Okay, maybe that last bit was too much but this is a great game station, which for those who don't have a X Box (same essentialy) and with PS3 at 1 billion dollars on sale, this is worth your time.

Playstation 2... money well spent September 11, 2008

Well today I was just curiously reading through the ps2's low review ratings and I read a couple of things that i found interesting. for starters i'll tell you about my experiences with ps2s. I bought my first ps2 from an EB games in june of 2001 when i was 13 so it was about 8 months after the north american release on the system. And to this day, I've never had any real issues with my ps2 it still plays games and dvds well to this day. the only problem i ever had with it was it wouldnt play the older blue back discs but this was due to a lens focus problem. which is an easy fix if youre comfortable with taking your ps2 apart. also there were complaints with the durability and longevity of the ps2 and my comment on that is my ps2 has been dropped, pulled off my tv stand, sat in the trunk of my car in the middle of winter, got all wet while i was carrying from my car to my house in the rain, has been on for days at a time in the middle of august on the hottest of days and never overheated and worst of wall i had it in a bookbag and dropped it down the the last the steps of the stairs in my house... and theyre hardwood not carpeted steps. so all in all my ps2 has seen some serious abuse and still entertains me to this day 7 years later. sorry i never mentioned it but the ps2 i just talked about was the large original ps2.
Now for what i think of the slim ps2. my sister got a slimline for her birhtday last july. and she has yet to ever any of the problems people have talked about in their reviews. she plays it daily and it works like a finely tuned machine. and as for durability with the slimline hers sits on a stand by her tv and its never been dropped or anything as far as i know and she leaves it on all the time and shes yet to ever experience any over heating issues. its never brought up the disc read error screen and plays most games... but the reason behind that is sony has updated the slimline over time with new hardware and lens that there are some compatibility issues with playstation 1 and playstation 2 games but sony has the games that that dont work posted on the playstation website.
Well i dont have much more for today... i hope this helps you feel a little more comfortable about buying a ps2... its a really great system and i highly reccomend this system to anyone looking for some good entertainment with a huge library of games availible that comes at a very reasonable price considering the ps3 is going for $400 where as the ps2 is only $129.99.

I've always trusted Sony's products, and I've always liked the Playstation, so when I got this in 2004, I was pretty excited. Its extremely compact size is a big plus over the original PS2, and the fact that it lacks the powered sliding disc drive of the old PS2 (a common failure point) makes it incredibly reliable.
I have put this poor unit through a lot of abuse, including accidentally dropping it against a hard surface, and leaving it on for literally weeks at a time. It has never missed a beat. I think it has frozen up on me twice in my entire ownership of it, during which time I have completed Gran Turismo 3 and 4, Burnout 3 and Revenge, Battlefront 1 and 2, SOCOM 1 and 4, CoD2, Corvette (a lousy game), Stuntman, and played numerous DVDs. So I'm not what you'd call a "light user."
I highly recommend this console, and although there are much better games out now for the 7th generation consoles (360 and PS3), both of those are large and seem to have reliability problems that naturally come with higher technology. This is still a fun system and plays many of my classic favorite games.
