For this section's introductory paragraph I'm going to have to quote PSM:
"At this year's Electronic Enternainment Expo ("E3", ya dig?), Sony fought back against new consoles from Nintendo and Microsoft with one of the most explosive lineup of games this industry has ever seen. Metal Gear Solid 2, Final Fantasy X, Devil May Cry, Silent Hill 2, Jak and Daxter, Tony Hawk 3, Gran Turismo 3--any one of these titles alone is reason enough to own a PS2. And that list doesn't even include incredible new titles like Maximo: Ghosts To Glory, Ace Combat 4, Soul Reaver 2, Spider-Man: The Movie and so on. Our overall impression of this year's show is that there are more quality games coming out now than ever before, and once you've read over the next 12 pages, we think you'll agree. We're just starting to see what the PS2 can really do. Can you imagine what we'll see at next year's show? Well, until then, enjoy this feature and start saving your lunch money--you're gonna need it!"--PSM: Playstation and PS2 magazine. Well, there's the scoop!
