I guess i'm officially outdated in videogames...Anyway, would it be that hard to do a PS2 version? Even if it was as awful as Rock Band's version, i'd get it anyway...just to have more songs to play...

To be honest, your console is eight years old now!
And the PS2 has a completely different architecture to the next gen systems, mainly being single threaded.
HMX and NS already have put the work in converting their engines for the PS2 so it's not as much work for each game for them. But I wouldn't blame Konami for leaving it out. _________________

Not only that, but the current generation has been out for 3 years already. _________________

This is the reason that NVS and HMX keep releasing their games for the PS2, people still have the console. But in all honesty, I don't see why someone wouldn't get a 360 or PS3 (Or Wii, if you just like to play casual games) if they still only have a PS2. The console isn't receiving as much games/features as the other systems. People still complain, and it doesn't make sense. _________________

It's all sony's fault. Damn they make good systems... <_<
Trust me, love your ps2, buy a ps3.
Once we stop progressing, that's when we're old, behind the curve... balding <_< _________________

Or they could make consoles that people can actually afford.... Also most consoles dont last long enough (only 5 years on non-sony systems) to get your moneys worth on it.
Also: As technology used in consoles gets more advanced, price will keep getting higher and higher _________________

You must also keep in mind that people like me with jobs have the only income in the house. And I'm 15. So therefore people like me down in the poverty level can't really afford this and have to stick with the old systems (Hell, I got my PS2 the day they came out and it still works). |

That's called "inflation."
Yes, the PS2 is a great system, but it's eight freaking years old. Stop expecting people to make new games series for it. You're still getting RB and GH because GH started on PS2, so they have a huge following on that console. You won't get RR because Konami doesn't have any similar games already on PS2 that they have a huge following they have to please.

So you got a US$300 console at age 7? I wish I had your job at that age! (Point: Somebody bought that for you as a gift, and the same could in theory happen for the newer consoles.) _________________

well we all know that the PS2 has lived long and that it still is sorta kinda living right now but we also have to realize that the new generation is here...
Were there people with a PS1 when the PS2 came out like 3 years after..
i think so...
i dont know if they were still making games for the PS1 but people still had it...
just like i still have a Nintendo 64...
but yea the PS2 is still living and i think they should still make games for it... but then again i would like a 360 or PS3.. but i'm in poverty right now and i cant afford either one so it looks like i'm a little fucked...
but also i wanna try and stop buying video games simply because i'm 15 turning 16 in January and i think i need to mature up a little
and TheGrudge93, sorry bout your dad.... i would be so sad if that was my situation..
So i hope you can come through with that... _________________

It was bound to happen eventually. The PS2 is a great console, but there are now better consoles out which more people are starting to get. _________________
