So the PS2 had "weak" graphics eh?

PS1

PS2

pS1

ps2

what's the point?

ps2 graphics sucked balls. it still had the best games. that's all that matters.

It was weaker than the GC and Xbox,but still had some good looking games.VGobbsesser

The leap from one gen to the next was instantly recognizable.

We didn't have to "wait" and see to know that the PS2 had better graphics. No doubt that it was a next gen console. No questioning if it was just a PS with a dvd player inside. You turned it on DAY ONE and said "wow this does look better".

I actually think many PS2 exclusives match Xbox/GC's exclusive game graphics.

God of War 1&2, MGS3, Killzone (game sucked but had nice graphics), Silent Hill 2, Okami, Shadow's of the Colossus, Ico, and so on...

as the generations go on, the leaps become smaller, surely youve seen this from xbox-360 :?

Really cannot see your point. Of coarse the PS2 showed up the PS1 just like the PS3 showed up the PS2 graphics have you ever heard mo moores curve?

They are extreme examples on the whole there was no contest.

I wouldn't say that. Games like COD4 and Gears of War are quite a leap. Even games like Dead Rising ushered in brand new elements only made possible on the new hardware.

Still angry that the Wii's kicking ass, huh? Yeah, a lot of haters are.

So please stop comparing the instantly good looking PS2 to that white little box that is struggling to prove that its not a last gen console. Its an insult to the PS2 and all those who knew its awesomeness.

Still like to brag that crap is selling eh?

I take it when boybands were all the rage you went around bragging about that too. "Hey the backstreet boys is outselling all you good talentedbands! IN YOUR FACE!!"

I got some gold colored turds I'd love to sell you sir.

This topic blows harder than the 2007 Yankees.

Why not come straight out and tell us there is not much of a graphical difference between the GC and Wii?

try comparing it to the xbox -- what the hell does showing that it's better than PS1 do? lol -- it better have been better than PS1.3picuri3

I dunno other consoles are having trouble besting their last gen iteration.

I've never seen a game that could make realistic graphics that looked better on the PS2 than any other system. The only actually comparable game is God of War II, and that came out in 2007, and can still hardly compete with 2005's Ninja Gaiden Black.

The PS2 made up for it's incredible shortcomings in the same way the Wii will, with games. The online was also mediocre, clunky, and obsolete, but it was still fun.

why didnt you just say that from the start. We all knew thats what you were aiming at :?

It was the weakest of the three systems, but not by a whole lot. Certainly nothing at all to complain about when compared to the Wii / Xbox 360 and PS3 gap.Timstuff

Not by a whole lot? I disagree. The only two amazing games are SotC and GoWII, in terms of graphics. Every other game fails when compared to an Xbox or GC game. Okami excluded, as that is an game aiming for artistic direction.

yep prettty much, this is a weakly vailed attempt at saying the Wii sux, Or is it the 360? they are both white but since he says lil then....all i can say is that the Wii has nothing to prove its kicking the crap out of both systems right now, and the 360 is kicking the crap out of the ps3.

It must suck being the big black box thats really only a glorified blu ray player, and is geting its butt kicked in sales.

I own all 3 systems and so far i own 10 games for the Wii, 15 for the 360, and 2 for the ps3.

The PS2 was released in Japan in March, 2001, in North America in October, and in Europer in November, MGS2 was released in November 2001, more than a year afterany launch, FFX was released July 2001 more than a year after the Japanese launch, and Tekken Tag had already been developed for the arcade, so the time had already been taken to acheive those graphics, so if you're going to judge the wii based on this, you have to wait until at least this holiday season.

Well, none of those hit, say, Riddick.

And Killzone had horrible graphics. I'm sorry, but "lotsa polygons full of glitches and poor performance" is not "good graphics", it's a good powerpoint presentation.
