The PS2's global conquest – Volume 2 of the most comprehensive console work ever published.
Building on the foundations laid in Volume 1, the second instalment of the PlayStation 2 Anthology Tetralogy covers one of the most exciting chapters in console history: the worldwide rollout of the PlayStation 2 and its battle against formidable competition.
What Volume 2 contains
The history chapter picks up where Volume 1 left off – from the launch in Japan, the United States and Europe to the PS2's positioning against the Xbox and GameCube. Particular attention is paid to the impact of the built-in DVD player as a key selling point, and to the provocative advertising campaigns directed by David Lynch.
The hardware chapter shifts focus to the PS2's graphics architecture, explaining how the console achieved such visually impressive results. Rounding out the non-game content are a comprehensive look at rare and collector's editions, official and third-party accessories, and the second instalment of unreleased projects.
The bulk of the book is made up of in-depth reviews of all officially released PS2 games worldwide from H to R – picking up seamlessly from Volume 1.
