[@tcscomment]

the PS2 was a nightmare for devs especially at the start, because Sony thought "devs can just use our vector units to do tons of fast data transfers via DMA so they don't need much memory and we can flex the power of our hardware lol" too bad they never said this to devs and they had to eventually figure that out on their own

[@tisaconundrum]

I guess RenderWare came into the picture to try and save they day with all the BS that is messing with Vector Units and CPU management. --- RenderWare was one of the most widely used game engines during the PS2 era. Originally developed by Criterion Software, RenderWare was a cross-platform graphics engine that provided a higher-level abstraction over the hardware, making it easier for developers to create games without needing to dive into the low-level complexities of the PS2. RenderWare handled many of the tasks that would otherwise require developers to manually program the VUs, such as 3D rendering, physics, and animation. It became popular for its ease of use and was employed in many high-profile games, including the Grand Theft Auto series, Burnout, and Tony Hawk's Pro Skater.

[@MichaelPohoreski]

I shipped a couple of PS2 games. The VU0 and VU1 weren't TOO bad. Yes, people were using Excel spreadsheets for scheduling (to minimize latency / maximize throughput) but you would transfer data from the EE -> VU0 -> VU1 -> GS for rendering. What _really_ made the PS2 challenging was managing all of its SEVEN processors: EE, VU0, VU1, IOP, GS, SPU, and IPU. It was a PITA to get (especially managing DMA transfers) but once you had everything working it was magic. RenderWare was a god send for PC developers who didn't want to waste time learning idiosyncrasies of the system.

I definitely can't see that. The VUs allow you to do a lot of cool things, especially in 1999/2000. I suppose that making the hardware impossible for anyone outside of the SONY engineers to grasp would constitute "garbage", however hahaha

[@Vandius24]

The PS2 is always going to be in a league of it's own, and some of it's features are overlooked by people trying to code for the device. PS2 had a full Linux OS you could buy and use on an unhacked console. PS2 was marketed towards audio enthusiasts as it was the only console that supported 5.1 surround with it's optical audio port (xbox didn't have surround audio like PS2 supported, no optical audio on Xbox). PS2 was marketed as a device for adults with it's more mature style of looks and features. It'll fit nicely next to an audio receiver with how it looks. There's a lot more about the PS2 that made it king of the consoles, but marketing towards the music and movie industry really solidified it's position, and at the time DVD players were over $200 a piece. You could even buy a remote that looked very professional/sleek to control a PS2 playing DVDs and CDs.

[@Vandius24]

No other game console supported high quality audio or 5.1 surround until xbox 360 came out. Want the best audio/game music of that generation, get a PS2.
