Happy Birthday Playstation 2, you’ve turned 9 today!
What present would you like?
Did you know that the Playstation 2 was released nine years ago today? The PS2 was released on October 28th, 2000 and has became one of the most popular consoles around – selling trillions of units (okay, exaggerating a little bit).
Did you know?
- One in every three US households own a PS2 system
- 140 million people around the world own a PS2
- The SOCOM franchise has become one of the most played of all time, with over 530 million online hours logged since the debut of SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs in 2002 equaling 60,000 years of online play
- More than 500 million software units have been sold for PS2 in the US
- More than 485 developers have developed for the platform since its launch
- By the end of this fiscal year, nearly 10,000 titles in total will be available for the system
That’s quite an accomplishment for any electrical product, especially when that product is a games console. I still can’t believe nearly 10,000 titles have been released on the system, and quite a few of them being pretty damn good.
