Console gaming isn't like pc gaming, games are tethered to a particular console unless they're big enough to get "remasters".
So the PS2 library is exclusive to that particular console, if you want to enjoy those games you need to keep one around.
Some people will point to emulation but that is never as good as playing natively on the original console, so they will always serve a purpose. -
2019-10-07 at 9:20 AM UTCYou can also mod the PS2 to run the games off a USB stick or external HDD
I'm not sure what emulation is like on PS2 but I imagine it can run anything up to the N64 -
2019-10-07 at 9:23 AM UTCYou can't run games off of a USB drive or USB connected hard drive, the PS2 USB port is really outdated so the read speed is too slow to run the games properly without hiccups.
The only non disc method that works properly is if you have an older PS2 that supports the hard drive addon and happen to have one of the PS2 hard drives (the ones that were required if you wanted to play games like Final Fantasy XI).
I haven't been able to get games to run off ethernet but freemcboot does allow for it. -
2019-10-07 at 9:27 AM UTCHack the PS3 then

2019-10-07 at 9:29 AM UTCPS3 doesn't have any games

2019-10-07 at 9:37 AM UTCit does when you bypass the security and cram 7 generations of games on an HDD
-
2019-10-07 at 9:38 AM UTCAlso MGS4

2019-10-07 at 9:41 AM UTCif I was going to emulate previous consoles I would just do it on a PC

2019-10-08 at 3:51 AM UTCA console is just a shitty pc with specific hardware requirements
-
2019-10-08 at 3:55 AM UTCI'd buy a console if they could run linux.
Otherwise I can't justify paying money to have in my home something I wouldn't even really control. -

Yea no shit it's the newest line and only you make iPhones, what an insultingly worthless statement.
new iphones come out yearly. Consoles are generally a huge jump in technology from the previous generation. Poor comparison. -

Uh no, how is that relevant? They're not, no more a technological jump than iPhones spaced the same time apart. Its retarded either way, of course your newest shit is your best shit, it should be, that's like a fucking prerequisite. -
