PlayStation 2 Video Game Reviews
From LoveToKnow VideoGames
Following up on the massively popular PlayStation console, it is possible to enjoy a wealth of entertainment through the PlayStation 2 video game reviews. The PS2 was easily one of the most popular video game systems on the market during its heyday and even with the arrival of the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, the PlayStation 2 continued to endure.
Since the system enjoys an enormous library of thousands of games by developers from all around the world, there is an equal number of PlayStation 2 video game reviews to consider. The stronge games lineup includes several titles from the legendary Grand Theft Auto and Final Fantasy franchises.
Ironically enough, the original PlayStation was intended to be an add-on for Nitnendo's SNES system. When negotiations broke down betweeen the two firms, Sony released the system as a standalone console. It was a hit and the PS2 followed several years later, riding on the heels of its success.
Given the era in which it was released, the PlayStation 2 offered a lot more than what the competitors had to offer. In addition to the PlayStation 2 video game reviews, the console was able to play DVD movies on your TV. In fact, it was relatively cheaper than early standalone DVD players and this attributed greatly to its fast adoption rate.
The PlayStation 2 is home to a number of quirky Japanese titles that have made a surprising impact in the western market. Katamari Damacy from Namco was a PS2 exclusive. Other popular games included Tekken, Devil May Cry, and Shadow of the Colossus.
