Well, E3 is here, and eh, does it look like the PS2 is finally dead?

There are no major PS2 announcements from Sony.

No top quality Sony games, no nothing about the PS2.

No online wants, no single player wants, just nothing.

A not very interesting announcement about Cell workstations by the end of the year, and a hand held device.

So, the PS2 finally dying?

We've got Metal Gear Solid 3, and Gran Turismo 4 to look farward to as exclusives, woohoo :D

My Xbox might be my favourite console in the coming months, Doom 3 Live, Halo 2 Live, The Red Star, PES Live, and the full EA lineup Live, yes I want NHL on my Xbox.

Microsoft are now THE major player in the games console industry, and Live has swung it for them.

Ace Combat 5 will be good, granted, AC4 was immense in my opinion.

San Andreas will be a top notch game, but still, It's not really anything worth getting that excited about the PS2 for this year.

We know that it will com out on the Xbox eventually, so the prospect of playing it on the same system as Doom 3 and Halo 2 need to make it essential that Sony does something worthwhile.

I think the lack of interest in online gaming for this console generation is finally coming to bite Sony and Nintendo, the fact that both companies new handhelds will support network multiplayer gaming has to a concession that people are ready and wanting this technology in their games, now.

I'm seeing lots and lots of Sony stuff. I think you're just not looking.

Ace Combat 5 is my highlight so far.

PS2 has been about for a while now so Sony seem to be concentrating on what happens next, we already know about most of the big PS2 games to come - (Killzone, Nam67, MGS 3, GT4, GTA San Andreas etc)
But I admit it has been rather quiet for all formats.

PSP was the big news for Sony this E3, DS for Nintendo and not much for the XBox.
