    Good Points: Extremely reliable, adaptable, cheap

    Bad Points: Integrated fan can get very dusty and freeze up

    General comments: The PlayStation is very successful, its great. Its affordable $100, reliable, I have owned mine 4 years+ Adaptable so many accessories. The only problem is the large model fan can really get dusty and stuff up make sure you clean it also quite large and bulky, but also available in. Slim which is very light and slim and portable. The PlayStation is to date the best selling console on the market having reached over 140 million units in sales by mid-2008.overall great cheap buy recommend it to anyone.

    After handing my original PS2 over to my brother when I got my Xbox a few years ago, I recently decided to get myself the slimline model off Ebay fairly cheap, and I must say that despite some minor faults with it I'm rather happy. I've also got an Xbox 360 which I am selling due to lack of use, quite frankly most of the games for it are too pricey and seem to be aimed at more hardcore gamers. Whereas there are plenty of games for casual gamers like myself on the PS2. I have no reason to spend o ...

    I've got it for almost two years and I think I haven't played a better console than this one. It's small, quite cheap, good-looking and you can find loads of games in almost every computer shop. Nowadays, the games are getting almost hard to find, because the new generation consoles have been released, Nintendo Wii, Playstation 3, Xbox 360... and the shops are full of games for these consoles, but there is no problem to find original games on eBay. It's also quiet and if you have the genuine ca ...

    The Playstaion 2 is a very good console, loads of games are available for just about every conceivable premise thinkable. These days(Feb07), the PS2 has become a little dated in terms of graphics and gameplay as we are entering the next generation of gaming(Xbox360 and Nintendo Wii), the long-awaited arrival of the Playstation 3 will render the Playstation 2 defunct, but the PS2 has been a fantastic console and it can be proud of the enjoyment it has given people around the globe.

    A very good piece of kit! I got mine now about 4 years ago!! But since then it has not once broken or crashed. I haven't had to take it apart or anything. It was the best £300 - £400 I spent (when it was new of course)!! I still play on the Sony PlayStation 2 games console, even though all my mates have got new Xbox 360's. I love the simplicity of it, and being a Sony you can't beat it for reliability or performance!! I play online with friends and just random people all over the ...

    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. ...

    The PS2 is a great system is a great console and I recommend it to anyone that likes video games and wants a better system than Nintendo 64, Sega, Playstation 1 or any of the older systems. It has the best selection in games and the grafics aren't bad. The controllers are easy to use and are the same as the PS1. I've had super Nintendo, Nintendo 64 and Gamecube. I like the Playstation 2 better than any that I've had. I still have the Gamecube but the games are more like Wallace and Gromit, ...

    I've had my PS2 since last year, and it hasn't broken or shutdown once. It only plays PS2 games, and has good graphics, is fun to play against people, and it is a great last generation games machine. I would recommend the PS2 to anyone.

    I bought the Sony PlayStation 2 last Christmas (12/04). I saved enough money for it. My dad bought the games for it. I really love the PlayStation2. I won an Xbox at school but I like the PlayStation2 better I think. The PlayStation2 controller I like, but thats me. No complaints about the Xbox though.

    Sony PlayStation 2 - The PS2 is great for non serious gamers but that's about it. The online abilities don't even touch XBox Live. Only two controller ports. A lot of the games are rubbish and the laser which reads the disc is unreliable.

    I got my Sony Playstation 2 about a year after the release. Personally, I have not had a problem with it besides a dirty lens. So from my experience, the system is very reliable. I have heard many stories about the unreliability of the Playstation 2, but I have been pleased. Of course, the PS2 has the BEST selection of games because it was released a year before the other systems. This resulted in a lack of graphical superiority. In my opinion though, the huge selection of games makes up for the ...

    My PS2 has not broken down and lived through a fall from on top of a cupbored. (It was on top of the cupbored because it was being hidden for christmas). Its not the PS2 console graphics that are bad, but the game graphics. Don't forget that Xbox has many of the same games as PS2. I find that most of the graphics are good but you often find a few bad games out there but that is because there are so many PS2 games out there. The PS2 is also good for watching DVD, (Though it has a shorting DVD li ...

    Back in February of 2004, my friends talked me into buying a Sony PS2. I had played their's for years, and always have thought about it, but never did. Finally I broke down and bought one. For the first month of owning it, I played it non-stop. There were SO many games to try out! Well, after that month, I stopped playing it. I went back to my GameCube (which I tend to do all the time) and didn't touch my PS2 for months. People, I don't understand what the big hype is over the PS2. Granted, it d ...

    Okay, the PS2 has the largest selection of software and some truly great series such as Final Fantasy and Grand Theft Auto, the controller has a good arcade type feel for arcade games, online capabilities; now the PS2 has huge cons. PS2 has some great software but its few and far between, the graphics aren't very good, I personally hate the PS2 controller because I hate the grip on it and the arcade type feel doesn't work for every type of game, and Sony makes the crappiest hardware, I bought a ...

    I've had a black ps2 for ages and no problems whatsoever. No crashes, no nothing. The range of games is great, what with titles like NFSU2 and GTA San Andreas. Totally recommend buying one, not a new look one as they are not worth it. also makes a fantastic cd player for all you audiophiles out there.
