Why Is WWE '12 is not being released on Playstation 2/PS 2 and PlayStation Portable/PSP

The WWE Universe is excited at the announcement of WWE '12 but at the same time , some of the WWE Universe members are not so happy.And Their Reason : "WWE '12 is not being released on PlayStation Portable OR PlayStation 2.They say its because PlayStation 2 and Portable are Much Cheaper Compared To The Systems in which WWE '12 is Scheduled To Release ; Microsoft XBOX 360 , Sony PlayStation 3 and Nintendo Wii.Well , I Have Two Words For Those Guys....It Is Wrong (err....actually its 3 Words..But , Who Counts ?).As You Know , The Evolution in The History Of Gaming Consoles Change because of invention of Newest Storage Devices.Such as , When The Usage of DVDs were increased , Sony created PlayStation 2 just because the Older PlayStation was not compatible with DVD's,They just had the ability to read CD's.So,Sony Developed PlayStation 2 just Because The Game Developers began Modifying The Game Textures To Higher Quality , Then it was not enough to fit on CD's , which only had a capacity of 700 Megabytes.They still had lot of money through PlayStation , that money was not why they Developed PlayStation 2.They just needed to upgrade their Features , That's all. Then From 2003,PlayStation 2 Began Taking The Role of the Old PlayStation.But , When Blu-ray discs were introduced , PlayStation 2 was not having the ability to Read it.So, Sony Upgraded PlayStation 2 to A Brand New PlayStation 3.

So,What i am saying is , Until last year , THQ and Yukes got along with Former Engine.But the Gameplay in the PS2 and PS3 versions was almost the same , excluding Ladder Matches and Table Matches where , In PS3 and XBOX 360 versions , characters had extra animations while colliding with the Ring and Ropes.But in PS2 and PSP version , Ladder Matches were complete different.Players were not able to interact with Tables or Ropes while in Mid-air , Tables were not broken when superstars fell from the ladder and son on.The Difference was because PlayStation 2 Discs [DVD Format] were not able to carry more than 4.7 GB of Data and the extended,full version (That of 360 and PS3) of the Game was a minimum of 6623 MB. So , THQ made some changes into the PS2 and PSP versions.Some of Them are:
* Newly introduced Superstar's body sweat was removed
* Environmental Grapple Was added instead of interacting with Environment Automatically
* Animations in the Time of Superstar selection was removed
* WWE Shop , Trophies and Online Modes were Removed
So , the overall size of the PS2 version was reduced to 3304 MB so that it could be fit in a PS2 DVD.

But This Year , Newly Introduced "Predator Technology" is not a small thing. THQ and Yukes almost fully rebooted the Game Engine. The New Features like Breaking The Animations in the middle of a move requires the moveset to be larger in size. So,it is not likely to be fit in a Standard PS2 DVD.In the case of PSP , It Requires more than half of the PSP memory and i don't think that the PSP disc can hold more that 4.7 GB, just like PS 2 DVD.So,Its Bad News For Both PS2 and PSP gamers [ Bad Things Happen To Bad People ]

In the future , i don't think that there will be any PlayStation 2 Version for ANY WWE game.So , All PS2 n PSP users , Buy a new 360 or PS3 if u can afford it, Or you won't be playing WWE games anymore.
