I jus think they need to stop makin new games for an old system, especially games that are also on ps3 *cough svr 08*.
Its kind of like a big middle finger to anyone who bought a ps3

but yea the exclusives would be a good start in passing the torch to the ps3,cause as long as theres games coming out for both nobodys gonna find the need to get a ps3

The PS2 still makes a pretty good profit for SONY, since not everyone can afford the PS3, the PS2 is still more popular then the PS3, whats wrong with that???. I plan on getting a PS3 maybe in the Fall, but until then my PS2 will do just fine, if people can't afford the PS3, how do you expect the PS2 to die and the PS3 succeed???

I see it like this: since they continue to allow games to be made for the PS2 there was almost no point in even releasing the PS3
even if PS3 has games that PS2 doesnt people will be inclined to stick with PS2 cause its still around
so to solve this they should offically kill PS2 meaning no new games for it
I think if they can get great exclusives on PS3 even people who cant afford it will want it,and if they price drop to 300 I think thats enough to make them switch

PS2 cant last forever
so theres gonna be 400+ games for ps2 to mod
wheres the 400+ games for ps3 and the 360 or the WII??
if developers keep making games for PS3 and 360 and PS2.
the PS3 or the 360 arnt gonna be showing off it's potential because it's using what ps2 only has to offer.

Your logic is flawed my friend. Sure, there are a few PS3 games that are on PS2 as well, but most of them have worse graphics, or a missing a ton of features. No point in releasing it? Hmm, lets see, to make money, to enter in the console wars, to upgrade technology, etc etc.
The old PS2 games are still better than most of the games on PS3 anyway.

Sony needs to move it's focus on their current systems rather then their past ones over 7 years is enough for it.

Im fine if they still sell ps2 and games,just quit adding new ones cause it does kind of stop people from buying ps3 (I personally know people like that)
how does Sony expect to beat the Wii or 360 this time if they cant ditch the old system? will they just always have 2 consoles out? is Sony competing with itself?
and Mickey thats what I meant by almost : )
anyway Im really tired so I'll bbl

Thats right. I can see a good 2 more years of PS2 games until the games start dying down.

Some people like myself dont want to spend over $400 or fork over a huge amount of money for games just because it has "Better Graphics". PS2 games may not be fancy looking but its a game, its fun games and the games are Dirt cheap now. Stores are pratically giving games away for the PS2 because its so cheap. Im not talking about recent games im talking about old games like for $5 a game.

all Im sayin is its kinda ludacris that they have two systems out that are receiving alot of the same games,which would probly be better just on ps3
but to me it looks like nobody wants to let go of a great thing, even if its for the best
