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

MGS2 is AWESOME.

Anyway, I'm off to throw some guys over board on MGS2, and perhaps shoot watch some ice cubes melt on MGS2 as well!!

Actually, customers aren't complaining, and I'm certainly not, as I'm playing on the excellent ZOE and the great Star Wars: Starfighter!!

Also, with Shadow Of Memories to come (another Konami masterpiece), I'll be very busy for the next couple of months!

And where did you get that 'customers complaining' bit from?? Even The Game admitted that the PS2 line-up looks great!!
