The Playstation2 is getting some pretty lackluster press lately, in fact this MSNBC article is downright negative. (Thanks Jason Ellis). The shortages of the machine certainly hasnt helped things, but looking at the titles out there how many great games out there justify the cost of the machine?
Not surprisingly, many of the pioneering PS2 titles are flopping. In fact PS1 is still the hotter machine among gamers. [...] Namco has seen its share price tumble 60 percent since March and recently announced that it expects to report its first-ever yearly loss ($19 million) since going public in 1988.
I'm just gonna wait for Metal Gear Solid 2.
