Yes you read It right.
Jeez what a serious let down!
Ever since I had my system since the famous Price drop the days of disappointment continued to gain momentum, day after day.
At first I said, hell, not a bad system. But urghh, the 'Supposed' gaming greats really showed what this system is really worth!
Ive quite a healthy selection of Title's now and I have to ask one thing: "Where on earth are all the wonderful games?" "Where on earth is the wonderful Dreamcast beating visuals?"
Yes I have to say Many of the Dreamcasts games surpass anything I have seen on PS2!
Take a look at Skies of Arcadia, wonderful visuals, wonderful game and yet there is nothing of it's type on PS2 a year in!
Sonic Adventure 2 and Even the Shenmue series would put all the PS2 title's to utter shame.
Simply being the reason that we where all promised a 'Super-Duper' visual machine coupled with the oh so supposedly lovely 'Emotion engine', but darn have I saw any evidence of visual splendour! Where Is It?
Even Metal Gear Solid 2 going by the Demo doesn't even surpass the visuals of Shenmue 1 or 2!
And don't argue that It does, because I have the games and It doesn't!! Full stop!!. MGS2 Demo is good yes, but weren't we expected better from the Great PS2?
And thats just the visual side that Disappoints, theres the problem with the 'oh so many great AAA games' too.
Ive my fair share of the supposed PS2 greats and boy have I grown tired of them! I didn't at first mind you, but then I realised, 'Dreamcast could do all that! But with the PS2 We where promised better'!
And so we where!. I know what I'm talking about too, Im a true PS Fan with a Gigantic library to put many to shame.
On the let down's, one example Iv'e seen In recent days Is Crash Bandicoot on PS2, to be totally honest I didn't see much difference in this game from It's PS counterpart!
Why Is this? Come on PS2 Developers! give us something with a bit of oomph!!, give us what we where promised!!, visuals in next gen style!!, GTA3 was recently a prime example too of great gameplay but lacking in the promised Next Gen Visuals.
And you know what? Can you really blame Sony giving a statement in releasing a successor to the PS2 within 2 years? After seeing the visual might and technology of Gamecube and X-box?
Who can blame them, In my opinion, the PS2 is a BIG let down and thats that, Iv'e changed my opinion yes, but then I have givin the system long enough to prove its worth and It hasn't!
(I'm expecting to see the Zealot's quoting part's word for word, yawn!)

I find that hard to believe, considering I have over 170 in my garage.

I have grown from being fond of the PS2 to total disgust and extreme disappointment.
Nothing wrong with that.
I'll not be selling It either, I've still FFX and MGS2 to experiment with.
And let me tell you, talking about comparing Shemue II with anything the PS2 has to offer, I'm telling the truth!! It's just these people don't like the truth! Sonyphiles they call themselves, when in fact they know damn all!!! More than likely sub-16 year-olds who like to think they are.
I know what I'm talking about. Don't tempt me to elaborate.

"The Biggest Disappointment In Gaming History" - shouldn't that be the GBA. Badly lit screen, obscene software prices, rehashed NES games, etc, etc....
lol!
Another has turned from the dark side!
Come and let the sweet sweet Rogue Leader make it all better!
