The stats are just predictions from the boss of Sony.

It doesn't matter what he thinks. The fact is that the PS2 isn't getting any new games that are worth having.

So as far as everyone who has a 360 or PS3 is concerned, its as dead as dead can be.

I have a PS3 and I won't sell my PS2.  And there are plenty of great new games for PS2.

I still have both my original PS2 and the mini-PS2 I bought for my 'gaming' PC room. Both still have their classics that must be revisited every now and again . I definitely think that the 'last' generation of consoles had/will have a longer lifespan than the newer 360/PS3/Wii. Only because technology races forward at such a lightning speed nowadays, as does consumers willingness to purchase electronic goods and consoles. Back in the PS2 / N64 era people were more interested in a console they could use for a solid 5 years!

I have a 360 and I still have my PS2 as well. But it doesn't get played and there's certainly nothing on the horizon that i'm at all interested in.

The only reason developers still make the odd game for the PS2 is because the PS3 is so awful.

Awful yes, but it's the best piece of hardware out there.

I wouldn't say its awful. Hard to develop for yes (Sony need to stop with the propriety hardware. Seriously), but devs get good results if they put the time in.

I think its far more likely that PS2 games are made because of the huge install base and because its a lot cheaper.

Developers find it hard to code for. Blu-rays storage capacity goes nearly unused and has a poor read speed (hence installing games). High price tag and one good exclusive title. The PS2 was hard to develop for but because it got good exclusives (like GTA3) people bought it which encouraged developers to make more games for it.

Yeah i'm still not at all convinced about Blu-Ray.

I think it looks ok. Sleek and black. Not a fan of its curviness though. The 360 has concave curves making it look thin. The PS3 has the opposite, making it look fat. It's a bit huge.

What?  Poor read speed?  Blu ray unused?  One good exclusive title?  You need to use a PS3 instead of reading Xbox fanboys forums.

You have no right to complain about fanboys, you are the biggest PlayStation fanboy I have ever seen.
