Even though Sega Dreamcast started 128-bit generation before them, the PS2 was closely behind them and even had better hardware capability.
They took advantage of the momentum from the first PlayStation, which successfully captured the adult game market. The console’s extraordinary success can be attributed to certain factors. Their longevity was amazing, considering the fact that the first set of units came out early 2000 and they produced the last set about a decade after in 2012.
They sold approximately 155 million units across the globe. It won’t be far-fetched to say that of all the consoles in the history of video games, Sony’s PlayStation 2, known as PS2 has recorded the most success. PlayStation 2 is one of the most famous video game consoles in the world.
