A new peripheral looking suspiciously like a VR headset has been announced for the Playstation2, first details + screens inside…
Sony today announced details of a new peripheral for the Playstation2. The PUD-J5A resembles a virtual reality visor, allowing players to look around within games made specifically for the product. The device will go on sale from September 26th and will cost 59,800 Yen (~£320), and can only be purchased from the official Playstation site. <br /> <br /> Sony used a flight simulator currently in development at Taito along with help from Lockheed Martin to show the peripheral in action. Energy Airforce, due to go on sale alongside the peripheral, allows players to actually move their view from the cockpit via their head movements monitored by the device. <br /> <br /> Sony are presently sending the device out to other developers in the hope of drumming up more support, which they’ll have to do if they don’t want this becoming yet another expensive add-on heading toward the rubbish heap. The visor is set to make its first public appearance at the forthcoming Tokyo Game Show, weher we’ll bring you further details. <br />

it's time when people stop buying it imo.
they'd be stupid to automatically presume if they stopped selling ps2s they'd get more people buying ps3s.
nobody who wants a ps3 will go into a shop and buy a ps2 instead just cuz it's cheaper or something.

Time to pull the plug and focus on the PS3 more. More people would buy PS3s if a PS2 was not available.
It is time, Sony.

ps3' world wide sales arnt 38 million its more close to 33 million the 360 is at 37 million not 39 but who gives a crap the 360 has reached its peak this time next year microsoft will pull the plug on the 360 when they release details of there next console only no one will buy it apart from fanboys and mirosoft's failed IT students
and in the comment below yours i dont see any thing about the 360 over taking the ps3 or how long it will last besides thats its nearly 2 years ago since that was posted, you seriously need to loose that fanboy image as its all over you. no one who actually plays games gives a crap weather it sells more than 360, sonys not going to pull the plug on ps3 so why you so obsesed about sales or adding stupid comments like inferiour pc conversions as there on ps3 aswell (is far cry in inferiour pc game or crysis ect) no thought not.
go back to gaming and let sony worry about console sales well actually its shareholders unless your gonna be a crybaby and post a stupid reply that only a fanboy would care about.

lol anon. ps3 worldwide sales = 38million. 360 worldwide sales = 39 million. the 360 is a year older. and after 2 years of paying for live is more expensive than ps3. the ps3 2010 exclusive list is absolutely killer and blu-rays have really taken off! you're in a dreamworld if you think the 360 will last over the next 2 years, let alone trounce the ps3 like you're suggesting! but enjoy your smaller more inferior pc ports this year, wont you?! xx

This is their peak because of MGS4, Halo 3 did the same thing but in much larger numbers. 360 has a sick holiday lineup and they will cut the price by a hundred bucks. Then theres the new Xbox Live with Netflix and possibly a FREE Xbox Live by then. Resistance isn't enough to stop it.
