Period. I know many people start screaming "Xbox" and "Halo" but good luck finding one. PS2's are still in good supply. If you're being hurt by the recession and can't afford a PS3 or Xbox 360 this is the perfect system for you. from Bestbuy.com What's great about it:?Fun, design, lots of games to choose from What's not so great:?You need to take care of it really good... treat it like a baby :D "I got the slimline version of the PS2 not long after it came out. I went out and bought it, replacing the big, bulky one. from Bestbuy.com What's great about it:?lots of games,looks great What's not so great:?none "I had one for years but sold my old one so i could have money for a house. so glad i got this silm ps2. It fits anywhere and the color is awsome with my silver LCD. from Bestbuy.com Reviewer Images (click to see full-size image) (Click anywhere inside this popup to close it) (Click anywhere inside this popup to close it) What's great about it:?Affordable, backward compatible, Design, compact. What's not so great:?Wish it had a DVD slot loader design "I had a PS2 years ago when it was the fatter clunky model. Got rid of it when I got my xbox and later my Xbox 360. from Bestbuy.com What's great about it:?EXTREMELY CHEAP (not in a bad way) What's not so great:?scratches easily, not very durable "I've had my ps2 for about a year now and i can't believe that you can get on for $100. I think i paid $150 for mine and it was still a great value. from Bestbuy.com What's great about it:?The design is very good and minimalist What's not so great:?Nothing "This Console gave me so many hours of fun and excitement back in the days and even now i still play God of War and RE 4 on ti once on a while , if you have not played any PS 2 games and plan on getting it i recommend you to buy this version because the Color looks very cool . Also a few Game RecommendationsRacing: Gran Turismo 3 and 4Figthing: Capcom vs SNK 2 , Street Fighter Alpha Anthology, Soulcalibur 2Action - Adventure : God of War 1 and 2 , Devil May Cry 1 and 3 (stay away from Devil May Cry 2 it sucks)Survival Horror: Resident Evil Code Veronica, Resident Evil 4 , Fatal Frame 1,2 and 3Espionage: Metal Gear Solid 2, Metal Gear Solid 3 , Splinter CellRPG: Final Fantasy X, Grandia 3, Dragon Quest and Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2Overall this System gets a 9.7 from Bestbuy.com What's not so great:?After around a year or 2, I couldn't play certain games. "Despite the color, it is like any other regular playstation. I got it around christmas 2007, or so (its not silver, its white), and I dont play it too much, mabie like 30 minutes a day. I recieved 2 games this year titled "Jacka**" and "Dave Mirra BMX 2", and they had absolutley no scratches, and were brand new. from Bestbuy.com What's great about it:?Popular kids games like Backyard sports games What's not so great:?Not durable "I have now been through 2 PS2 models because I have accidently droped them. Luckely I got replacement plans on both and i dont have to sell all my games. from Bestbuy.com Pros: It's been a few years since I owned an earlier revision of the PS2 (and sold it because I didn't have money for games) but I had to buy the new one when they lowered the price and revised it further to include the ethernet port, the elimination of the sliding drive access, the better optical drive with faster loads, the integrated power supply, and most of all, the wonderful small size. Now I do have money for games, and there are a few specific games that make this console more than worth the cost. from Newegg.com Pros: This playstation is great and much better then the old black versions. Cons: The only reason i gave this a 4 star rating is due to the power supply hookup. It's still the same stupid revision as the black!My other silver version has the very first style of power supply hook up, of where you just need the one 2 prong cord!Newegg must have an old batch of ps2's or something?? Other Thoughts: In either case its much better then what my brother has. from Newegg.com
