I Loved Playing The WWE Games On PS2 Back when my WWE fandom started during the mid 2000's

The PS2 is my 1st playstation console I got back when I was a kid and I absolutely love it. I wish we had a library of lots of PS2 games that we could play On the PS5 but not for streaming

I have a PS2 library, 2000+ working games on my PC.
loved my PS2 slim back in the day 💯
I had a PS2 for most of my life, It took me until around 2017 that I realized you could spin the logo around for if you wanted to stand it up vertically.
The PS2 is the last of the best era of console gaming. It was the last console without games featuring microtransactions, and it was the last where the games had to come out finished due to connectivity limitations. Ever since, most AAA games come out buggy & unfinished, and rely on massive patches to fix.

Also because online wasn't such a huge focus many games had local multiplayer
I just dust off my ps2 haven’t touched it in 20 years still works fine
I remember coming home from school in 2004. I was a kid around 6-7 years old. My dad gave me an offer. He said:'' Son, if you clean the backgarden and it looks good. I have a gift for you.'' I went to work in the garden and i finished up 1½ hours later. My dad came with a Playstation 2 Fifa 2004 and GTA Vice City and also I got a gameboy advance because I defended a girl in class from a classmate and my father said:'' if you ever beat someone up for good I give you an gameboy.'' Thanks dad. :)
What sold me to get a PS2 was Final Fantasy X and later on Kingdom Hearts. I also had the Dance Dance Revolution games on it. Speaking of PSP games on PS2, OutRun 2006 also required you to have both versions (PS2 and PSP) to unlock the extra content
Love ps2. So much great memories grew up with playstation 2 days.
Yeah the ps2 was an absolute fucking juggernaut of a console. Still my favourite console of all time and had one of the best libraries imo and probably will always be my favourite.
When the PS2 was released in 2000, it sold for £299, which was the same price as the original PlayStation when it was released in 1995. Fortunately, the redesigned PS2 Slimline that was released in 2004 sold at a more affordable £99
2000's were a revolutionary decade. We were amazed from the experience that this console has bought us. We were not ready for thag.
I remember the fall of 2002. GTA: Vice City came out on the PS2. The game took place in 1986. 16 years ago felt SO long ago back then. (I was only 14 when it came out). And that world looked SO different. That’s like the game being set in 2007. That doesn’t feel so long ago. Has the world, popular culture really changed that much at all???
This is the first time in a WHILE that one these “things you didn’t know about” videos actually blew my mind on a couple things 🤣🔥
#1 - Saddam and Satan used to play SOCOM together on it
There is a reason it was "the cheapest DVD player" back in 2000. It was a shitty DVD player. If you used it to watch a lot of movies it would burn out the eye that reads the discs. My first PS 2 I ever had died inside of a year because of this. It stopped reading all discs. Dvds, games, and cds it would not play a single thing.

Mine never had this issue
my ps2 memories was playing kingdom hearts, tekken, and other games with my family
I enjoyed that era of Madden games. They may not get the love as other games but such a classic era for Madden too
The PS2 didn't sell because of the dvd player. It wasn't promoted and most of us didn't know about the dvd function until we bought it.
OHHHH LORDY LORD!!! I literally forgot about The Netflix Streaming Disc!!! Good times!! 😢😢😢
I've had most consoles and handheleds games for the better part of 20 years. From the gameboy color to the Ps5. I can say the PS2 changed how i viewed gaming and how i played moving forward.
The fact that you referred to PS2 as a 'retro' console made me feel so old.... 😂

When Silent Hill 2 came out thats when I finally gave in and got a Ps2 , at the time there were a memory card shortage so for more than a week I probably played it over bout 10 times before subduing a memory card. It felt amazing when I could finally save.
I recently purchased ps2 couple weeks ago at retro video game store cuz I wanna play more ps2 games that I haven't played so I still play slot more
I still play my PS2. So many great games. Its easy to mod the fat PS2 also using FMCB Free Mcboot.
@ 4:04..dove head first into the wall!! Lol
4:31 this is my favorite games on _PlayStation 2_
Great video, still enjoying my PS2 slim SCPH-70004, with aftermarket wireless controller and a remote controller to turn on and off. It has a lot of great and fun games, currently having 90 games and collecting them further. It is a well made machine.
I still have my PS2 slim. And it works perfect! It has the Matrix chip. I love it.
So glad I got to experience the ps2 in its prime back when we used to have finished games
I bought two PS2 consoles at launch, primarily for the DVD function. A classmate begged me to sell him one a week later. 😁
Despite what anyone says, 480p is possible via RGB SCART not just Component or VGA, it's a pain in the ass to set this up but you need something that supports Sync-on-Green like the OSSC and some PVMs when you turn off the external sync, make sure you use a high quality cable whether it's RGB SCART, S-Video or Component
My favorite console of all time. My favorite and one of the earliest memories is crashing so much in gta the day i got it. Also twisted metal black scaring me so much with those cutscenes.
I knew half of these
My favorite PS2 memory? When I was a little kid, my big brother stole the PS2 and pond it for drug money lol that was hilarious.

I love PS2 it has my favourite fighting games
wow. I never knew about the ps2 TV. I would have loved that.
the PS2 will always be my favorite console of all time call me old but nothing has come close to the same feeling of fun the PS2 did (in a console way)
"THE" Best console ever released....end of story 🤜❤️🤛
I loved the dbz tenkaichi series on ps2 still the master to this day!!!
PlayStation 2 is still fun even to this day.
I loved SOCOM it was the first game that I had that came w/ a headset. The online was a little weak but a sign of the times. Overall it was great.
I love the PS2 Resident Evil Dead Aim one of my favorites
I used to love flipping that little logo around 😂
I still have a ps2 system I just got a new one because for some reason mine wasn't working on ps1 game,s anymore but once I get it up and running I'm going to enjoy it but I did notice one thing when it come,s to stress it,s a double sword it add,s stress and it helps take it away also💛
Love PS2 great times had even better times in the 80s and 90s 00s were good though
Don't know what you're talking about with DVD players costing between $705 I bought mine back in 99 for about 150 and it was a Sony
Playstation original mascot was Polygon Man
People are going crazy over the Switch these days but the PS2 blows the Switch out of the water with the amount of must buy games the PS2 had.
Recently got a ps2 slim for 65$ from this pkace that sale old things, there were alot of gems for sale too loke saints row 1&2, crackdown 🔥🔥 I still play the 360 and ps2 timeless classics
Them console sales don’t include reselling dose it. I can only imagine how big the number would be if they counted towards it.
In my opinion code veronica deserves the remake treatment next but like jj said, re 4 also didn't need a remake but the now that we have the remake it's amazing so capcom could definitely benefit from a re 5 remake
was too young to get a ps1. so we got the ps2. played alot of ps1 games for the first time ever on it.
10:20-10:21 My Dad's 66th birthday. Also, that was early 2013, so still within the early 2010s range.
I once kept my Ps2 on for 2 months straight with Gta Sa on 24/7. Didn't have a memory card. Was so close to beating the game when one day I failed a mission and yanked back on the controller. Back when chordless was a luxury my teenage self could not afford. Cause and effect the controllers chord snatched the console off my dresser running my 2 months of no save after school gaming. Talk about devastated.

I truly believe the ps2 was the golden age of gaming. Change my mind.
I have Haunting Ground, I had no idea it was rare. Nice.
My kingdom hearts 1 and 2 startup towers were probably my biggest
I knew a good chunk of these. Best brand out forreal.
I loved playing okami back in the day.

I bought maybe 14 PS2's on dodgy credit cards ..those were the days
The dragon ball games for this console were on point
On the topic of classic games anyone remember the playstation 1 version of harry potter and the chamber of secrets(in my opinion the best version) I'm still hoping that gets a remastered version imagine how the ps5 haptic feedback would work
Sony is the Apple of video games
I Love Ace Combat latest games on PlayStation 2 their the best sellings ever Ace Combat 04 Shattered Skies and Ace combat 5 the unsung war Ace combat zero the belkan war a Best Ps2 Exclusive Games
BRUH IS THAT JAMES BARNEYS BROTHER FROM HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER ON THE RELEASE DATE ONE
I still have PS2 in 2023.....I'm not lying 😐🤞
i broke up with my ps2, now its my xbox
add (probably) to the title lol
Funny enough , we had a lg dvd player in like 2006 or something
the ps3 plays ps1 games too, just not ps2 games, unless you have the first BC models.
I honestly think the PS2 era was the peak of gaming, in terms of sheer popularity and just how many top notch games were released for the console
5:45 this is the moment Sony PLAYSTATION MADE A HUGE MISTAKE. Not allowing this to even future consoles. Sadly xbox has it with the series x being able to play some ORIGINAL XBOX titles (some but something is something)
PS2 the GOAT iykyk
The logo spins on the slim as well, discovered that like a year ago

Please 🥺 make one for PS3.
Wait, are you seriously trying to play the fact that the PS2 could play DVDs as a "fact you didn't know"? It was advertised on the box. How would anyone not know? Even if you were illiterate, you probably heard someone say "it can play DVDs". Even a mildly curious child could've figured out "hey, I wonder if it can play this circular disk?".
You mean 25 of the most commonly known facts?
