The PS2 was globally the best selling home console of 2006 and is still outperforming the XBox 360 and PS3 in global hardware sales.
I think the same arguments used to defend the Nintendo Wii can be used for the PS2, for simple fun games you don't need the best sound and graphics. And of course the PS2 has an impressive install base and a price advantage over the Wii.
The PS2 games I recently bought for my PS3 are good fun, games Ape Escape 3 (cartoon-like Japanese graphics) and God of War 2 (almost looks like a next gen game) even look pretty good. Tiimeless beauty, I would even appreciate many years down the road nomatter how much more impressive PS3 games like Rachet and Clank or Killzone will be.
