Forums - Microsoft - Is the Xbox 360 library about to take over the ps2 library as the greatest?

I dont know if u can say an opinion is wrong, but the 360 doesnt have, well, Final Fantasy(yet), kingdom hearts, nothing like GOW, shadow of the colossus, ICO, Metal Gear Solid, etc...

The only thing that the 360 might be superior to the PS2 are shooters.

The PS2 has one of the best libraries there are around, the only ones that can compare to it are the SNES one, and the original Playstation.

Also, great IP´s were born during the ps2 era, such as devil may cry and others.



Around the Network

I want both, If i get GT5p I need the wheel, only way ill play racing games anymore. And I have no money. Hmm I wonder how much uncharted is used on ebay.

This is totaly opinion based, man. I like JRPGs more than other genres, so guess what? PS1 > PS2 for me. And SNES > Both.

If your point was just that 360's library is more diverse than that of the Ps2's, you are also wrong. To say such a thing you are either very young, started playing this generation, are a ridiculously high Microsoft fanboy, or a combination of the 3.

There were crazy cult games on the PS2, there were high budgeted ones, there were some indie ones, sports, shooters, RPGs, you name it... I mean Katamari Damacy was on PS2, as well as GTA SA. That just says something.


Diversity = quality?

Anyway, for someone who starts gaming now the PS2 games may be extremely terrible no matter the value that you give them. They don't play as well, they can have much poorer frame-rates, they don't look nearly as good on a 53" HDTV and these are pretty much as objective as you can get for a subjective comparison.

 

 



Tease.

1. What a stupid statement.

2. The 360 does not have:

- A Metal Gear Solid game

- FFX and XII like the PS2, XIII does not count since both the PS3 and 360 are getting it.

- MARVEL VS. CAPCOM 2

        like the PS2.

 

I could go on and on.



because PS2 library is the greatest one ?

...



Time to Work !

Around the Network

I could of sworn the Dreamcast had the top spot....(If anyone tries to take me out of this dream world you will suffer....^_^)



Former something....

Nothing will come close to the PS2 when it comes to quality games. We will never see anything like the PS2 ever again.

The truth is among us.

Play B3yond

This is laughable. Not even in the same league.

Who says the PS2 library is "greatest"? I can only think of MGS, SoulCal, Kingdom Hearts, Dragon Quest, and God of War as worthwhile exclusives (the exclusives in those franchises, I mean).

 

It isn't about exclusives, it is about the diversity in the games. A better library is not just one that appeals to you it is about the library that appeals to the largest amount of people.

 

Shadow Hearts

Final Fantasy

God of War

Ratchet and Clank

Jak and Daxter

Call of Duty series

Time Splitters series

I can just keep on going and going, but by now the list is pretty damn long and I am sure I am getting the point across.

 

And my point still stands - that "greatest" is entirely a matter of opinion. There's no comparing, because you'll always find masses of people that disagree.
