16 photos anyone who grew up playing the PS2 will recognise
AH, THE PLAYSTATION 2 - taking up so many of your teenage hours.
It was all sorts of epic:
1. You’d never seen anything as big as the 64mb memory card
None of your 32mb Playstation 1 memory cards any more.
2. The dual shock was now a slick black – and it was so much better than the old grey one
3. Suddenly, Grand Theft Auto was 3D and it was a whole new world
4. Vice City came next and it was the best game you had ever played
5. Because you could fly loads of different helicopters around the place
6. This screen struck fear into your very soul
And when this popped up, it was panic stations:
7. When they introduced that GAA game on the PS2 and everyone you know thought it was shite
8. You were introduced to the concept of the guitar game for the very first time with the PS2
9. And controllers looked a lot different
All changed.
10. When you had never stepped foot on a ski lift but you were an expert in SSX
11. You could cruise around as The Simpsons characters in Road Rage
12. When it first came out, everyone had a sense of wonder at the fact that it could stand up straight
THE FUTURE.
13. Gran Turismo has never looked so shiny
14. Final Fantasy X was a massive step up
But you could still play VII – because the PS2 was that good.
15. And then San Andreas came along and made Vice City look positively small
16. And finally… this screen when you were playing some TUNES
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.
