and NIS to both crank out at least one or two more good games I.E. hopefully Ar Tonelico 2?

Its still got a huge library of games and more coming out, but we are seeing more and more ports. PS2 is still getting sports titles, Ghostbusters, alone in the Dark, Lego Indiana Jones. The PS2 is really a good deal right now mainly because you can pick up AAA titles for next to nothing, good for catching up on games that were huge 1-5 years ago but you just missed out on..... (shadow of Colossus, God of War, MSG3, RE4, Burnout series, GT4, San Andreas, the list goes on and on.....

It's tale of despereaux, minus the s off tales. It's a mistake as that is a book and has nothing to do with the 'tales of' series and plus it don't have the S i doubt its a game.

Thanks on that clear up I only saw it in release date lists for Gamestop and I wasn't sure what it was and if it had anything to do with the Tales collection or not and it's a game otherwise it wouldn't be listed as 50 bucks.

*edit info* Apparently this title isn't listed on the gamestop website so I dunno whats up with it.
