Utterly fucking pointless, but good for the non-BC PS3 owners, or those stuck in the fucking past unable, or simply do not have the fucking needs to get with the program. It's all good, baby, it's alllll good.

DC was just about my first system too. LOL. I went to XBOX because the controller looked the same as the DCAniHawk said:I noticed quite a lot of Sega/Dreamcast fans did this back in 01 or 02.

Somnid said:I didn't have a PS2. I had a GCN, Xbox, PC and GBA, I had all the games I could afford with my budget already. That and my friend had one so we swapped consoles sometimes but I never got to play everything I wanted because he didn't have it. Unfortunately, it took so long to drop, even here I'm rather unwilling to buy it. Maybe $50 if it ever gets there but probably used. It kinda sucks because I was interested in BC on PS3 because I didn't have a PS2 and would have put money toward that because it would be a value to me but that's not really an option anymore.
Buy a used one. PS2's library is overrated, but there still might be a few gems you'll enjoy.Somnid said:I didn't have a PS2.

I don't know about that. I vastly prefer werstern games to Japanese games and Xbox/PC had much better support from the great western studios.AniHawk said:...
What? The PS2 was pretty great man. The one genre it really lacked was FPS.
I don't... only had an xbox. And I bought a japanese 60gb ps3 :lolmadmook said:About time... too bad everyone's already got one.
AniHawk said:What kind of games are you into? There are probably tons that are worth spending $150 to play (system + memory card + tax)
Somnid said:I just don't have a lot of money and I'd rather spend my money on new games. Right now I'm pretty much DS and digital downloads. I'd love to own more it's just not in my budget.
szaromir said:Didn't you write something about great platformers (or was it my imagination)? Any worth recommending? I played Jak 1 which I loved (Jak 2 turned out to be a terrible non-platformer :/), and R&C are shooters for me (and I don't like them). I know that Sly games are supposed to be fun, but any others? I'll try to get my hands on them.

inner-G said:Question: Do the slims in the USA right now have the internal power supply, or is it still a power brick?
Machado said:again, where can I find white ps2s?
Machado said:does it have the power brick inside???
Tempy said:Is it that important for people that it has an internal power brick? I just generally stick a console some place and leave it there. Sure, with many consoles it'll be a huge mess of wires and power bricks, but eh.
I don't have a PS2 and never owned one. It's because I have a GameCube which offered enough games for me next to a Dreamcast which I bought a few years after its dead until 2005 where I've got an Xbox 360 and could play all the games of last generation that were not exclusive to PS2 (minus a few which aren't bc). So I didn't buy a PS2 until now, as the exclusive games weren't so interesting to me, that I have to buy one. I could buy one soon, though, as I'm quite sure that I won't have to wait too long until a used PS2 in a nice condition can be bought for 50-60. Then, this cheap PS2 is sure to fill any gap my Wii, 360 and DS might possibly leave 'till next generation.Quixzlizx said:How are there people who post on gaming forums that have never owned a ps2?

In response to the limitations of HD Loader, a number of independent programmers have developed patches which extend the functionality of HD Loader to improve game compatibility. These include a fix to improve dual-layer support, one to implement a non-aligned data buffer (which allows Gradius V to be played from the HD), one to defeat newer copy-protection measures (popularly known as the God of War fix), one to support the new "slimline" SCPH-70000 series PlayStation 2 hardware and one to implement 48-bit Logical Block Addressing (which allows HD Loader to take full advantage of hard drives larger than 137 GB; or 128 GiB, as reported by HD Loader) as of 0.7c hard drives of up to 2 Terabytes can be used.

I would have done this but I liked JRPGs so I stuck with PS2. My one regret is never getting to play Shenmue II.akilshohen said:I never had one at all. Went from Dreamcast to XBOX.
