Playstation 2 is too old for me to keep the same level of interest as the Wii, Xbox 360, and Playstation 3. I thought the original Playstation died at the year 2001, but it officially died around 2006, the same year the Playstation 3 was released. The Playstation 2 is just so old now. It's practically on par with the Dreamcast, power-wise. Sure, graphics do not matter to me, but the Dreamcast was out a long time ago, which gives you an idea of how old the Playstation 2 really is. I mean, the Gamecube, and Xbox are both officially dead, hardware-wise, so why should I pay any more interest to the Playstation 2? The only new games that will be released for it will be mostly sports games, and movie-games. Will there even be any more first party games released for it? It's not dead to me, it just joined the group of older consoles, like the Nintendo 64, and Sega Genesis, in that I will play them occasionally, mainly the nostalgic factor.
