Behold the best year in gaming. Sony always wins
>>338239509
It was all downhill from there.
I dont recognise any of those games
All I can think about is the disaster Jak 2 was.
>>338239583
time to buy glasses then
>>338239509
Ehh...Microsoft 2007
it don't stop
>>338239608
What was so bad about Jak 2?
Ace Combat 5 is better
Champions of Norrath is better
meme arrow liking devil may cry
FFX is the best FF, i'll give you that one
muh yearly racing simulathon
there are people who play unironically like Gta
SotC is much better
the year of our lord 2001 people still playing platformers
MGS2 is extremely overrated and people only started to appreciate it after matthewmatosis video or whoever it is
Silent Hill 2 is good
>>338239509
Wins what though?
All of your money?
>pstards clinging to the past
>>338239509
>MGS2
>SH2
>DMC
>Ico, though I didn't play it until 10 years later
>FFX
>all in the same 6 month timespan
>tfw 8 years old and just got a brand new PS2 around this time period
kids will never know how good it was
Shit hardware that held back an entire generation.
>>338239509
it's like you only play on one platform, bro
>>338239846
>FFX is the best FF, i'll give you that one
Every FF that came before it (II and VIII being the only exceptions) is much better.
>SotC is much better
That's unfortunate because I thought SotC was boring and unfun as shit and not even half as emotional or 2deep4u as the rabid fanbase claims it is.
>the year of our lord 2001 people still playing platformers
And?
>MGS2 is extremely overrated and people only started to appreciate it after matthewmatosis video or whoever it is
I don't know who that is but I can agree with the rest of that statement.
>>338239509
What did hueg have at the time?
>>338239981
Don't talk shit.
>>338239846
>MGS2 overrated
>people only liked it after some shit I know nothing about
I picked it up because I used to read Gameinformer because it had sweet previews, screenshots, and covers and it was like the only 10 they gave until a few years later and they started giving everything 10s and they started sucking. MGS was an established franchise.
>>338239981
or forced developers to create innovative gameplay without graphics to fall back on
but you're probably right, better hardware does make better games, just look at the plethora of quality titles being released today!
>>338239981
>ps2 weaker than gamecube
>fucking Sony holding us back!!
>wii weaker than ps3
>l-look at this cool waggle game!
>wii u weaker than ps4
>b-but it comes with a tablet!
Hilarious

>>338240336
Nope, lurk more. MGS2 was hated by everyone throughout the internet until some fag came out and started saying it was post-modern. Then everyone loved it again
It's a shit game too. But I dont like those games in general anyway
>>338240207
Halo, JSRF, Oddworld, weird Sega games that never made it to the Dreamcast.
I thought Bloodwake was cool when I was a kid.
>dad goes to gamestop
>dickhead cashier tells him to get an xbox
>tfw dealing with that piece of shit disc drive for the next 2 years
>>338240425
>l-look at this cool waggle game!
I heard that Chad Warden prefers shoving the PS Move controller deep into his ass because the curved design feels more natural in his rectum.
>>338239846
>who play unironically like Gta
I'm not sure what you're saying, but I do respect the context of III's edginess at the time, in the literal, good definition of the word edgy.
It also had some of the first electronic music I ever listened to. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Nuz_w3xLKM
Thank god for my bad parents.
>>338240793
Completely optional accessory vs mandatory control scheme in most games
The move was technically lightyears ahead of the wii waggle dong anyway
>>338240545
Are you going to tell me World War 2 was really fought over some guy named Chiggins next? I shitposted on MGS boards like everyday from 2002 to 2008, never heard of matthewmatosis. I first saw "postmodern" applied to the game after MGS3 came out here:
http://www.deltaheadtranslation.com/MGS2/
It wasn't a widely known thing until after MGS4 came out I reckon.
>Only 3 good games
Wow, you sure showed me.
>>338240445
>calling a downgrade a change in atmosphere
consolecucks are pathetic
>>338241075
I dont care who you are or what your situation is. Most people's perceptions of MGS2 changed around the 2010's . That's when 'mgs2 is a post-modern masterpiece' became a popular thing
>>338241638
your idiotic perception of trends =/= reality
>>338239981
pretty much this. cant beleive people think an underpowered dvd player was the best console of 6th gen
>>338239836
ma nigga
>>338241785
calling me idiotic doesn't make your argument any less wrong than it was before
>>338240423
Can't tell if sarcasm...
Yeah, better hardware does help but if the Devs just choose to focus on graphics or fail to make the gameplay fun, then the game is going to fucking suck.
>PS2 had more quality exclusives in its first two years than PS4 will have in its entire lifespan
What happened?
>>338241785
early 2000s = I dont like it because you play as raiden
2010s = it's post-modern man, you're supposed to be angry that you play as raiden because it's a deconstruction of the nature of marketing
>>338241928
You were saying no one appreciated MGS2 until matthewmatosis or whatever. I posted an article written in 2007 calling the game postmodern. I brought up reviews lavishing the game with perfect scores. What more do you want? I'm calling you an idiot because we're going in circles.
>>338241981
was sarcasm
Here's the most popular game on the PS2
Everyone I knew had it.
>>338242026
people dont buy consoles for exclusives anymore
>>338239509
>all of these games were released Q3-Q4 of 2001
>PS2 was released in 2000
>literally just sequels, with three new IPs and a spinoff
/vr/ was right when they said that 6th gen was the sequel and tie-in generation, moreso than previous ones.
>>338239902
DELETE THIS!
>>338242057
People liked Elder Scrolls before Skyrim. That doesn't change the fact that Skyrim is what made Elder Scrolls popular. I'm talking numbers here, i dont care if you find a couple of articles or whatever
>>338241924
>L.O.L. Lack of Love
Has somebody fucking translated this and the rest of this company's games yet? Fucking japs.
>>338242026
it now takes 200 people 2-4 years to make a game instead of 50 people 1 year to make a game like it did in the ps2 days
i love how people forget the ps2 was the original no gaems system during its 1st year
>>338239509
>it 2 collapsed towers and a war to get this lineup

Either you are jealous of them or have no fucking idea how money works
>>338242334

seriously considering learning to read moon
>>338242219
/vr/ will turn to shit once all the 6th gen consoles be allowed
>>338239981
PS2 was for fucking casuals they even gave you more bullets
>>338242381
Tekken Tag Tournament was cool. It had a fuckton of characters. I picked up Tekken 4 years later then realized the series was shit.
>>338242620
I remember some guy was doing a 'preview' of what /vr/ would be like with 6th gen consoles.

>mfw literally searching 'that kid who wavedashed to school' brings up this thread
>mfw the third image result is my crop
>>338242470
any idea what's going on with pic related? I googled it and saw an "it's almost done!" thread on neogaf but that was 2014.
>>338242219
At least original games that took risks were still being made during that time.
>>338242620
They'll have more shit to actually talk about. I don't see what the big deal is. 6th gen was the last gen where SD video was standard. What harm could it possibly bring to the board?
>>338243124
Yeah! Games like Vice City, FF12, and Snake Eater were all huge risk takers. If anything, 6th gen was the worst time to take risks, as all the risk takers died off due to the birth of the modern AAA industry.
>>338242985
check the 2nd page they made an update in late 2015, theirs still hope. fan translations usually take a long ass time especially with jrpgs
>>338243124
>At least original games that took risks were still being made during that time.
and all those games sold like shit
>>338243240
Why mention Vice City when 3 was the one taking risks?
>>338243340
Okay, that's a scary thought. Still, how likely is it that those fanbases migrate to /vr/?
>>338243405
They still had a fighting chance, even if it was sometimes unfair (no marketing, etc.).

of all of these games, only dark alliance was any good, and that was quickly surpassed by champions of norrath. jak is like a shit ratchet, devil may cry is a shit series but 3 is circlejerked about, not 1. rest are just plain bad. i don't get why people always post this picture.
>>338239568
First post best post
>>338239846
>5 was better than 4
Story wise yes. Gameplay wise is a big fat no, unless you think the pants on head flight modelling plus broken ass AI terrain avoidance is a good thing.
