Crashing this plane... with no survivors!
There will never be another console with the diversity and sheer volume of games that the PS2/Xbox/GC had.

What? PS1 is ahead of PS3 and we won't even talk about 4 being close.. Do you even realize where the best Twisted Metals, wipeouts, MGS and Tomb Raiders are? I won't continue on but games were made quicker and just a ton of amazing stuff on ps1. TLOU, Journey are decent games but they aren't the best games on PS3 even.PS1, yeah, PS2 and PS3? No. PS4 doesn't have its own TLOU, Journey, or GOW3. Not yet anyway.

This. Also, in the same vein, the fact that I simply can't buy someone money for their PSN account virtually and have to do it via a physical card is kind of sad and archaic.edit: Though I would say dl-gifting is still one feature I crave.

I have to say, given the amount of incredible games we have seen so far this year alone (Gravity Rush, Nioh and Horizon in a few short weeks), has this generation got the PS1/2 beaten for sheer quality? When you throw in multi platform games too, is it fair to say that this is the greatest PlayStation ever? If not now, God of War and TLOU2 on the way as well as FF7 Remake, along with Days Gone if that turns out to be a great game too, have Sony actually managed to live up to the hype or even surpass what was expected at launch?
Perfect gif
The OS convenience is the best in console history.
As someone who has gamed on both consoles & PC's for a long time it has always been a pain how feature-less and behind consoles have been. And this ultimately affected the games of the previous generations, most noteworthy the PS2 generation were PC online was mature & tech like programmable shaders a thing (hence an opportunity for Xbox to enter with some of these elements).
The PS4 is for me when consoles surpassed PC gaming with Netflix-like effortless access to all the unified service-features I would want. System handles everything in a neat Async fashion On or Off.

PS2 has 58 games with a Metascore of 90 or above.
PS4 has 15.
I see statements like these a lot... They completely ignore indie development.

Guessing this is what you're referring to... :Has anyone got the picture of I think it was 8 games that were all PS2 exclusive and releasing close to each other. I think it had MGS 2, a GTA and a Team Ico game in it. It always perfectly sums up how good the PS2's library was.
Only the PS3 OP 😩
To those replies about less strict review standards a decade and a half ago - I completely agree. Does it offset the metric somewhat that now there is an influx of digital games? Are there more games out for PS4 than the PS2 at this point in its lifespan?
