Does anyone NOT have a PS2?

So PC Gamers must own consoles also to be considering a "legit" gamer?

I never really liked PS2 much, since I like multiplayer games more than solo games. I've had a PS2 for over 3 years and the only game I play is Winning eleven. I don't regret it though, since its hella fun!

The AAA games that u guys refer to, I played the PC ports (MGS2, the GTA games, etc). Its much easier with a mouse+keyboard than a analog stick.

I think PC has better games than the PS2. Im not sure about the quantity but I can safely guess the PC has more games too. PC games have reached a level of detail that makes most console games feel "kiddy". From my experience, anyone can figure out how to play console games after 1-2 rounds of button-testing etc. For PC games the learning curve is much steeper, this is the key point for me. Remember your first time playing counter strike? Have you ever tried playing World of Warcraft? Theres a lot of stuff you need to know beforehand.

I dont fancy con trollers I perfer the wide open capabilities of a keyboard and the diversitie you can change the controls to make everything much easier...

Certain games warrant a controller. FPS...no. Everything else, mostly. Real Time Strategys and some RPGs are the only game that I think you need to be tied down to a keyboard to play. The argument has been made that Halo players with a controller are equally as skilled as someone with a keyboard. Of course...that's just Halo. I'd like to see someone apply that logic to Counter-Strike.

I owned a Cube, Xbox, and PS2. I sold the Xbox and I don't have any games for the Cube (because I bought it over a year ago for Zelda: Twilight Princess...

My favorite games of the generation (ordered by console, not preference):
Super Smash Bros. Melee
Phantasy Star Online Ep 1&2
Resident Evil 4
Halo
Fable
Suikoden III
Suikoden V
Devil May Cry
Metal Gear Solid: 2
Metal Gear Solid: 3

Games I'm still waiting for:
Zelda: TP
Valkyrie Profile 2
Okami

Game of the generation goes to Resident Evil 4, but I don't feel it was enough to save the GC. Halo was great, but one doesn't need to own an Xbox to play it, if you know what I mean.

Oh yeah, and I bought Fable: LC for PC. It has glitches (non-legible text), but it's got some improvements as well. I have no reason to own Xbox.

The PS2 played DVDs, my old Playstation games (which I value more than my PS2 games), and a decent handful of PS2 games. That's what it took to stay in my room, whether it got played often or not.

Camelot > Klap Handz or however they spell it. Hot Shots 1 (developed by Camelot) was fantastic, and it's been downhill from there. I didn't play 4, I really didn't like 3, I unlocked metal mario in the N64 MG the day before I got HSG 2 (which basically means I did everything there is to do) and I still played more MG from that point on than I did HSG 2.

I dont have one. Never really wanted one, and if I did it would only be for the fighting games. All I got is the cube, and I'm quite satisfied, despite others...

no PS2 for me, ... but i've owned 3 since it launched. Keep selling em off.
