MODERATORS
You wouldn't be wrong about games peaking in the PS2 years, in fact the PS3 specifically made itself backward compatible with the PS1 and not the PS2 because it would've given the PS2 an unwanted W in how utterly overshadowing it was.
PS3 had backwards compatibility with PS2 for the first couple of hardware revisions, it was removed later.
The move to "HD" when the PS3/360 were dominant was the death knell of hundreds of mid-sized studios, and gaming never really recovered from it.
