With the exception of GOW, the Ps2 was awful. Filled with crap, the only good games were ported from the Dreamcast. And GTA3 was horrible.

So, everyone knows it sold the most because of the dvd player and Grand Theft Auto, which is a shame, because the Dreamcast games blow them out of the water.

Powerstone2, Phantasy Star Online, Sonic Adventure, Skies of Arcadia, Soul Calibur 1, Street Fighter Third Strike, Tony Hawk 2, Jet Grind Radio, Shenmue, Marvel vs Capcom 2, RE: Code Veronica, and Evolution.

PS2 was the greatest system ever!! They had the best games. I have no idea how you didn't like it. The ps1 was good, ps2 was the greatest, and so far the ps3 is pretty goood. PS2 by far was sony's best console, as well as mine.

Swing and a miss. The PS2 is pretty much the only console in the history of gaming to offer such a large variety of quality titles spanning multiple genres. My PS2 collection numbers at 35... and its missing probably a good 60-70 titles.

This is easily among the dumbest topics to ever be created on this board. Really, you should get some sort of award.

You should blame Sega and not Sony for killing the Dreamcast... I owned DC as well, awesome system but im not blaming Sony cuz Sega didnt have money to support it.

I was going to ask the same thing. As for the TC Soul Calibur 2,3 pwn SC1. Also THe PS2 didn't have to many titles ported over from the DreamCast. PS2 was bad? Are you kidding me the PS2 is the best home console ATM still. With over 34 titles I still play my Ps2 over my 360 and PS3( 40 GIG )

I don't remember the DreamCast having great titles like: MGS2,3, Persona 3,4, ICO, Shadow of the Colossus, Okami, Dark Cold 1,2, Final Fantasy X,XII, Valkyrie Profile 2, Odin Sphere, Shin Megami Tensei 3, Digital Devil Saga 1,2, Silent Hill 2,3 and so much more. The DreamCast was a good system but it has nothing on the PS2 esspecially JRPG wise

I love my Dreamcast but it doesn't take away the fact that the PS2 was a monster of a console with great quality titles. Sorry but your topic deserves this.

Personally I wasnt a big fan of the PS2. But the system had a lot of quality titles. From an objective point of view it would definetly be among the best consoles of all time.

lol why play tony hawk proskater 2 on dreamcast? when the tony hawk proskater 3 on ps2 had online support...and was just a better games all around.

the dreamcast had advantages like beingable to play quake 3 and unreal tournament 1999 online...while ps2 versions had better graphics sony didnt have network adapter out at the time so shipped without online support.

socom 1/2 i know kick ass....i know 3 probley kicked ass also.

ps2 had some great games.

That still pisses me off to this day....i really wished the ps2 versions of quake 3 arena and unreal tournament 1999 supported online play. i think the ps2 version of ut1999 might look better than the pc version in some aspects i forgot.

quake 3 kicked ass because they added exclusive content for ps2 version man.

i wish they'd release these games on playstation 3 network with online play that would **** rule.

I think the ps2 version of unreal tournament 1999 is a direct port of pc with some graphical improvements from what i remember.

but no online play.

the dreamcast version would of been a direct port of pc...but the dreamcast didnt have enough main/cpu memory to hold the game's assault mode maps too large to fit in the memory...so to make up for it they made a bunch of exclusive dreamcast unreal tournament 1999 maps they kicked ass game supported 8 players online.

you can no longer play it online though because gamespy shut down the master server those sorry bastards.

Sony needs to give quake 3 and unreal tournament 1999 another chance :) lol release them with online play on playstation network for ps3.

3drealms...just released duke nukem 3d for xbox360 with online play.....so why shouldnt sony try to do the same with some ps2 classics? just update them alittle add online play maybe improve graphics alittle? hell i dont care they'd be cool to give playstation gamers a chance to play games online they never got to.
