The first console I ever bought with my own money and on my 16th birthday.
Came bundled with MGS2 and GTA 3 and I also copped the matrix which was my first ever DVD

I remember playing GTA 3 all day and in the evening, after a shower and eating, watched the matrix. After that I played some more GTA till about 1 am before going to sleep. best birthday ever

Xbox was easily better, for starters the graphical differences was greater than the gap between the xb1 and xb1x. Max Payne was amazing on xbox, online gaming via broadband built in (ps2 didn't launch with online, didn't come till they bundled final fantasy online with the adapter.

Splinter cell 2 and 3 online was some of the best online experiences I've had till this day. No game that i know of is doing similar. Only thing coming close (but distant 2nd) is rainbow six.

Rainbow 6 black flag

Return to castle wolfenstein birthed call of duty's "style" of online multiplayer. COD3 for instance was a poor man's wolfenstein imo.

Halo 1/2

Crimson skies

I could go on but i literally have shyt to do...

They were, but we don't wish birthdays to electronics. That's not a thing. Only console with worthy release dates are dreamcast because it was 9/9/99 and xbox 360 because it released on my mom's birthday

My favorite system of all time is probably the snes. I don't know it's birthday, i just remember getting one in October.

To stay on topic, i worked at what later would turn into a gamestop when the ps2 launched. My launch system couldn't read dvds only cds. Tekken tag used dvd, i got home, went to a neighbor's house where we was like 8 deep, hyped, disc read error out the box. The homies laughed at my misfortune that's my 20yrs ago memory

I forgot Tekken was a launch game. Iirc Onimusha was the first game that really felt to me like some next gen shyt to me, or maybe Dynasty Warriors 2 with how much shyt would be on the screen at once.

I'll never forget mine stopped reading blue discs (cds ig) when i had just rented The Thing . Besides that, PS2 was the GOAT

Wouldn't it be weird if you participated in a thread like this but haven't told people in your real life that you appreciate them?
