I was so excited when G4TV was relaunching and watched it for a day and realized it was trash. Such a shame. The entire cast and line up of shows was cringe. At least I can re watch all the old G4/TechTv shows on RUclips. Cinematech was so good as well as many other shows. 😢
It was extremely exciting. Graphical differences between console generations were just much much bigger then you see today so every new console blew us away. This was also before micro transactions which gave us more to do in games cause there were cool things to unlock through gameplay. Now days it's just unlockables behind a pay wall.
Like a step back into memory lane. Thank you for this. I fondly remember looking forward to coming back home from school because this would air about the time i arrive back home. Me and my brother would geek out at all the games and consoles we could never own.
The best console ever. I have over 10 consoles in my collection, from (Nintendo) famicom to the PS5.My PS2 however, is my number 1 and always will be. Thank you uploading this.
Maaan I remember getting one for xmas that year, I didn't think I would be able to get one until the next year (2001). My mom was able to snag one from my uncle's gf since she worked at Kmart at the time. When I saw that blue box under the tree, I literally ran around the house with it yelling with excitement. I didn't have any games on it yet but I didn't care; I just rented games from Blockbuster to hold me down until I was able to get my own games. I think I had just started 10th grade at the time. Good times!
Man that one really hurt me as a kid lol. I remember being so sad when the new oddworld game didn't come out for PS2, cause I was such a fan of the first two games. It made me hate Xbox cause I was so envious, I guess thats how fanboys are born lol.
3:23 that is so funny because when the PS2 came out it was so hard for devs to make games for it as Sony was not giving out proper documentation. Capcom devs had so much issues making DMC1 that they went to the GameCube for RE4.
4:49-5:33 Fast forward to 2001 and the PS2 already cemented itself as the best console of the 6th generation, although the GameCube and original Xbox were fantastic as well. GTA III made the PS2 the console everyone wanted to play.
I would agree. I was a huge Nintendo fanboy back then, but in hindsight Sony had enough firepower to win the gen. for me, Id say MGS2 and 3 won it for them, in my book.
I love ps2 so much , my love for gaming is what got me into tech and computer science stuff and learning how (or at least trying to learn) how these consoles worked. I eventually learned that the 128bit marketing hype from the early days of the ps2/dreamcast was actually referring to is 128bit(2**128) sized values for processing calculations at the same time which contain multiple numbers which is used to help the graphics hardware figure out how to draw objects and environments on screen. In those days they really needed to use the next bit number to hype gamers up but most of the system that wasn't directly related to the graphics hardware isn't 128bit at all so they had to stop using bit numbers to advertise while in the old days 8/16bit consoles had a lot more 8/16bit(2**8/2**16) calculations available across all elements of the CPU and other hardware so it was less misleading advertising than in the n64-early-ps2/dreamcast era :P
Wow it felt like yesterday but how time flies I was at the E3 1999 PS2 & Dreamcast Launch and got to meet and get autographed photos of Kate Bottelo and crew, Laura Croft's Tomb Raider, Sega Dreamcast Space Station 5 crew and more.
I was 3 when I went with my dad to the OG Xbox launch it was hyped at the PS2 was my fave though too many games to play. I remember having to wait till 2004 when they were widely available
@KindaBlueInGreen oh there absolutely were resellers selling the ps2 for $1000 on ebay during late 2000. I've seen it mentioned in other PS2 launch videos from that time on youtube
Gen Z has social media with all of its depression, antisocial and fake lifestyles, while our Millennial Generation had PS2, Xbox, and GameCube! I am NOT envious of Gen Z, only sad that our own golden age will live on only in our memories...😢
Hit dog hollering bro I see 45 year olds swerving a Prius thru traffic staring at their phone dang near daily nowadays, nobody cares about you or your polycule I would like to get home to play my own PS2 please make that easier on me man ☠️
Millenials are as$wipes, and part of the problem, if anything you are a xenial (look it up) or gen x. Millenials are mostly insane woke narcissists, which you are not.
The Greatest Era in gaming history. I love RDR2 with all my heart but i gotta say every great game series started from PS2 wether it was RD Revolver or MGS2, WWE SVR Games, God of War & so many more...If only i can relive the era again.
4:28 Tekken tag tournament 😍😍😍😍, I played a lot of tekken 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 & 6 (Playing tekken 7 as an adult , haven't got round to 8 yet) as a kid and I honestly have no clue why I never got my parents to buy tekken tag tournament (or tournament 2 or tekken advance) , I certainly knew the game existed at the time 🤷♂
17:10 X-Play Era Adam would've grabbed his bag full of money as soon as he asked the question, ran off with it and then tripped over a Final Fantasy IX case after just a few short steps.
What a time to be alive! I was 16 when all this was going down! You had to be there! Oh and 5:30 .. See? That power narritive back then still didn't matter, it was the games! Xbox please take notes and quickly.
Still have mine I bought on launch day back then..still works with no issues...I still think, next to the PS4's design, it's the best looking console they ever released...
Yeah, the PS2 is the best looking console ever released in my option. I also like the original Xbox 360 a lot too but something about the PS2 looks stunning. Not the slim but the phat boi.
@@cryptocsguy9282 I put that one away after getting a PS5 at launch in 2020. The PS4 is one of my favorite PlayStations ever - it has so many great exclusives, awesome graphics, and many great memories associated with it.
I worked at a Babbage's at the PS2 launch. Sony sent us a whopping 10 PS2's on launch day. We had 236 pre-orders. They sent us 10 more before Thanksgiving. Then they sent us another 20 a few days before Christmas. After that, we didnt see another shopment until Gran Turismo 3 came out. Around the end of Summer 2001, we started seeing them a bit more regularly. But we were maybe getting 3-6 consoles in at a time.
@cryptocsguy9282 we had plenty of Dreamcasts, Playstation 1's, and N64's. Even when the Gamecube and Xbox launched, we got shipments of both on a fairly regular basis.
Always really wanted a multitap for the PS1 and PS2 because it looked so cool, but i barely had anyone to play 2 player games with so i necer had the need for it.
Crazy, I was already playing my PS2 3 days before the street date (23 years and 3 days ago). I remember I got a call at 10am that Monday that it arrived. My coworker and I went to pick it up on our lunch break. I had 3 buddies offer $1000 for my pre order the week before when I bought Street Fighter EX3, Tekken Tag Tournament, FantaVision and Ridge Racer V. They still hounded me to buy it for months until they eventually got theirs in December from a Circuit City that released abandoned pre orders. Couldn’t believe how many people were paying thousands for them on eBay.
@@mansuru for 2000, not really. Ten years prior in 1990 my TurboGrafx CD was $400. In 1992 my Sega CD was $300. 1995 was particularly expensive starting in May with the Saturn at $400 and September with PlayStation at $300. Yet nothing beats the NeoGeo Gold I got in 1991 for a little over $700 with tax. It came with Magician Lord, but the games for it averaged around $200 each. So again, the PS2 launch price of $300 wasn’t bad at all.
@@mansuru yup. The Gold version of the AES came with 2 controllers, a memory card and a game. I bought mine at Babbage’s in September of 91 (I was 15 at the time). I was originally gonna buy a Super Nintendo, but when I walked in, I saw the NeoGeo on the counter as the sales guy was showing it to a customer and his son (found out later the guy played for the CA Angels). I was listening as he went over all the features with them and got excited at the prospect of owning actual arcade hardware. There was also a Silver set which only came with the console and 1 controller for $400. There were 2 Gold sets in stock at the time. One included Nam1975 and the other Magician Lord. I think he also said they had a set with Baseball Stars, but were out of stock.
its so funny to me how the memory cards were sold separately ( i dont even remember how much they costed) but these days if you tried to sell a ps5 without the memory people would lose their shit lmao. i remember getting a ps2 for christmas one year and not being able to save my games at first cause my family nor i didnt know you needed a memory card at first
This is wild. I remember waking up to xplay before school, and then I would get back from school and attack would be on and then xplays recent episode.
3:30 Around the time of the PS2 launch or after it launched I read in a magazine, either Electronic Gaming Monthly or Official Playstation that described PS2 development as driving a Ferrari with bald tires on a wet track. Essentially it amounted to effectively maximizing performance was difficult. I think that was eventually addressed with the PS4 by making game development easier. Edit) Only 4 likes...ok. Even with scraps I still genuinely appreciate it. I read the other comments that got more likes...clearly overated and telling people what they want to read.
This is so cool to see this, imo the ps2 is still one of the greatest consoles of all time with some amazing games to this day my favourite ps2 games are: crash bandicoot wrath of cortex, Simpsons hit and run, test drive unlimited, raw danger!, jak 2 and ratchet and clank 2 😁
Yeah I still love the ps2 today I think the first game I played on it was crash bandicoot wrath of cortex I remember being amazed at the graphical improvements from the ps1
Probably not. I don’t think there will ever be a jump again. It’s too mainstream now and they will continue to spend as little as possible developing while maximizing profits. It’s a shame but it’s just the way it is.
@fcv1967 With the way graphics are it seems unlikely but as a person who studies chip design I can tell you that in theory it should be possible with regards to multiple ways to advance the speed and power efficiency of computer hardware
This console generation is really the best ever. PS2, Xbox, GameCube. I still go back to games from this era frequently.
Me too❤. I still consider this 6 gen (PS2-Xbox-GC) and 4th gen (Sega Gen/MD - SNES) consoles to have best games.
It was a sweet spot of power and memory but development was still cheap enough that people would take risks ob really funky games
It really was. I also enjoyed the ps3,360,& Wii era but, after that it really went downhill. The ps2 generation was the greatest by far.
And of course like the zoomer you are you disregard the Sega Dreamcast
Yeah I’m still amazed at how improved the graphics were between ps1 and ps2
PlayStation 2 is 23 years old today and one of the best consoles ever!
I'd give you another like but.. 69 giggity 😏
It is THE BEST console hands down

Gaming will never be this good again sadly and it's not just nostalgia talking. For me 1998-2013 was the best time to be a gamer.
Same as me.
Agreed. Makes me sad but also happy that I was lucky enough to experience the late 90s and early 2000s gaming.

Remember when games needed 0 patches to work?
They still had bugs regardless depending on the game.
However, the majority of games didn’t need patches.
This is when bugs were a feature
Yea I remember. If they had bugs, you were stuck with them.
@@JasonScalici You got the definitive version of said game 👍
Fun fact: A lot of games got patched when they got the Greatest Hits/Player's Choice/Platinum Hits treatment.

@fcv1967 With the way graphics are it seems unlikely but as a person who studies chip design I can tell you that in theory it should be possible with regards to multiple ways to advance the speed and power efficiency of computer hardware
Do you have the XBox or Gamecube release?
Best system all time
