should i buy a ps2?

[xboxmandude]

Lol never owned one and I feel like I missed out on a generation of gaming
My cousins had one and I played a bit on theirs
But I've always wanted one
After I sold my PS 1 many years ago I was going to buy one but never got around to doing that...

Yes I know its a bit outdated now that there's the ps4 and crap...
But man it was an epic console...
I could just buy an x box or a better phone...
But theres just something about a ps2 that makes me want to buy it

Should I get one?
Is it worth it... Even though its old?
Or should I buy a new phone or an x box or something
Lol?
>.<

DBZ BT3 was quite a game, and so was KH2.

Get a gaming laptop, dump games that you buy from amazon or whatever and play on PCSX2 with full HD, antialiasing, and a DualShock 3 plugged in.

^ He's right... it's much more satisfying if you spend it for a gaming laptop or much more powerful desktop and get some PS2 games play it on PCSX2 with graphical additions so you can enjoy it in HD

nah,,, I do not think that play ps2 games on pcsx2 will satisfy you. however in pcsx2 gaming laptop still has obstacles. You know the PS4 and crap has been released, it's a little info about the PS4 could run ps1 and ps2 games and rumored that ps3 also included but not really sure. i gonna ask u to buy ps4 or xbox360 .

You're right, desktops are the best.

If i were you, i would buy a PC gamer!! This way you can emulate PS2 main games and play the current gen PC games!!

But you need to own a PS2 to legally use pcsx2... (because of BIOS files)

PCSX2 is the way to go for the sake of better visuals (let's be honest, the aliasing at the sub 480p resolutions makes most peoples' eyes bleed). Playing the same games in full HD makes it nigh on impossible to go back to real hardware. Intel CPUs are more ideal for demanding emulation due to how they are architecturally and their instruction sets, how they work etc (PCSX2 developers have said this, it's not bias against AMD CPUs).

Intel CPUs are better for pcsx2 because they have much better "per core" performance.

I think there's not a better experience than play on the real console. I have a PS2 and still play it, but I never played PS3 or any modern console else.
