hello boys and girls!
i ve got some hot news for us diehard PS2 owners. I just saw a few screenshots for upcoming PS2 exclusive KILLZONE. Remember that name. It's going to be huge. HUUUUGE!!!!!! It's developed by 'Guerilla'- Europe based Sony's new development team. Everything about the game is still hush hush! All I know is that it's due for the first qurter 2004 release, sometime! The game itself is a first person shooter, but by the looks of it it's going to rival Halo 2's massive gameplay and graphics. The word is that it's likely to be even more engenious and inovative. All I have to say about the subject is: 'HA HA', to you X-box owners. I think it's long overdue that PS2 got some great FPS, as X-box kicked it's but in FPS genre department. But no more. I just hope there will be no delays or such, and the game will rise to meet it's skyhigh potential and expectation! Well done! well done indeed!!!
By the way does anyone have any info on Ico 2???? I know it was anaunced, than canceled(delayed maybe??), than some screenshots came trough, than they show us nothing on this year's E3, till I don't know what to think anymore! Thats really strange move by Sony at best, since Ico is one of those games that could really make a difference, don't you think???

Can't wait for Killzone.
Or Socom 2 for that matter.
They fit my 1st/3rd PS requirements entirely.
The console wars?
Each to their own. I don't think it's necessary to argue the facts (which anyone interested in gaming already knows). Anything outside the facts is just bias.
It does keep the forums lively though!!

Ah, that's fair enough, I found the same when I was looking around. There are plenty that would help me, with using PS2 controllers on the X-Box, but as you say, I couldn't find any going the other way. Sorry!
*Everything else
Too be honest it's a little too late now. I was looking at a PS2 when I had my N64 but now I have my GC and Xbox there's only Tribes: Aerial Assault that I would like to get. Everything I wanted is now on the GC and/or X-box.
I've just tried to load google.com, but I'm having problems with it, oddly. Anyway, if you don't have any luck with google, I'm sure there have been discussions about it on this site before, so you could probably just start a new topic asking where to buy adaptors.
I have looked before. The converters I found were to make PS2 controllers work on Xbox and Gamecube.
It is quite infuriating.

I think there are adaptors you can buy. I'm afraid I can't really be much more help than that, but if you put in a google search you might be able to find an adaptor that would let you plug an X-Box/N64 controller in to the PS2 and use it that way. It would obviously need some tweaking to make sure the right buttons did what you wanted, but I'm fairly sure its possible.
*Shrugs*
Forget it.
I have tried very hard in the past to like the way the Playstation does things: I can't.
I dislike the controllers, the quantity over quality approach and amongst other things the gall of Sony to release a multitap for the PS2 after every other manufacturer had decided 4 ports was the standard.
Despite this I would actually own a PS2 and a small collection of games if they'd actually released an alernative/updated version of the controller.
They haven't so I stuck with my N64 until the Xbox and GC turned up.
So whether there is a great line-up in the FPS games genre or various other game genres is really a mute point because until they can actually make a controller that I want to play games with I won't be bothering with any of them.

Phew... glad we both saw the funny side of that one.
