ThatвЂ™s the funny thing, too, in that, save for a very few games, mostly everything for the Playstation 2 can be enjoyed without the need for an online connection, as relatively few games for the Playstation 2 were even online enabled. With things going crazy all those years ago, at least I had it and a nice stash of wonderful games to enjoy. Gaming has always been a way to relax and enjoy myself, and I would of course consider it my primary hobby. Hell, the Playstation 2 got me through one of the roughest times in my life in the mid 2000вЂ™s. I did play a bit online at a friends, and I enjoyed what I could of it, but overall the PS2 was still a sit at home, with friends, and play a game type of system.

By the time I even thought about doing such in later years, just about everything I would have wanted to play was shut down, as by the 2010вЂ™s everyone was well into gaming on the already half-decade old PS3 and 360вЂ™s consoles. While my Playstation 2 does have a network adapter (and a hard disk from a friends re-purchase of Final Fantasy XI) I never did play any games online. Final Fantasy XI was the last game with online support on the Playstation 2, and with the closure of itвЂ™s servers, and the end of sales of the Playstation 2 around 2012, means that it is as dead a system, from a primary support and service point of view, as any of the classic consoles we know and love.

This, basically, marked the true death of the console, a console that many people regard as one of the best in the history of gaming. For the 360, it was just one of many games on the console to, after a long enough time, have its servers shut down, but for the Playstation 2, this was the last game on the console to still have online support. Final Fantasy XI, the first MMORPG in the nearly 3 decades old Final Fantasy series had its console servers for the Playstation 2 and the Xbox 360 shut down on that day. March 31st, 2016 marked the end of an era of gaming.
