"While the peripheral is interesting, there cannot be too many people still wanting to play PS2 games out there, especially as the console reaches the very end stages of its life."
That is one of the dumbest editorial comments I have ever heard. How many people are out there "buying" NES downloads for their Wii? I still play NES, SNES and Genesis Roms. I also have an Atari 2600 that I play too. Just because a game is out dated doesn't mean it isn't played.

I dunno I loath poor implementation in games, quality game play should be the center of gaming but its not its still flash and spectacle forget balance or polish,ect. THus my hate for it stems from gaming becoming film. Hates it we do wew do....*shuffle shuffle* mmeecchhanniiccsss......*shuffle shuffle*

They polled new gamers people who will buy whatever branded product twice, the same kind that watch crappy film 2 or 10 times.... *shudders*

Apart from that getting many amount to a form of mini-game in themselves.
Its a lot easier being righteous than right.
