PS2 was a fad. Casuals bought it because it was a cheap DVD player from Sony that also played games.

Now the fad is over.

Wii is the new fad. Casuals are buying it because they can get drunk and have a laugh with the controls, and it doesn't cost as much to buy as the other console.

The Wii fad will be over by 2011.

Surprising for a someone of your level. Anyways, stuff like furbie, and tickle me elmo, thats fad material. people are really interested for a short time, and then they lose that interest because it repitive. PS2 however, a console That has sold 150 million units worldwide, a console that continually beat the **** out of its opposition for about 6 years, Is not a fad. Its reign of ownage is over because there is a new generation out.

The wii however is a fad, oncepeople have got over its new innovative controller,its just a super-charged GC. Good day :).

I think we can all (well mostly) agree that the TC is completely wrong and needs to stop making a fool of himself i.e. making threads.

No.

I'm a lemming/PC gamer and even I know that is complete Bull.

By your logic Magnavox Odyssey fans are the hardcorest (>.>) of them all.

IMO the best CONSOLE was the xbox. PS2 just had so many good games on it.

The best PLATFORM is/was/and always will be PC. No matter how you look at it.

Then it was the best and one of the longest fads in history.

Unlike Wii which has only been out for half a year, and the game library sucks. In fact the whole console itself sucks right now.

Trading_Zoner

Caugh the PS2 didn't ahve any games for it's first year either.

Cough at least it was not an underdeveloped piece of hardware with poor long-term planning and horrible graphics for it's time.

Huh?Yesitwas.

HOW in the world can you do "hardcore gaming" on a KIDDY console with games only for people under 10 and with ps1 graphs?????????

Funny, that. If anything, the Wii is a hardcore console, because it doesn't have any useless accessories *cough*Blu-Ray*cough*, it just plays games, which I do believe Video Game consoles are primarily used for.

You could go the whole nine yards and say that it doesn't have any accessories atall *cough*no DVD*cough*:?

So according to your logic the PS3 is a fad also because its a cheap blue ray player from sony that could also play games, go on the internet, play online ect.

A fad is a temporary notion. The PS2 was on top fpr years.rhaigun

The Wii will also be on top for years but it's still considered a fad.

The same way a hardcore D&D player plays his games with nothing but a pencil, paper, rulebook, and imagination. Unless of course you want to argue that this D&D player isn't hardcore, but last I checked, D&D wasn't exactly a casual experience.

What makes you think every single one of those fans have remained sheep during the entire time ? I started with NES and SNESthen I converted to a hedgehog/cow/hermit and considered myself that since despite owning an N64 (whichI didnt get until 2004)and formerly owning a GC. The PS hardcores are former sheep and hedgehogs.

The ps2 sold the most out of any consol ever, but you know its just a fad.

It has more AAA games then any other system, but that just means its just a fad

It is still putting out AAA games (god of war 2), but its just a fad

It was the first system to have successful online play, and no one plays online anymore that wasjust a fad
