ok so the games out now arent that great (with the exception to the jaw dropping GT3)and most of them are sequels...but heres the thing these are just the first generation of games!!!! remember when the playstation first came out it had titles like Ridge Racer and Tekken which we all oooed and ahhed at but now 5 years on they look and play..well to be honest crappy.We had to wait at least 3 years for deecnt titles like the resident evil series and the final fantasies.The games on the PS2 now are great for the first generation just imagine what they will be like this time next year with titles like final fantasy X and metal gear... HOooooo i cant wait!
So dont be so impatient and if you dont like the PS2 just shut up if you dont have anything nice to say!

Yes... Just because you like your PS2 and games... doesnt mean everyone else does :)

PS2 owners take it personally when people say they dont like a game... but happily bash Ninty owners about their titles...

Also... I've noticed that PS2 owners do often start topics like Why the PS2 is the best console ever and why every other console is crap...

I'd say they are just as guilty as Nintendo owners :)

I do find PS2 owners are often a lot more defensive than other console owners...

Ninty's have said more about the PS2 than the whole of the sony forum, it's quite sad and you can bet you life that anything bad said about the PS2 came from a jealous N64 owner.

don't belive me go browse around.

PS2 owners all seem happy with their console and with the games around £15+ It's fantastic.

No you didnt :) ...

You said that the PS2 didnt have many good games out...

And although the PSX was released it had lost of titles people marveled at, (however five years on they look a little dated)

I suspect that people bash the PS2 because tyhe GC and X-Box arnt out to bash yet...

When they get released, people will question them too... dont worry :)

You can be a 'Sonyphile' without having to bashing other machines though.

You have to admit to and accept your machines little faults - it's all part of the charm and character that attract people to a machine.

I know the the PS2 isn't God's gift to gamers - there will never be a 'perfect' games machine. But I will defend it against childish comments, distorted truths, and outright lies which occasionally appear on these forums.

I'm always among the first to defend PS2, but the best way of doing it is to respond with facts, rather than "Pah! Your Nintendo's sh!te" comments. The fact is there's nothing wrong with Nintendo or Sega consoles or games, in my opinion - they just don't appeal to me as much as PS2 and its software. Does anything else really matter?

My opinion is, if people don't like PS2, it's their loss, not mine. My opinion is they're missing out on some great stuff. That's not their opinion though, so fair play to them - it's not really any of my business!
