Is the PS2 old enough yet to be considered retro? That would be my pick, if so.

I dont want to accept it however I'm pretty sure that it is considered retro. I would also pick ps2 not only does it have an massive library of games but there are alot of insanely good ones

[–] iheartneopets@lemm.ee 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, some of my favorites of all time are PS2 games. Plus, not only does it have a huge library on its own, but it can play PS1 games as well

[–] LifeOfChance@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Exactly! Honestly the birth of some series starting on PS2 and some were skyrocketed because of the PS2. It's truly perfect system. The fact that it's one of the few systems you could buy and have endless hours on it spread across multiple games is still amazing.

PS3 is considered retro now

Hey! This was a nice civil chat you didn't need that hostility!

Joking aside sadly I read that as well and it's mind blowing at first.
