In 2000 Sony launched the anticipated PlayStation 2 and Sega launched another console with the same technical characteristics as the Dreamcast, nothing more than a 14-inch monitor, a keyboard, speakers and the same controls called Dreamcast Drivers 2000 Series CX-1.
Microsoft enters the console industry by creating the Xbox in 2001.
Nintendo released the successor to the Nintendo 64, the Gamecube, and the first all-new Game Boy since the company's inception, the Game Boy Advanced. Seeing that it couldn't compete, especially with a new machine like Sony's, Sega announced that it would no longer produce hardware, becoming only a software developer in 2002.
The PC personal computer is the most expensive gaming platform, but also the one that allows for the most flexibility. This flexibility comes from the fact of being able to add to the computer components that can be constantly improved, such as graphics or sound cards and accessories such as steering wheels, pedals and controls, etc. In addition, it is possible to update the games with official patches or with new additions made by the company that created the game or by other users.
