Seen here...

One of the more interesting parts of the article:

According to the results, more Americans spend time using their PS2 over the Wii, XBox 360 and PS3. Quite amazing that a system much older than the rest still manages to outdo them in terms of usage. Details of the usage were not clear though–users could be using their PS2 just to play DVDs. As it stands, the PS2 does not stand up to its competitors in terms of graphics.


Wouldn't surprise me. How many here could openly acknowledge that they use their PS2 over all else. I can and I have a PS3.

I do as well. Then again, only have a PS2 and Wii.

I love how they mention graphics differences. No shit? Maybe the PS2 just has great games for a low price, morons.

Keep in mind, these are the same people that deal in reviewing things that make most drool like Crysis and full speed.

They don't deal in normal populace, hence the name of the site.

Meh.

I still don't find it all that interesting. Feels more like a "duh" moment than anything, tbh.

I guess the target audience for that thing was the 'OMG GRAPHICS' gang. Shock article for the geeks really.

I still sell a crap load of Ps2 systems, especially used. It's cheap and there's a load of cheap games for it that people are willing to buy a lot of.

Personally, I haven't touched my Ps2 in about a year, maybe more.
