Product Description
When it comes to video games, the one that raised gaming up by several notches is the Playstation 2 or PS2 as its endearing fans call it. It remains a major player in the vidgame ring with new games being published for it each year. Its large repertory of games helps it enjoy continued popularity. The PlayStation-2 computer entertainment system is small, slim and network ready. And it has an enormous game library - over 1,400 games - to choose from! The redesigned PlayStation2 inherits the basic functions and design philosophy of earlier PS2 systems, but the internal design architecture has been completely overhauled to include the latest technologies. Renew your current PS2.
If you're just getting into videogames, the PS2 is a great place to start. You'll love it! Play DVD videos and audio CD discs on your PS2 DualShock analog controller with pressure sensitivity on every action button (up to 255 levels) and the enhanced mobility of the analog thumbsticks

 Excellent replacement after the old one fried October 10, 2007

I bought one of the old PS2 systems when it came out and it worked very well. It was my DVD player as well as my video game console. When I went on vacation I accidentally left it on and it fried. After five good years of service, it finally died.
I had to buy a replacement and so I bought the slimmer version. It works just as well as the other one did and takes up a lot less space on my TV stand. It plays all my games and my DVDs, so I am very satisfied with this Sony product.
I refuse to buy a PlayStation 3 just because I refuse to spend a great wad of cash for a video game console. And with the new Black and White PS3 systems that are being released in November which do not feature PlayStation 2 compatibility, I don't see why I should buy a PS3 right now when it means I'd have to keep my PlayStation 2 just to play my PS2 games is pointless.
If you're looking for a good game system for a low price, buy the PlayStation 2, it's very good for games and DVDs, especially since WII doesn't play DVDs.
Excellent Console for the money .... September 12, 2007

Wow ... I was amazed at the size of this console. It's about the size of a trade paperback book, and actually weighs less (1.3 lbs)... in other words it's very small. I purchased the $4.99 upright base from Amazon and I can hardly see this black PS2 across my room.
The network adapter on the PS2 and network startup disk that is included, worked perfect and was very easy to follow. For me, I just purchased a 50' CAT-5 ethernet from Amazon ($11.50)and ran it along my baseboards from my DSL router to the PS2 and had things up and running in about 10 minutes.
I am very pleased with this console's quality and functionality, the selection of PS2 games, and the nice selection of on-line games available. I would highly recommend this console and gaming system for those on a budget and anyone for that matter! Enjoy!
 Too bad these are junk..... September 28, 2007

I am warning anyone considering purchasing this system - DON'T!!
I bought this when it first came out (2001 or so), and it lasted 8 months before it died. It stopped reading any of the games I tried out. The classic "Disc Read Error" message became commonplace in my house. Sony would do nothing for me, it was more expensive to get it fixed than to buy a new one. So.....like an idiot I bought a new one. My second PS2 only lasted 6 months and did the same thing. This time, it would not eject my NCAA Football game so I had to force open the disc tray just to get my game out. Once again, Sony would do nothing. The warranty was only for 90 days, thus the 6 month time frame did not allow warranty coverage. This was a very disappointing product, as I had never had problems with Sony products before. I enjoyed many of the games I played on the PS2, I just believe that it should last longer than 6-8 months. I bought an Xbox and never had any problems with it. Ever. Shame on Sony for putting a junky product, charging $200 for it (at the time), and then not backing it up with a decent warranty.
Overall = Poor
Pathetic quality of the Sony PS2 77001 December 23, 2007

As I write this I am awaiting the 4th return of this product from Sony. I originally purchased this in January of 2007 from Amazon. Since that time each console has had maybe 12 hours total play time before the "disk read error" hits. The most recent return in Oct 07 did not even allow that as the console would not function right out of the box from Sony exchange center in TX. It has now also been returned to Sony for ANOTHER exchange. Just to be clear that is 4 exchanges in less than one year. This product has been defective from the get go. It has not had excessive wear or tear as the only one who plays it is my Grandson on his once a month visits. I strongly encourage a different console.
Quite Possibly the best console ever September 11, 2007

Sales numbers bear this out. Sony systems survive for a very long time. As opposed to Microsoft products which... well we all know are obsolete within 2 years.
