Production of the PlayStation 2 reached the 50 million unit mark after 2 years and 10 months from its initial debut; 1 year and 2 months faster than it took the original PlayStation console to get to the same point, said SCEI. It also comes just 4 months after PlayStation 2 production passed the 40 million unit mark—this quick jump being helped by record sales of the console over the holiday period.

SCEI said it sold a total of 8.5 million PlayStation 2 consoles during November and December, a jump of 24 percent on the previous year. Of those sales, 4 million were in the North American market, 3.4 million were in the European market and 940,000 units were in the Japanese market. End of year domestic sales were down 27 percent; however, those in North America and Europe were up 42 percent and 27 percent respectively.

Along with the console there are also more than 1,500 software titles available, production of which has passed 300 million units, said SCEI.

I don't like the line of keys (top right) on the XBox handset. GC is ok - but then they did copy the PS2.

Alright, it's not the same - but you have to admit, it's a bit similar.

FPS = 1st person shooter. Splinter Cell is 3rd person.
Anyway, what about RedFaction 2, TimeSplitters 2, Quake 3? They are ok on PS2.
