Sell Ps2 for Ps3

Should you sell your ps2 to buy a ps3

 

did you sell your ps1 to buy a ps2??

i know i didnt, but i havent used it since!

depends on whether you will need a bit of cash to buy the ps3

i wont be selling my ps2 though

 

same

 

k how long do u have to be on this thing to not be a newbie

 

it should be until you have some useful knowledge to share, but in reality it's something like 25 or 50 posts. do a search, there's a hundred threads with this exact same question and the accommodating answer.

 

k

 

i didnt have a ps1 btw i had a n64

 

I will not sell my PS2 until there are some mods available for the PS3 to allow me to play my PS2 and PS1 backups. I hope that will be immediately, but I am sure it will take time to tell which mods work and are the best.

 

thanks for all your info but i think im going to sell my ps2 due to the fact that you can play ps2 games on the ps3 anyway.

 

check out my doom movie forum even tho nobody has replied to it lol
p.s. its under audio for some reason

 

I wouldnt sell my Ps2, I would just buy a PS3 and keep the PS2. If you sell your PS2 your probably not gonna get much for it anyway. I bought a Gamecube and gave that thing away then bought a PS2.

 

I agree with most of you I am going to keep my PS2 also and get the PS3.I have a decent collection for PS2.When the PS3 comes out it won't have a big selection until a couple months pass an so forth.You would also lose alot of money if you sold it,as mentioned because it would be an outdated system.I also like to play with my backups instead of my originals.

 

There is no need to have ps2 when you have ps3. Of course for those who play only "backups" (seriously, no one plays backups, it's just plain piracy) ps2 might be a keeper for a while.

 

if there's more than one kid between the ages of 5 and 15 (and often times 5 and 75) in a household, you could always use the system, for obvioius reasons

 

Arcanix why do you think backups are considered piracy.If you own the original you are allowed to keep your investment.I like to keep what I have,if a backup messes up who cares I can replace it easily.If the originals get messed up,well that is different it would be hard to keep replacing that.If what you said was true then no information on backing up games would be allowed on here.Not everyone is pirating games like you mention.Another reason I am going to keep my PS2 is to learn how to program for it later on.It is suppose to be harder than PS3 from what I am hearing.If you learn how to program for PS2,then PS3 shouldn't be as hard.

 

Yeah,okay............

 

I'll never get rid of my modded PS2!!!!!

 

i could never see myself parting with my PS2...after all the time and energy i've put into it, shaping it to my will, adapting and modding it, making it a truly unique creation that i love! just look at my extensive list of modifications:

-removal of the drive cover plate


oh...yeah...umm... XD

 

L-Burna, you wanna program on consoles? Do what I'm planning on doing sometime this summer. See if you can grab ahold of a development kit for the PSP or the GBA (most likely not).

Anyways, the PSP has an amazingly development kit. It's a full IDE, with an emulator for the games you make, and even a debugger. It's friggin amazing.

So, yeah, we should look up our hookups, see if someone can get us something

:End illegal discussion here:

 

Don't sell until you know if the PS3 can play Ps2 backups. If it doesn't you'll need your Ps2
