![PS2 Price Drop starts April 1st](http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_R62HsSgLewY/SdIw4C5ly1I/AAAAAAAAAVg/hLwJvdItt_Y/s400/PS2.jpg)
This price drop should be attractive to PS3 owners with non-backwards compatible systems who've been yearning to play PS2 titles (both back catalogue or new games - as Sony continues to produce good quality games for the PS2). As well, for parents and casual gamers, this becomes yet another alternative in the search for a gaming system that offers a fantastic price point as well as an extensive library of games. It will be quite interesting to monitor the sales of PS2 from this point forward.
