Amazon Customers Vote PS2 Best Console of All Time

Amazon customers have voted the PlayStation 2 as the best console of all time. The Polling took place from August 18 to October 5. The PS2 beat the Wii U in the first round, the PS3 in the second round, the Nintendo 64 in the semifinals and the PSOne in the finals.

The PlayStation 4 lost to the PSOne in the second round. However, it did receive more votes than all Sega consoles combined. The PC was just nine votes shy of making it into the knock-out stages. The Atari 2600 was the oldest console to make it to the knock-out round.

The PlayStation 2 is also the bestselling console of all time with 157.68 million units sold during its lifetime. That is ahead of the DS and original Game Boy, which sold 154.88 million and 118.69 million units, respectively. The PSOne is the second bestselling console with 104.25 million units sold.

SNES is right behind it though.

Its not about the consoles directly, but rather what was on them.

Remembering Medal Of Honor: The Forgotten Master Of WW2 Games

Ibrahim from eXputer: "The Medal of Honor franchise was once the crown jewel of FPS war games, later defeated by the tides of time and poor development."

They tried to turn it into Call of Duty and it killed it off. They should reboot it and go back to it's roots. But they'd ruin it with online-only/multiplayer style bullshit so why bother? I have very fond memories of these games, but this series can stay dead as far as I'm concerned.

Was literally just thinking of this game the other week with the secret nut cracker mission and the shooting Bismarck dog lmao. Loved these games as a kid

I wish they’d remake warfighter

Strictly for the campaign

I have fond memories of playing the Medal of Honor Breakthrough MP Demo. It had two maps and custom servers. Living on campus, I had it downloaded on one of the PC Lab servers so I could access it on any computer at the university. Joined a clan and made friends that I still keep in touch with today.

It's not the ideal situation but Sony does offer them on ps plus. I to would just like a big ass compilation on doscto though

Insomniac roadmap leaked a while ago and they are making another, they’re doing the best they can and these games, especially the last two, are master pieces
