It makes sense to keep supporting a system when it still lives, yes?

Well, the Playstation 2 has yet to die. So I can see why they would continue to back it up.

My fatty is still in good condition. But I may get one of these new PS2s out of reinsurance. It's still showing a lot of life, but I still expect it to just abruptly die one day. Paranoia more than proof.

Shoot, I hope the PS2 lives on a while more. I just got one several months ago and am only now beginning to crack into its huge library. I've been nothing but impressed. Even if the system ends up dieing, I'm still going to be playing the hell out of mine.

It's cause it's easy for them to port games from the Wii. If you notice the publishers that are still supporting the PS2 are releasing the almost same games onto the Wii.

YEAH! I will support this extended death rattle! Way to drag it out Sony. I for one love the PS2 and will buy any decent games until 2010 and beyond. Hell...I'm gonna get another PS2 just as back up. Can't beat the price for a wicked system.

Don't get your hopes up people. Other than Yakuza 2 I don't expect anything good coming from Sega for the PS2 - maybe more crappy sonic games or sonic spinoffs. EA will release their yearly sports games and maybe racers - games that don't change much, more like updated rosters and skins.

Licensed games and the majority will probably be marketed for younger kids (i.e. the gamers that need parents to give them money to buy their games, gamers who wouldn't have access to next gen systems because of their price).

The PS2 is definitely still alive and kicking. It's my primary console at the moment, and probably the biggest reason why I haven't moved on to the Next-Gen consoles yet. There are still so many amazing PS2 games that I've yet to purchase, let alone play, and obviously there will be a few more on the horizon, like Rock Band. Like many others posting in this thread, I'm still playing the original fatty I got 5+ years ago, but I'll probably buy a new slimline once the price drops again. Long live the PS2! :lol:

You and the Euro boy are the ones who cleary see the picture. Umm, I think the motion control rumor has been shot down by Sony. The fact is, if you want the next big thng, pony up some cash like what I finaly realized and go next gen. I'm pretty much set for the next GTA, RE, GT, FF, and those future underrated games that will go unoticed. What you're all hyping up for is probably crap. The PS2 is pretty much dead. Compare this holiday from last year, no good.
