@d21lewis
despite all that, its hype led to one of its competitors going down......something not many launches of products let alone game consoles can achieve. YOu may see the achievement as "EVIL" but
If I was a hardware company, THAT would be my "desired/benchmark" launch for a "product" I take out.....what better way to launch it than its launch itself resulting in one of the competitors going out.
They are my reasons for PS2's launch being a "benchmark"
From a games perspective, you may have a point.
