Sony have just announced that the Playstation 2 isn't reaching expectations and with complaints on certain systems not working and the loading times being "Too long" and that the games aren't what people expect them to be.
So Sony have declared that instead of waiting for the Plystation 2.1 to re-release the system they are making a complete overhaul of the PS2 to be called the Gamestation and with the Emotion chip 2 and specs to challange Gamecube's and even X-box's.
The bad news is that the already made PS2 games don't work on the new system and all games in development including MGS2 will have to be converted on to the new system so inevitably delaying all the most popular games by several months.
The PS2 is Sonys first taste of failure, Nintendo have their virtual boy and Sega have their well everything.
Here's to the future

It's watching the GBA.
Wouldn't that hurt? I mean...what do they do with their other eye?
As of yet, Konami are doing nothing but keeping an eye on the Gamecube. No more.
FM is Tamaral, by the way.
Here's a little conversation I just had with FantasyMeister on MSN Messenger:

tell him to check his source
Tamaral (182:13:10) says:
NOM is just one big April Fool, except it lasts for 12 months
Coolio Santos says:

Coolio Santos says:
Dringo just said one of his sources was NOM.
Coolio Santos says:
Along with N64 magazine.
Tamaral (182:13:10) says:
