Ok, first things first, I don't hate the PS2. I think that is a great console with great games. What it bothers me is this. Everytime they announce a multiplatfrom game, and they announce it for the Xbox360, PS3 and the Wii..suddenly they also make it for the PS2 too. weird huh?
Yeah I know, at first one thinks: "oh, ok, the PS2 has lots of users and is an obvious choice"...until you find out that the studios that make the PS2 versions are handling the Wii versions too! Alone in the dark 5, star wars force unleashed and sonic unleashed are some examples:
The results are games in the Wii that looks like PS2 games. And that sucks a lot. We all know that the Wii is a "Gamecube 1.5" or a "buffed up Xbox(1)". So that means they can do games much better than the PS2.
But since the wii appeared, companies are so lazy to make (good) games for it, first with the wii mote device and now with the technical aspects. I know that the Wii doesn't had the same horsepower of the xbox360/PS3 but it can do much better than the PS2! heck even much better than the Gamecube and the Xbox.
But because the PS2 is still out, companies won't give a damn and keep making mediocre ports without even getting advantage of the Wii.
Yeah is not the PS2 fault but companies. I suppose that until the PS2 is out (which seems to take some time) we keep looking mediocre games for 3d parties. and that's unfair.
