Overall, the sixth generation expanded the role of gaming consoles into a broader entertainment experience—whether through online gaming or the ability to play DVDs. As the seventh generation consoles entered and prospered in the market, the GameCube and Xbox were discontinued. Sony, on the other hand, continued to produce the PlayStation 2, despite the release of the PlayStation 3 in 2006. In 2009, Sony announced that production would continue until demand decreased . Therefore, sustained PlayStation 2 sales continue to increase the margin among it and its sixth-generation competitors.
