most games don’t age that well, the psx era is my favorite, but saying the the quality of the ps2 games was low is just wrong, I will give you some examples jack and daxter, is one of my favorite 3D platformers, the ps2 also had ratchet and clank, and sly, metal gear 3 is considered the best in the series, ffx ,ffxii, persona 3 and 4 are some of the most beloved jrpgs of all time, devil may cry 3 was the high point until 5, San Andreas was the birth of the modern triple a game, resident evil 4 is still considered was one of the best games ever, and silent hill 2 is considered the best horror game ever, not to mention that 3 is amazing too,I could go on.so your statement that the expectation for games was low is just wrong, not to mention that other consoles also put up a great competition, if you don’t like the ps2 that’s fine but just don’t go saying that it was a dark age and the expectation from gamers were low.

I'll give you that the PS2 got better in as it matured.  I've just got a problem with video games in general from around 1995-2002 with a few exceptions and the Sony in particular epitomized the worst of my issues with the era.  There were some ugly growing pains.

that’s personal taste, I would love to see a jrpgs half as good as xenogears these days or a tactical jrpg like fft ...and lik3 I said in another post the first 3 silent hill games are untoucheable when it comes to horror.
