Console Review

PT.1: PS2:

With the beginning of the era of the 64Bit era by "Atari Jaguar" back in 1994, it wasn't far behind to have more consoles working on the 64Bit engine, like the N64, the Sega Saturn & the first Playstation. The latter was released by Sony entertainments and you needed to plug a device for the colors, then they removed that and later on they remade a slim version of the console, that started the trend of the release of Sony PS home console and a slimmer version in later years

The original PS2 came really big, still smaller than the PS3 slim, but big, and you need it to be connected to the power and activated to be able to place game DVD's in it and play them. By turning games from CD's to DVD's it improved their quality a lot, enhanced much both graphically & in game play power, more improvement for so many games: "Final Fantasy" finally had voice actors, "Metal Gear" & "Silent Hill" have much better graphics, "Resident Evil" gained more quality, etc etc. Game pad is the same thing for the previous consoles with analogues (yeah, I mean the PS1 controls with analogues, don't worry), so you can use both PS1 & PS2 gamepads on it

Later was released the newer version of this console, the slim version is really slime, maybe quarter the volumeof the original console, it's even smaller than a 13" laptop, you can carry the whole console with accessories & a bunch of games on your back back and it doesn't make you feel lots of weight on your back, it's light and good, they even removed the requirement to use power to insert and remove discs and this is a great improvement, it's much easier that way to clean from dusts that go inside

Some of them came with adapters, some without them, the adapters turned out to be mainly extensions for the wire, not much of a power source[u]

OMG

in that second pic the controller is on with no power supply o_O

The only flaw with the PS2 is that it has some FPSes on it and a network adapter to enable online play. If you ignore both of those, it's a near-perfect console

The PS2 slim has ethernet built in.

No wonder I never ended up buying that travesty

I decided to change this thread from PS2 review to a console review in general, since it's just too many threads to review all gaming consoles

And this is to give other gamers a chance to review their gaming systems

PC is a great system for gameplay, especially if you play games of other systems on it, the better your PC the better it is for games

1. A lot of console-to-PC ports are crap.
2. Better PCs are better for games? NO SHIT SHERLOCK!

That's only the fault of the developers though, any game that's properly optimized for each platform is always better on PC.

You're insulting me? I'm so gonna tell daddy
Since you admired the genius mind I have, I'll look into my heart to see if I can forgive you

Too bad there isn't a "Joker Smile" emotion

PS2 had awesome fighting games and the best controller that used them

Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhe

PS3: Man, does that system heat up, and I lost "Soul Calibur 4", also "Assassins Creed 2" freezes a lot, and I heard that slim (the one I have) doesn't heat up as much as the original version does. I hate PS3, maybe I won't be getting even "Shattered Dimensions" for it. "Arkham Asylum" I'm getting for PC, but I won't be getting "Arkham City"

Honestly, there could be something wrong with your PS3. Mine's never really heated up that much.

Mine's never really heated up much either.

Windows 7 is a gift for PC gamers, it has great audio & video enhancements, before it I was unable to play some of my games with comfort:
Assassins Creed -Fun Game
Web of Shadows - Wish it was done much better, so far I wish it never came to existence
