My dad camped out at Best Buy and got me a PS2 on release day. I didn't know he did it until a month later when I got it for my birthday, along with a newspaper article with him in the picture as the second person in line. He picked up SSX with it and I remember that game just blowing my mind! Gives me the feels to this day.

I'd say the fact that it was a cheap DVD player and backward compatible with PSOne games help sell a lot of PS2s at first. I know that's why I bought one. So many great games helped seal the deal.

My original PS2 launch system is still up and running. Impressed with the system from day 1.

This is easily my favorite console ever. So many great games for dirt cheap.

The PS2 is the very best PlayStation in my opinion. It just feels so fresh even to this day. I had PS4 but didn't like it so I am back to playing PS2.

So glad to see you guys back in action. My daughters love to watch with me, as well. I've heard "Daddy, put on Game Sack!" more than I care to admit.

The undisputed king of video game consoles.

The one thing I love about the ps2 is the sheer variety of its library. The original PlayStation and the PS2 also features some highly experimental games that we would likely never see today. Titles such as Parappa tha Rapper, Point Blank, Mr. Mosquito, Katamari Damacy and plenty, plenty more were unlike anything else seen before or since in gaming. Obviously big budget games

I remember it was my hub for RPGs, along with some fighting and action games. Shadow of Destiny, Xenosaga, Grandia, .hack, Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts, Inuyasha, Lupin the 3rd, Monster Rancher, Monster Hunter, Suikoden, Klonoa 2, Wild Arms, Buldar's Gate, Dark Cloud, Marvel vs Capcom, Rule of Rose... I could go on and on and on. I still have all those games and more. PS2 is still my most valued console to date.
