Is the PS2\'s future as cut and dry as it seems? Well, TGS is next month and we shall see what new PS2 offerings Sony has for us.
-
uhuh
-
more clear for some than others, since your xbox goggles give you some kind of distorted perspective on most things reverend
-
I predict big flaming wars in the forums after TGS.
-
Wow, this thread is pretty, well... pointless.
-
I concur, Unicron! :D
As for you Wegabush, I can say the same of your rose-colored PS2 glasses. Only a fool thinks that the PS2 can\'t lose. I on the otherhand, never even mentioned the Xbox because it has zero installed-base and I don\'t own one.

"Jags, I think that\'s already been established. We all know that Xbox will be three times more powerful than the PS2. However, that doesn\'t mean diddly squat if it doesn\'t have the software to back up that impressive number. Gamestock and TGS are next month and we\'ll see whether or not Xbox will be three times BETTER than the PS2. Microsoft have gone on record to say that they will own TGS and that the show will belong to the Xbox. They better not be bull****ting the Reverend."
Is that what you call never mentioning the xbox? maybe not in this thread, but who cares. you\'re not cool if you put words in peoples\' mouths and then call them fools, where did i say the ps2 can\'t lose. oh by the way, my ps2 glasses have a blue tint to them, not rose
-
yeah.. this can be a war after TGS... a won war I think ;)

WegaBush, I wasn\'t talking about you when I mentioned that. Don\'t be so quick to be offended. As for me mentioning the \'box, it was in response to Jag\'s post in ANOTHER TOPIC!!! As for you, you brought up Xbox first. Now you\'ve turned another PS2 post to an Xbox flame war. :D
-
i thought when you post a thread, that\'s what it automatically becomes
-
Well, be aware of that, because only a fool makes hasty judgements. :D
-
C\'mon now let\'s get the glasses colors right at least;)
Xbox=Green colored glasses
PS2=Blue colored glasses
Gamecube=Magenta colored glasses
DC=...well...the glasses are all busted up lying on the floor;)
:):)
-
xbox=green w/ vaseline smeared on the lenses

Your still dead wrong anyway. PS2\'s biggest chance to show us their glory is at E3. Everyone knows that. The TGS is nothing when compared to E3,PS2\'s future probably won\'t be decided until then most likely.
I think I smell XBOX here...MS wants to impress the Japanese market because they hate the American console so they want to show them some awesome stuff then at the TGS. However, Sony on the other hand won\'t make such a big deal of the TGS because they pratically have the Japanese market owned and at their finger tips. You just want everyone to think TGS will be Sony\'s biggest chance,then when it comes along, MS will have a brilliant show. After,your gonna start *****ing about ," well MS owned TGS and PS2 didn\'t so it won\'t do very well blah blah blah".
Trust me everyone,Sony\'s future WON\'T be decided at the pittyful little TGS. Nice topic Rev,you\'ve almost made us believe that Xbox wasn\'t involved at all.

You guys are reading to deep into his post. He never said anything about TGS determinig PS2s fate. He said that we would have a better idea of what Sony has on the horizon.
BTW, Wegabrush, why are you turning a harmless thread into a flame war. No matter what Rev\'s intentions were he did not flame anybody or anything so you are in the wrong this time. Don\'t think because someone is generally regarded as a troll that you can flame them no matter what they post. The mods are equal oportunity banners.
-
i think jumpman nailed it with his post, he just put into words what i was also thinking. just read the way rev phrased his first post
-
X-Box will dominate the TGS and E3, hopefully. I really hope they do. We already know what the PS2 can do (look at Baldur\'s Gate: Dark Alliance videos!), now it\'s X-Box and Gamecube\'s turn.
Of course, no matter what any of them do, they won\'t top Dreamcast and SNES.
-
Ah for God sakes Reverand GROW UP, wipe the droll of your Bill gates poster and go out and get a gilrfriend you sad W**ker !
FFS man , who cares because most people will already either;
A) have already GOT a PS2 and won\'t buy another console for a while
b) Have a PS2 and are thinking to either get another console or upgraded their PC.
c) They don\'t have a PS2 but are getting one.
d) They want a X box and are waiting for that.
e) They want a Nintendo Game Cube and are waiting for that.
f) They are too buzy playing with their PC\'s
g) don\'t even want a console and hate games (so why are they reading this).
FFS man there is not going to be a END to SONY, MicroSOFT or NINTENDO !
for a start
1) Sony have already started to dig in for the launch of the X BOx , and as we know about SONY they are used to long fights in this market (see the demise of the other console for example).
2) Microsoft want a cut of the gaming market , but even though they have "all the money in the world", they have still to establish themselvs , with will be hard but not imposible for them seeing that they are first up agains the PS2 and then the Gamecube.
3) Nintendo will arrivelate, but as we all know they want revenge, but on the other habd buy the time they come on the sceen they will have to face the established PS2 and X BOx, AGAIN NOT A DIFFICULT TASK.
you see Reverand Retard !
SONY , MICROSOFT and NINTENDO have DIffrent markets to play to.
SONY have there fanbase establised thanks to the PSX
Microsoft will go for the Gen X type gamers
Nintendo have their hard core fans too.
OH i hear yo say OOSEVEN your a Sony fan boy,
well your wrong Reverend Retard !
i Support
PC games
PSX (just got Final fantasy 9)
PS2 (getting one in MARCH! )
Nintendo Game cube (GOD i love ZELDA games :) )
Reason why i didn\'t include the X BOX ?
well i already have a PC why buy a second one ?
thats my view so screw you if it upset you :laughing:.
-
nicely said ooseven! Everyone settle down please. These are just videogame systems, not our lives! They are for fun! F----U----N
-
yeah too true the only whay that you will get me to part with my console and PC systems , is with a very big gun.
people will stick to a system they like and no amount of hype or money will change that, This should be a golden age of gameing ( well it will be when the X box is here) why have Trolls like Revernd X spoil it for every one :mad:.
yeah i said i can\'t wait for the X BOx , it\'s not that i want one, its just that theors nothing like a good bit of compentition to get the good games a Flowing :D.
in the end SONY needs Microsoft and Microsoft needs SONY, the thing it they both know that, why don\'t you Rev ?
-
Your still dead wrong anyway. PS2\'s biggest chance to show us their glory is at E3. Everyone knows that. The TGS is nothing when compared to E3,PS2\'s future probably won\'t be decided until then most likely.
what the hell? PS2\'s fate decided then? i dont think E3 will make or break Sony...then again...i didnt read the rest of your post, im lazy
-
Shut up Bob! Don\'t surport the troll, your giving him more confidence and I think he\'s ready to come out of the bridge again for some more anit-PS2 shiat.
Oh,and I said probably. I shouldn\'t of used the word fate but what I meant to say was "the real offerings". Or something like that.:P
-
I agree with ooseven. Every console has its fanbase; a fanbase that is not shattered easily.
About PS2\'s future. It just CAN\'T fail; not even under the pressure of X-box. All the great games coming.. FFX, GTA3, MGS2, Wipeout Fusion, Dark Cloud, Timesplitters 2.. why ppl forget the good games and jump onto X-box or Gamecube?
Of course there\'ll be wonderful games for Gamecube and X-box also, but I think in the end, the \'war\' is not going to crush any console.
But again, this opinion may be terribly wrong as well. Just look what happened to Dreamcast.
But if we go to dreamcast ( its success does indeed include to this subject about Sony ), I gotta say that it had a serious fanbase. Did it leave sega? Did it leave dreamcast?
Remember Saturn, and its terrible flop. It drove away Sega\'s fans. But now as we speak of Sony. Playstation was no flop. It still sells, and it has sold VERY WELL. Ppl know it. Ppl buy PS2; Sony fans are not driven away because of Playstation. the consequences are opposite.
Every sony-fan knows how good game MGS is. As is Wipeout and Final Fantasy serie. They KNOW that the PS2-sequels will be unbelievable. They buy the console just for those games. Don\'t worry about Reverend\'s ideas, as they\'re troll-like opinions with no good back-up.
If a console is on thin ice, it is x-box. It may have some pc-gamers on its side ( as it will have the most pc-ports ), but it doesn\'t have a fanbase from console-side. Not a serious, trusting, worshipping fanbase. It has of course ppl like Reverend, but I hope, and know, that every X-box fan isn\'t like Reverend. But X-box\'s success will be more connected to the marketing and advertizing, and E3 etc. etc.
