Does the PS2 live up to your expectations?
« Reply #45 on: February 07, 2001, 09:03:45 AM »
I for one wasn\'t impressed with the launch either, I also have dreamcast and he graphic level of the dreamcast is similar to the launch games, I was a bit disapointed with the graphics of the launch games, but looking at the games that are coming in march, I know  It\'ll live up to my expectations.
ps. gameplaywise only timesplitters really gave me something to talk about (yet), but then again, on the dreamcast I have ten games, and for some reason they all (except for soul calibur) seem to be somehow incomplete, I dont know how to explain this, maybe the lack of a good controller and a lot of buttons, but they always seem to lack something, for instance le mans, I like it, in fact I\'m playing it most right now ( I\'m always finished with the 24 hours race, damn the rain constantly poors down, very depressing), but although you can tune your car, you can only do it a bit, and although there are more tracks, they\'re all a bit the same.
did anyone get my point?

Not yet still waiting and waiting for those killer apps no not the ones that thrill for a few moments but some truly revolutionary games. I will be impressed if Drakan and GT3 live up to the hype.(dynasty warriors made me feel like I had a ps2)

Like I said, I\'m not impressed, but I don\'t expect to be. I admit, when I first got it , I expected to be. I was impressed with the DC at first. But then I realized something. The DC was the first jump from 32 to 128. That was a big jump. The PS2 was second to come, so natrually it wouldn\'t impress me as much as the first time. And then I thought about the developing problems at first, and realized that it is just going to take the PS2 alittle more time before it really impresses it. I expect that will come in March.

now now, hitting things is a little unneccesary, don\'t let a game get you angry!  j/k

Anyway, I would say yes, Sony is a reliable company(aside from the shortage that they couldn\'t help) and a PS2 is definatly a good buy.  Works as a CD and DVD player as well.   Infact my next project will be hooking up my PS2 to a sound system.

Does the PS2 live up to my expectations... Well it definetly didnt.  I prefer playing my DC or N64 way more than my PS2.  My little brothers dont even play it.  None of my friends like it either.  I personally am questioning the 300 dollar investment I made and the 6 hour travel time I spent to go get it.  The fact that I have a very desired piece of equipment that most everyone wanted was sweet... but now I think I would warn everyone not to get one or atleast wait a few more months or whenever some of the newer games come out like MGS2 and GT3 come out here in the US.  SSX and Madden were teh only games that impressed me even slightly.  I do like the DVD abilities and the graphics are very nice  I cant wait till Xbox... maybe it wont suck.

well I have to give my sympathies to the person who bought a broken ps2. That really sucks.

Anywho My ps2 has definitely performed up to my expectations. Although I\'ve yet to see any really superb games for the ps2. But what do you expect for first gen games on a new console.

However I CANT WAIT TILL MARCH. ZOE WITH MGS2 DEMO!!! But yah im quite satisfied watching my dvds on my ps2. So my answer to the original question is

OH HELL YEAH!!!!

Well, I think the PS2 version looks a little better but there is no major difference between the two,honestly. I don\'t see why everyone is going around saying "its the first 2nd generation game",that\'s crazy.

20$ for Rayman2??? Not worth it.:D

I am going to reserve all judgements on the PS2 until this fall when I plan to pick one up. Right now I am very excited about it\'s potential and my speculations as to what Sony has up it\'s sleeve concerning their online plan. There are a few games out there that I\'d like, but nothing I can\'t live without.

I guess it all comes down to.. Can the PS2 live up to my expectations? - Yes, and it undoubtably will. Has it lived up to my expectations so far? - No, but it\'s still very early in the game.

Rayman Revolution for the PS2 just has some added levels and a few other gameplay features, its basically a full port of the the DC game using renderware 3

Rayman Revolution is a cool game though, I\'m having more fun with it then I thought i would, and thats really all that counts

Yes, Rayman Revolution is a cool game! And it still is the best game out on PS2 at the time... or that\'s my opinion.

And I recommend it if you don\'t have the previous versions of the game. I think that if you have the DC version already this isn\'t such a must-buy, but worth a check still. The visuals are VERY nice...

In a word : YES. Even if there are not so many good games out now, even if most awaited games are delayed...

SSX and Timeplitters are both terrific games, with terrific
graphics, it\'s damn fast and beautiful...

I\'m no doubt playing on a next gen system
(I dont have any DC, so for me the improvement was huge...)

Uhh I didn\'t expect much...I think the ps2 has been average so far..nothing made me say ohh while whoooa
awesome dude yet but I still play TTT all the time and doa2:D And with all the media hype it was kinda bland after you played it for a while, but i think if something is hyped that much 9 times out of 10 it won\'t live up to it. But when more games come out it will be a lot better.
