Sony makes wonders August 16, 2010 Maverick I got my PS2 on christmas of 2004 when I was in 4th grade, and now in 2010, after 6 years of intense gaming, THE THING STILL WORKS LIKE A CHARM! I just sold it recently though but this is one of the best consoles of its generation. I don't know if anyone is going to buy one now with XBOX 360s, PS3s and WIIs out but this little guy will last you forever. Very reliable, nice and small, and online gaming! I never had internet access where my ps2 was so I never gamed online but I heard it was awesome, even though almost all the servers are closed for online ps2 games.
Great System!! August 7, 2010 Book Lover 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This was my First gaming system so I was hesitant at first but LOVE how small and Great it is! The only Down side is it doesn't have an off switch so you have to unplug it from the wall.

This console does'nt have a fan and it burns out fast. This one wasnt made as well as the orginal, its designed not to last long.
Awesome *inexpensive* gaming experience July 10, 2010 L. LeSueur 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
Within the past year, I've purchased the Wii and the Xbox 360 for my family. My wife loves the excercise titles on the Wii and DDR titles on both consoles. My 7-year old and her friends love the Wii Sports and other kids games. I enjoy the superior graphics and gaming experience on the 360. I am planning to get a PS3 next year. I had never even considered purchasing the PS2. Like some of the reviewers that one-starred the PS2, I wondered why it was even on the market anymore when there's superior gaming consoles available these days.
Well, my little brother still has his PS2, so I would play it sometimes when I went to his house. The games certainly didn't have the same quality graphics as the 360 or PS3 obviously, but they were fun. I noticed that most PS2 games sell for really cheap on Amazon, so I picked up a few games to take over with me to his place when I would visit. I love classic fighting games, so I was very pleased to find the Street Fighter collections and King of Fighter series on the PS2. Not to mention Soul Calibur 2 & 3 along with several Tekken and Mortal Kombat titles. You've also got the classic GTA titles, God of War 1 & 2, Castlevania, Jaws, and the list goes on. Playstation 1 games are also fully compatible with no problems. My wife was excited to find out there are eight DDR titles on the PS2 and my kid loves the Eye-Toy games. That was enough to sell us. It's been three months since we got the PS2 and we love it and play it just as much as the other systems. The other great thing is that we've been able to bulk up our PS2 game library at only a fraction of the cost of the other two consoles. This particular PS2 model is lightweight and comparatively small to other consols.
Now I know why Sony is still shipping PS2s and people are still buying them even after a decade; It still delivers a high-quality gaming experience which is not too far away from the 360 and PS3, and it does so at a lower cost. I think the only people who wouldn't like the PS2 in this day and age are die-hard gamers who demand nothing less than the best current 7th-gen graphics and online experience. For lighter gamers such as myself and for families who are looking for alternate gaming entertainment besides the Wii, the PS2 has a lot to offer.
Suggestions: If you have an HDTV with progressive scan, there are several PS2 titles that support that format. You just press the X and delta buttons simultaneously when starting up the game. For a better picture quality, use an S-Video or component cable. Also, if you plan on getting Playstation 1 games, you will need to get PS1 memory cards as the PS2 memory cards don't work with PS1 games.
