General Comments

I got my Sony PlayStation 2 for Christmas the year it came out (don't remember what year though). It was great to begin with, but I, my brother, and my brothers friend, all gave up due to the fact it dies after a couple of years (if you're lucky it lasts that long). My brother's mate bought 3 in two years! They start off by not reading CDs and DVDs, and you know it's on its way out to a slow and painful (and really annoying) death, as it scratches up all your games and refuses to load anything. Now, it's a fair enough thing to buy a new one as they're around 60 quid brand spanking (and slimline) new. But mine cost me (or my mother really) about £200, and for it to play up and ultimately die within two years is bad. I wasn't mad about it, I didn't play for 10 hours a day or anything, sure I had times when I didn't stop all day in the middle of a great game but mostly it was a couple of hours every now and then when I felt like it. It got dirty as hell as well, dust absolutely everywhere and caked in the fan which I guess didn't help much, I don't even know where it all came from. But anyway, if you fancy going out and buying a reasonably cheap console, it's worth a go but if you're looking for something that will last I'd say definitely don't buy second hand!
