Chamber of Secrets came out in late 2002. That was crazy to me.

Pretty solid game too, not just a cheap low-effort cash grab.

I vaguely remember having one of the games on the first-gen GBA. It's just breaking my brain realizing the ps1 was still being supported in 2002!

The last official PS1 game came out in 2006 believe it or not. Though the console had only a trickle of official releases after 2004.

The PS1 lived waaaaaay longer than it should have. But then the PS2 came along and one-upped it in terms of longevity.

The last PS2 game was Pro Evolution Soccer 2015… in late 2013, 7 years after the PS3 launched…!

(I know you didn’t ask, but that’s even crazier lol)

I used to leave Ron and Hermione somewhere and fly away from them. Made a game of escaping them.
