I never owned a PS2... I saw my brother in law with his, two of my cousins with theirs, some of my friends bragged about it... I got to play it, loved Vice City and Yu Gi Oh, but never got a chance to buy one... Until this week. Tomorrow I'll probably play my own PS2 for the very first time!

My love for JRPGS got me to buy one, since there's so many exclusives JRPGS and other genres. I haven't even plugged in the console, and I already bought 12 games for it. Such an amazing library it seems, I hope that it'll provide me with plenty of fun and joy just like the good old GameCube did and will do while I play Baten Kaitos for the first time.

Which games did you got?
Let us know about your experience with it

Well, I got everything used. College is on the horizon, and Dem books are expensive... So I kinda need to save money. But the console that I bought, came bundled with 5 games already: Hitman 2: Silent Assassin, Tony Hawk's Project 8, Phantasy Star Universe, Dirge Of Cerberus: Final Fantasy VII, and Final Fantasy XII. The first two I don't care about, but the last 3 I was going to buy anyway!

Then I bought black label copies of Final Fantasy X, and Twisted Metal Black. And yesterday I came across a used game lot... It includes some Casino game, Tony Hawk Pro Skater 4, WWF Smackdown Bring It, Devil May Cry, and Xenosaga... All for 10 bucks! I was going to get Xenosaga due to the fact that the trilogy is the main reason I bought the console for, so the other 4 games are just a bonus.

I'll buy new copies of Persona 3 FES and Persona 4, never played a Persona game before, and also new copies of the Digital Devil Saga! Neogeo Battle Coliseum, King Of Fighters XI, Genji, Metal Saga, and many other games :)

Twisted Metal alone will be worth it.

I still play sometimes PS2. San Andreas, Ratchet & Clank 3 and Tekken 5 are all great games which are even today playable.

Dr.Vita talks about Playstation Vita in 2016!
Playstation Vita Media Create Sales (2014 vs 2015 vs 2016)
Playstation Vita Japan Retail Software Sales (2013 vs 2014 vs 2015 + 2015 LTD Edition)
Prediction: Nothing will outsell PSP anymore (except Playstation home consoles)

I retired mine because I had a PS3 with BC, and I sold the damm PS2.. Sad story is that my PS3 went YLOD and I bought a slim model withou BC. So my PS2 library is there without use.

I did the same thing with the Wii U, but since it seems that all of them will have natural BC, I am not worried about loosing the Wii catalog I own.

Retired mine around 07 when I got a PS3 with Motorstorm! Although I had to boot it up a few times afterward for FF12 + Rogue Galaxy. The PS2 era of JRPG's is legendary.
