Does the PS2 live up to your expectations?
« Reply #15 on: February 06, 2001, 02:27:09 PM »
At its launch there was no game on the DC looking as good as TTT or RRV or Timesplitters.(Still no game as good as TTT and timesplitters).And then the phenomenal SSX came.

No. Despite lowering my expectations repeatedly leading up to the launch, I was still expecting something more. Like 1 or 2 games (barely) looked better than DC games, and of the rest, half were near DC level, and half wouldve been ****ty even on DC. I expected a bit more graphics wise than I got for a system supposedly 10x as powerful. Gameplay wise I knew what I was in for...


We are not talking about its launch only.We are talking  about PS2 until now.And we can see the future line up.Thats  what makes atleast my expectations higher and higher.
You can see some of the best games ever both graphically and gameplay wise being ready for the PS2.

Virtua Fighter 3tb
House of the Dead 2

PS2

Madden 2001

SoulReaver you forgot DOA2 for PS2 which i think is the best.  Also Amored Core 2 was alright.

Hmm... it\'s pretty much even then. :p

Is DOA2 any good? I played the DC version and it had a very LOW replay value.

Well, RR5\'s graphics were horrible, Hydro Thunder looked and played as good. Timesplitters, aight, I agree, a damn fine launch game. TTT might look a *little* better in the US &UK than Soul Calibur did, but Soul Calibur was a better game IMO. Since the systems \'10x\' as powerful and came out a year later, thats still pretty pathetic.

Yes and then some. DVD works great. Games play great. Looks cool as hell. I make sure there is never a speck of dust on it at all times.

While i do enjoy the PS2 a lot i am also not that impressed with anything i have played graphically, but from what i have seen on the other hand things look very promising

But for now - In Some Ways . . .

SoulReaver, whether or not you like DOA2 is really a question of whether you like fighting games or not.  People debate over which is the best TTT or DOA2.  I say DOA2 but either way those 2 are 2 of the best.

This is my favorite fighter and I usually play it more than the others, even Madden.  It\'s got a good Survival and Tag Mode.  I like it\'s TagMode better than TTT.

If you have 2 players, or more, it never gets old.

Well its still extremly early in the life of a console, But things are looking up with games coming out soon.

Onimusha falls into this category as does ZOE

but up to now of course the promise has not been met

I\'m not saying that ps2 is bad or anything, (keck, its on of the best) but it doesn\'t live up to the hype caused by the media (it would have been impossible to meet this ammount of hype)

I hope this will all change when the second generation of games arrives

Well I\'m sure SOny will have a solid offering of great and good titles, but its obvious that there will be a pile of **** to go with it. With so many developers signed on to develop PS2 games its unavoidable, not all of them are going to be able to cut the mustard
