I dont understand that too,,,,maybe these japanese people are simply stubborn and tradition,,,360 still looks like a stranger to most of them,,,ps2 has no advantage except being cheap,,,360 is also cheap,has better graphics and better RPGs

 

 

that's what i'm saying , people above said that's the ps2 library is great and i don't buy it

old games are hard to find , we are in late 2008 so almost every ps2 game is old XD

are you kidding? graphics I can agree ,but RPGs. NO! The PS2 is known for the best RPGs available.

ok ok i'll try to convice myself that "super robots wars" is the reason although it will make me sad because trusty bells and the other game -edge- or whatever the name is failed to push the ps3 in the same way

Its cause PS2 is still pumping out alot of new JRPGs which the Japanese love. Graphics are not important in a JRPG to the Japanese. Its about the story/experience that they go for with JRPGs.

The one BIG mistake made by the PS3 taking out backward capability all these new PS2 owners may have went to the PS3 if it could play there PS2 games



PS3, WII and 360 all great systems depends on what type of console player you are.

Currently playing Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2, Fallout 3, Halo ODST and Dragon Age Origins is next game

Something tells me that a game that sells over 350,000 units first week, will move more hardware than a game that sells 35,000.

Simple maths FTW?

 



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

it's the ps2 we are talking about ,, 7 years of great games >>>>> "super robots wars" so i think it's reasonable to think that gamers who want to play this games have ps2

i don't get the spike the ps2 sales had , there are no great games coming out for the ps2 either

maybe i'm wrong ,, i created this thread hours ago and i lost intrest lol

You must be the biggest troll in the world, i think you made this alt account to simply post this absurd comment.  PS2 is king of RPG's and if any console rivals that it is Snes or PS1.  Back to your cave.
