"Sony also confirmed it has entered an exclusive deal with Electronic Arts Inc. (NasdaqNM:ERTS - News; ERTS), the largest video-game developer, to make nine of its online-enabled sports games available exclusively for PlayStation 2 through 2004."

From LA Dow Jones Business news.

I could say that 'in my opinion, Hitler was a fine, upstanding young man'. But he clearly wasn't.

Har har. I meant when I said 'MGS and GTA exclusive' I was referring to the sequels. Not side spin offs or whatever Twin Snakes is.

Have you played it? The engine WAS overhauled, everyone has accepted that finalyl EA are 'getting there'.

Again, name calling.

My Ico, Amplitude etc. etc. was 9 games. I didn't bother to go out of my way to list all the big games coming to the PS2 like you did with the GCN, just the few online ones that caught my eye and the big exclusive coups.

'Smaller PS2 with 3 mediocre games'? The PSP isn't the PS2, it's a handheld multimedia machine.

I listed 9!! And I could add more!

Oh, and so you know.

The EA bloke at Nintendo's press confrance has just announced NBA Live for the GC, as well as all it's other sports games.


So not just online for the PS2 then.

PN03 did not bomb in Japan, and Billy Hatcher has the potential to be a hit, or are you saying world renowned Sonic Team are crap developers?

It isn't, it can only be the best in someones opinion; you contradicted youself there.

Yeah, but that's because you know jack about whats going on isn't it.

Since when was FIFA, Tiger Wood, Syphon Filter, GTA and MGS 9 games?

It's 5.

Spelt 'f-i-v-e'.

It's also the number of digits on one hand or foot.

Got it?

I don't. But when you make ridiculous claims like:

"OMG!11 SMALLER PS2 WITH 3 MEDICORE GAMES ONLINE AND MGS AND GTA EXCLUSIVE. SONY PWN TEH GAMES INDUSTR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111ONE1!!!!!!ONE!!!!!"

Then quite frankly, someone has to stand up and call you an ar-se.

pfttt

Opinion really, but too be honest I can't really see any blockbuster games on the PS2 anymore. If you asked everyone in the forums what console line is looking the best, I doubt the majority would say it was the PS2.
