PS2 was like when console gaming took over the world

I'm just not seeing the ps4 numbers being near ps2 yet in its prime i believe 150 million of those consoles were sold yes were 3 years in but its just not there yet.

Now were in the age of PC gaming a new king has come a new reign of pc master race.

Nice troll thread.

Any way the PS4 is outpasing the PS2 in time frame,and it took 12 years for the PS2 to get 150 millions.

Pointless thread. But I fully agree that the ps4 will never surpass the ps2.

If the PS4 is niche, Xbone is a niche indie developed in a basement by 1 person!

The Playstation compared to the competition had built up an excellent reputation with both developer and the consumer. Both Nintendo and Sega deservedly lost the market lead for arrogance and incompetence.

The Playstation 2's success well before release was guaranteed. Although the Dreamcast had far better software, none of that mattered. Sony with it's good reputation, hyperbole about it's technical prowess and doubling up DVD player. It will probably never be replicated that success again.

PC on paper should be aclear winner, the problem is it's user-base. They simply do not buy games or support most developers as console gamers do.
