Its the quality games and excellent joypad that makes PlayStation 2 really good. Fortunately the PS2 has kept the same Joypad (+ all analogue instead of digital buttons!) and updates of our favourite games such as FIFA and Grand Turismo.
Graphically its very much better in every respect to the old one, having 32 Mb of RAM, a 128-bit running at 300 MHz and a 150 MHz Sony graphics chip that can do about 66 million polygon per second.
The PlayStation 2 is NOT as fast as a PC tested against a Geforce 2 Ultra and AMD 1.4 GHz on the first person shooter Red Faction.
Grand Turismo looks and plays even better. The FIFA game too looks good, but again the PC version looks graphically better which brings the PlayStation 2 into perspective. Other footy games include 'This is Football' which is graphically better but Pro Evolution Soccer exceeds in game play. PES3 is the new version out and is definitely the leading football game out at the moment is certainly my choice.
It also plays DVD films and is well worth the original £200 asking price if you don't already own a player (believe me DVD quality is earth shattering) then you should buy this.
For 3 years after its release, it was THE console to buy. But along came Microsoft's first console, the Xbox, which looked like the fastest console to come out. Then came Nintendo's new console the GameCube which has also changed many people's perspective on what to buy.
Conclusion
All 3 consoles are very good, but its the quality and range of games available that makes the PlayStation 2 my choice of console. If you love your sports, and am prepared to pay the extra then this is the console for you!
