Sadly with the introduction of its successor, the PlayStation3 and the age of time taking its toll on it, the beloved PlayStation 2 was discontinued after thirteen years of production on January fourth, 2013. To sweeten the deal, even more, Playstation 2 had support for a full 1080i high definition gameplay, while other consoles couldn’t support such high quality of gaming. This was a big step towards the right direction to score more gamers and consumers as the only way anyone could play online was to Xbox’s paid online service known as Xbox live. Which allowed the popular home console to access the internet for online multiplayer games for free. Along with the passage of time, Sony even released a network adapter. The PlayStation 2 dominated the market even after its successor the PlayStation 3 was released. Boasting over three thousand eight hundred and seventy-four titles. It soon got the title of the best-selling video game console of all time shortly after the remodel. With it being sold like hot cakes, Sony refurbished the design to make the slimline models by 2004. It impressed the majority of the populous so much that it sold more than 154 million copies of the console.

This made the consumers go crazy over it as it provided the pinnacle of gaming back in the day. Coming into the competition dominated by Microsoft’s Xbox and Nintendo’s Gamecube, it packed an impressive system RAM of 32 MB and a video RAM of 4 MB with a 64-bit emotion engine as CPU.
