Product Description

 
The Sony Playstation 2 is the fastest selling video game system of all time and home to some of the biggest gaming franchises ever created. Out-of-the-box backwards compatibility with Playstation One software and built-in DVD playback are but a couple of reasons the console has reached such legendary status. The 128-bit Emotion Engine that lies at the heart of the Playstation 2 has breathed life into such titles as Grand Theft Auto III, John Madden Football, and Final Fantasy X. With such an expansive list of features it’s not hard to see how the PS2 has blurred the line between niche gamer and mainstream consumer.

Why The Playstation 2 Just Won't Die

Date of Review:  Jun 12, 2009
The Bottom Line: A perfect console for those looking to play classic and new video games on a budget, or the casual gamer who doesn't need the "newest, biggest thing."
Review: The PS2 was introduced in 2000. Simple enough statement, right? Well, there's more to it. With Sony's announcement that they will continue releasing new titles on the PS2 through 2010, that marks a full decade the PS2 has been relevant. What other...

The best of it

Date of Review:  Jan 30, 2009
The Bottom Line: You should buy it, you will have the fun of your life
Review: This is the best console I've ever played in my life. It has all that you can expect from a console, and the games are still cheap. Somehow you need to buy a separate cooler to keep the console working for long periods of time.... Multiplayer...
