End of an era: the symbol of a generation raised level of PlayStation 2 games

Early in 2013, Sony stopped making the PlayStation 2, whose production had been halted in Japan, and spelled the end of an era: after nearly 13 years on active duty, the console 'highlander' leaves the scene.

The black monolith leaves a legacy of records, numbers and superlatives memorable classics. It is the best selling console of all time, with at least 154 million units sold. Today, only the portable Nintendo DS can surpass the mark - currently at 152 million.
  There was no revolutionary feature in the second game from Sony. The 3D graphics have come in the previous generation and the analog stick, with the Nintendo 64. The features were placed online only after Microsoft launched the Xbox Live network.

Still, the PlayStation 2 caused a profound impact on the industry. The key to his success was having left at the right time and bring a DVD player. With a hardware well above the Dreamcast, buried any possibility of success of the Sega console. And came out a year before the Xbox and GameCube rivals without losing out heavily in technology.
The DVD had a double function: make the PlayStation 2 run movies - at $ 299, was one of the cheapest DVD players on the market - and give plenty of space to fill with content. Thus, "God of War" may have all those extras, and "Gran Turismo 4", hundreds of cars.

Among all the triumphs of the PlayStation 2, perhaps the most important is the almost exclusive trilogy of "Grand Theft Auto III," which is among the five best-selling games on the platform. With these and other treasures, the library gaming console is considered one of the best of all time
