Ooooh! I have something!

EAs total fiscal earnings for the 2008 period:

XBox 360 $589m
PS3 $284m
PS2 $718m

Yes, the sales are better than the current gen consoles. But... you still own a PS2!

Good, keep em coming, remember only post things that prove the PS2 is the best console ever made and the best console there will ever be.

Well, if you consider the number of PS2 games out there and those that are still in development to the fact that the PS2s got a +/- 7 year lead . . . yeah it owns the title of the best ever console made!

PS1 & PS2 were awesome. Sony must have made a absolute killing, not so sure this time round though..

Not at all. In the 2 years PS3 has been on the market it's lost as much as the PS2 made in 7, around $3 billion ...

Some interesting but non relavant news

http://www.psu.com/PS2-becomes-+quot;effectively-an-open-platform+quot;-News--a0005224-p0.php

Speaking to GameDaily at the Casual Connect event in Kiev, Ukraine, Sony Europe's Developer Relations Manager George Bain has revealed that European developers will no longer need content approval to create titles for PlayStation 2.

As a consequence, he said, the PS2 "is effectively an open platform."

Developers can obtain a license for Sony hardware free of charge, but will still have to stump up funds for a development kit. The manufacturer will loan dev kits on occasion, Bain added, and developers at work on smaller, casual projects will have the option of using vastly cheaper debug units.

The move will benefit companies with minimal budgets, he went on, as it will allow them to "create low-development cost titles and release them in their market."

But will low development cost equate to a low quality game? We hope not. As the oldest and most popular console out there, the PS2 has seen more than its fair share of shovelware.

Hmm, sounds like they're trying to answer XNA community games.
