Sales of PlayStation 2 software as of December 2010 stood at 1,527,000,000 units. This is spread across 10,828 releases.

While having a PS2 is certainly getting cheaper – with the PS2 games being cheaper than PS3 games, I don’t find myself going back to the PS2 at all. Once I saw how HD a game can be, I couldn’t go back to the PS2 days. xD. Waiting for news of a PS4, if any :3.

It was a pretty interesting video summarizing the history of PlayStation. Back then when it first launched in 1995 (1994 if you are really nitpicky), I was just a kid and I was amazed at how great the games looked. It was the next big thing after the Nintendo 64 and literally almost every family in my neighborhood owned the console.

Just like McDonald’s, the Generation Y kids pretty much grew up with PlayStation and other brands alike and you can tell they are growing together with us. Back then, a lot of us recognize the PlayStation 1 as an entertainment system for kids and now look at the PlayStation 3. It is more or less marketed towards teenagers and above and you can see it very clearly in advertisements and also the sleek design of the console itself.

Well, the PS3 is not going away anytime soon so it will be a while before we see the next big thing. For those of you who are interested, you can view the previous 15th anniversary video below.

Just hope that they will bring more Gundam games to the PS3 platform, and have online play with friends. It would be so cool. Just imagine having a big war and fighting with your comrades on the battlefield!

The opening was nice, using the song – Ash like Snow for the introduction to the game, but sadly they could have used the gundams in the game to feature their introduction. All they did was to use scenes from the anime. Wait, are we playing the game or watching the anime? -_-

Graphics-wise, it beats Omni vs Zaft II Plus. In the beginning, you get to play as the meisters on their mission. I chose Lockon as my first meister =).

Throne Meisters are in too, so is Graham’s and a couple of others. I remembered fighting Patrick. I think I unlocked his OverFlag – chance to let him be thrased =X.

The controls are retarded. I have never played a game which doesn’t use much of L1/2 buttons. Using Lockon – the enemies just die from a single blast of my power XD. Exia was a little different. Being a close range type, I had to boost Exia towards the enemy for a close range attack to finish them off. Exia has his gun too, but it’s nothing compared to Lockon’s. Had to use many shots just to make them die.

And why do we have a Naruto look-alike gameplay? I remember “spamming” the same button for attacks. And whoa, we have this for Gundam 00 game too. Initially it was quite fun and interesting. After awhile I got really bored of the “special” attacks.

GN Arms is also in the game – but it was a total failure.

I might give the game another go, maybe it was me who didn’t know how to use the controls properly – I do prefer Omni vs Zaft II plus more. If only they did Gundam 00 with a gameplay like OvZIIP(Omni vs Zaft II Plus), I’ll definitely go high!

The trailer looks nice. =/
