Supporting both the audio CD and DVD-Video formats, PlayStation2 offers gamers a wide range of music and video entertainment options. The new system is backwards compatible with the original PlayStation, bridging the gap between the two systems while letting gamers retain their investment in their existing PlayStation software libraries.
CD-Quality Sound
Our games look just like audio CDs, so they ought to sound like one. Hang on -- the same technology that gives your CD player the ability to make the blood rush to your face and get that prickly feeling in your chest? It's at work here as well, making us the only gaming console that can offer CD-quality sound.
Full Motion Video
We're also one of the first to offer full motion video (FMV to the gaming elite), giving you a full, immersive experience. And it looks dang good, too.
Unbelievable Storage
Most cartridges max out at about 96 MB. of information. Compare this to the 650 MB. of maximum storage on a CD. In other words, more than six times the storage. Not into numbers? Get this: About five entire Final Fantasy VI games (released on cartridge) can fit into the opening video of the Final Fantasy VII CD for PlayStation. |
