i was recently converted from an x-box strictly gamer to the ps2
because of the lack of imaginative, epic games on the x-box. the ps2
has a far wider range of creative story driven hard to forget titles
that no other console can seem to offer. although the x-box
continuously promised great games to come (halo2, fable, driver3, full
spec warrior, etc) none of them could even scratch the surface of the
league that games like metal gear and final fantasy found themselves
in. when you consider the vast library of ps1 titles as well, the
artistic talent and creative genius backing the ps2 is mind blowing, to
say the least. i have to admit that i still hold a soft spot for rally
sport challenge 2, infact it is arguably the best x-box exclusive game
created to date. 2 days after halo2 came out and i had finished it, my
x-box days were finished as well, it is an okay game, ill give it that,
but thats all i'll give it, specially considering how hyped the title
was and still is, if that was what i was to expect from one of
microsofts most important games to date they could go f--k themselves.
so like i was saying, 2 days after halo2 was released i took my x-box
and my special edition of halo along with fable, splinter cell pt, and
sadly freedom fighters and rally sport and i marched into eb and got
rid of it all. i've been playing vids since 1988 when i was 7 years
old, and i gotta tell you i've sold alot of my old systems and games
over the years(ive regretted selling almost all of them) but this time
around i feel great, honestly in all my years of gaming getting rid of
my x-box was the best decision ive made. i love my new pstwo, its nice
and tiny and its got free online, but most importantly its
got(including the ps1 games) the largest library of games of all time.
rock solid games. sure it might not have the graphics, sound, 4 player
support out of box, or as good dvd quality, but none of that is as
important to me as a great story driven beautiful imaginative creation
of even 1 of the thousands of games there are to choose from on my
little ps2.
