The Playstation 2 is now established as the most successful console of all time. Although there is now competition from both Xbox & Gamecube the Playstation 2 remains strong. |
| The huge range of quality software, varied accessories & strong publisher support mean this console will remain a lead contender for some time to come. | | At the heart of the elegantly designed Playstation 2 is a 128bit central processor, dubbed the `Emotion engine'. Working alongside a custom graphics chip and two extra vector calculation processors, it all adds up to a machine powerful enough to generate real-time graphics of an unprecedented standard. | | Finally human characters look believable, game environments complex, lush and organic. The machine also features equally impressive sound support, while the extensive onboard memory further opens up the possibilities for games developers. And in keeping with the commitment to next-generation gaming, the system has DVD playback and will even provide modem connection at a later date. | | Really, though, it's the games and the graphics that make the Playstation 2 a must-have. |
