Most of the time people might think that the Sony PlayStation 2, also called the PS2 by hardcore gamers, was designed for boys’ video games only, but they are completely wrong. While many girls actually do like to play the same games as boys, there are so many more options that girls and their parents just might not know about. The Sony PlayStation 2 is one of the best selling consoles of all time and is very popular with boys, because of the type of games that run on it. It seems like girls are always forgotten when people talk about video games and it is about time this changed. Girls of all ages love to play these games, just like their brothers. The Sony PlayStation 2 has a wide variety of games that girls would enjoy, including Shrek and The Incredibles. It really depends on the age and interests of the girl in question. For the younger crowd, five years of age and up, Dora the Explorer: Journey to the Purple Planet, is a great game of puzzle solving and fun. Sims 2 is another great game, in which players embark on a virtual lifestyle simulation, while Sims 2: Pets allows you to raise pets in your virtual world. There are also action-adventure games, karaoke games and sports games that are made with girls in mind. They just don’t get as much attention as the video games everyone thinks the boys will like.
