The searches are now running on the Sphinx search server. Sphinx is designed for full-text searches and is a perfect match for the forums. Because the searches are running on the Sphinx server they no longer cause general forum slowdowns when a large # of searches are done at once.

If you are interested, there are a few tips & tricks you can now do to get more specific search results.

The "|" character allows you to do an OR search. e.g., search for: mario | zelda

The "+" character allows you to require a word to be part of the search. e.g., search for: (mario | zelda) +time

If you surround your search term in quotes (") then it will search for that exact combined term. See the difference between: of legend and "of legend" You'll notice that The Legend of Zelda is not included in the second search.

Good luck & good searching!

So Sony finally announced an official price drop of the nine year-old Playstation 2 system. About damn time. From what I understand, it remains the most-played console -even considering the current generation. Given this and the "tough times" (I hate referencing it, especially with this terminology, but it's true. A note/soapbox moment: the recession wouldn't be half as bad if the media didn't take the chance to BS on it every fifteen seconds. SB moment complete), the PS2 will probably see a jump in sales of both the console itself and the software base. So?

Give us some good games already! For the past couple years, all us PS2 owners have received is poorly-ported current-gen titles and recycled sporting games. I'm sick of having crappy "new" features in my Madden and NCAA! I'm completely through with purchasing lousy [and frankly awful] games such as Iron Man! If you're going to continue officially supporting this platform, demand that developers develop good, solid, and real games - not simply subpar ports. And yes, I'm being quite forgiving when I say "subpar." I really mean s*&#@$ as f$*#. It's an embarrassment to the company and brand when awful ports come to the most-played system that the recent Gamespot article refers to as a "cash cow." If it's so much of a money-generating component of the income model, develop good games! I don't really see the issue here. Not only would licensing be dirt cheap [comparatively], if the price was $20 or $30, gamers would gobble it up. How about a re-release of the God of War series with some extra levels for $30? Hell, I would be first in line! What about a new James Bond game (which was not ported, but developed specifically (not exclusively) for the PS2)? Again, I would be right there! The issue will be developers and publishers expecting us to pay $40 or $50 for a port, which I simply will not do.

Obviously, I am among the income grouping which cannot afford the $400 PS3 (basic model might I add) or $300 Xbox 360. Hell, I'm running a PC from five or six years ago (P4HT 3.0GHz, 512MB RAM, 5700LE @ 256MB). So give us something good. While I don't mind walking into Gamestop and grabbing a couple PS2 games for ten bucks, I would definitely salivate over a brand new, high budget PS2 title. I can only replay what I've got so many times!
