You left out that the PlayStation 2 could play its games even after ejecting the game for a short time and could continue where you left of, so say a sibling accidentally hit eject button you had both time and continuation ability for the game you were playing
Master of spinjitsu Doom really, well ive never been into God of war so I apologize for that, however all games I had were able to do that, Dbz games, GTA games, THQ games, etc.
It's too old. They need to re-release the PS2 so it'll play both 1 and 2 games. I have a stack of almost 25 PS2 games gathering dust because the PS3 slim won't read them.
It's 2019 and my PS2 is still alive. Anyone here who has still a working PS2? (edited): wow, so many.. it means that PS2 is the best game console, ever.. Really awesome to see so many PS2 still working, may it be fat, slim, tower or the very first issue.. yay to us all.. (I got PS2 slim for 13 years now.)
skalawitz For me it's Tekken Tag Tournament, 4, & 5. Def Jam Fight For NY, GTA 3, VICE CITY, SAN ANDREAS, Jak & Daxter Precursor Legacy, NBA STREET Vol 1 & 2, Sonic Riders, WWF Smackdown Here's comes the pain and Shut your mouth, Marvel vs Capcom 2, NFL Blitz 2003, NBA LIVE 2003, NBA BALLERS, NFL STREET 2. Classics. I mean could name a lot more you get the idea. Shame you can't say the same about today's video games. Even that industry is not the same or fun like used to be in the 90s/early 2000s.
XAVIER1992 Cos today is all about being online with all that DLC and stuff, and you get to talk smak against people older than you.. I don't mind that but I love my PS2 more so I take care of it..
I'll never forget the day I bought my ps2, and my first game being GTA 3! I was so blown away by the graphics and gameplay! It was right then I realized that gaming had changed forever.
ps2 by far was the greatest sony playstation unit ever. just my opinion. i never went beyond ps3. so i do not have a clue to the newest up to date consoles but a can imagine they must be breathtaking.
You didn't mention that after standing the console on its end to save space, the PS icon on the disc tray could be rotated 90 degrees to an upright orientation, respectively with the console.
One thing you forgot to mention when talking about it being able to sit vertical, is how you can rotate the PS logo on the disk drive to suit which orientation you choose.
Plus the pc wouldnt be very powerful by todays standards. I’d love to do it though i fetishize old gaming tech. And obviously you can play music and movies on it.
PS2 actually was the cheapest dvd player of its time lol. It's how i got my mom to buy me one back then. I was like well now we can go rent dvds at blockbuster !
Ahhhh, the great memories of playing the PS2. My first games were Spy Hunter and Red Faction 2. The games I got hooked on the most were Battlefield 2 Modern Combat, Mercenaries Playground of Destruction, Sly 2 and 3, Simpsons Road Rage, Ty the Tasmanian Tiger 2 and Simpsons Hit and Run. Great stuff and I still play the PS2 to this day.
Sucks when u get a ps2 with an xbox game its like a car with no gas i waited 2 months to get a ps2 game during does 2 months i only used it for dvds lol
I remember finding that out. I felt sooooooo cool cause my mates didn't know and they 2 thought it was cool. Ah the little things made this console gr8😂😂😂😂
I got a xbox 360 in December 2005 and it still works it has over 11 red rings in I have an original PS2 but it gets the red screen every time I try to play it
don't forget some games have a progressive scan feature such as burnout 3 takedown, just hold X and ∆ when a loading screen appears, or just hold the buttons after the boot sequence. I also know that tourist trophy and gran turismo 4 have a 1080i option as well with 480p; make sure you're using the component cables or you will only use 480i (as a standard video format). I hope to get a CRT television with component connection soon, it'll look real good.
Fact he didn't mention your PS2 could do. To get the best resolution possible in your PS2 console first connect it to a quality HD TV with either component cables or HDMI-PS2 adapter. Second, once you turn on your PS2 after the PS2 logo comes up press the triangle 🔺 and ❌ simultaneously to activate progressive scan mode. 😉👍
I got mine as a hand-me-down WAY after they were cool, works like new, I have so many good games that probably no one knows about. It's my childhood and I still love it, I'm even still buying new games for it. ^ω^ Edit: although now that I got a Switch it looks much worse in comparison :/
^_^ For me, I used to have a PS1 and PSP. I still have a PS2 that my brother left for me. And I also have a PS4 (friend gave it to me for free as a hand-me-down) I played on two PS3s years back. One was at my brothers’ apartment and the other was at my dad’s house. I don’t own it. I remember playing games like Spider-Man, Spyro, Crash Bandicoot and Capcom vs SNK on PS1, Street Fighter EX3, KH, KH2, DBZ Games, Need For Speed 2, Kinetica, Guitar Hero Games, Tony Hawk’s Underground 2, and more on PS2 when I was a kid in the 90’s and early and mid 2000’s. As an adult, I played Batman Arkham City, Skyrim, Uncharted, Alice Madness Returns, Persona and some more on PS3. And on my PS4, I played Outlast and Outlast Whistleblower and Kingdom Hearts series. I still need more games for my PS4. I never played Bully on the PS2 but I have played it on XBox 360 & Mobile. I’d like to play Bully on PS2 one day.
Yeah I also got the PS2 from my dad and whenever he'd come home from a long day at work I would catch him playing on it in my parents room. Socom 2 US Navy Seals, Midnight Club, Gran Turismo, Sonic Unleased and etc were such amazing games and the graphics still look so amazing even after all these years! I was around 6-8 when I started playing it (I was born the same year the PS2 came out) so much of the hype died down a little but ever since I've always had a PlayStation system always maintaining my loyalty with a PS2, PS3, PS4 and hopefully the new PS5 which is very hard to get these days. However I will admit that my loyalty has been tested as I ended up purchasing an Xbox Series X not because I was wanting to switch loyalties but because my friends either had the Xbox or had a PlayStation so I wanna be able to play on both since cross-play still needs to be in the works. Games like minecraft has it but that's really it.
My 6yr son recently walked in and seen me playing PS2, stopped, looked at the screen and said Dad! What the hell happened? He's only ever known PS4 graphics 😂
@@johntracy72 the Xbox 360 had the same issue too, alongside the disk tray wearing out and not opening properly over time due to it standing vertically
here it is my friends 2024 and i am still as excited today as i was when i first recieved my ps2 console back in 2000, yes i do also own the ps3. no need to buy any further consoles as these two will give me a lifetime of great gaming.

I have a PS2 and I still play on it now and I know everything from A to Z about PlayStation 2 thanks for talking about PlayStation 2 it's really made my day since that console was one of the best consoles still is
Lol I never stopped playing mine haha..refurbished remotes two memory cards and a shitload of games from spyro too crash..but nfs2 underground will always be king..only reason I just watched this vid was im about to play mine haha..
I have mine and works just fine, it's the slim version though, the first one that I had burned along with my collection of games, comics and figures on a house fire.
Kid: I bought fortnite for the ps4 but I only have a ps2>:( Kid sees thumbnail: Kid: YES NOW I CAN FINNALY PLAY FATNITE The mom: *sniffs* why do smell something burning
What the heck i just read this comment then jumped from my chair to the ps2 and found the logo upside down i tried to turn it and i was like😱😱😱😱😲😲😲😲😲😵😵😵😵😵😵😵😨😨😨😨😨 and i almost swore good thing i was alone😂😂
Although it’s 2019, I’m gonna get a PlayStation 2 again. I had 2 throughout my childhood but never played them properly because I was really crap at games but now that I’m older I’d love to replay some of the games I had growing up including the mainstream ones I never got to experience.
I got a PS2 from my mother witch got it from my uncle who got the PS2 brand new as a present, and im still using it at my grandparents house. Reusing is fun!
Great video! Let's not forget the fact that the PS2 is also backwards compatible, an added bonus for people who still own PS1 games. I'm still rockin' my PS2 and buying games for it. Timesplitters 2 & 3 are great to play with friends. I still have some old PS1 games too. I love MDK for it's weirdness, originality and fun gameplay, and I still play Twisted Metal World Tour when friends come over.
@Shyammont its such a versatile game for its time! Another ps2 game that is still amazing and far ahead of its time, is Jak And Daxter: the precoursors legacy. The next 2 werent too good imo.
PS2 is one of my favorite consoles. Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2, The Sly Cooper series, Star Ocean, some good licensed games like Spongebob, Inuyasha: Secret of the Cursed Mask, a lot of PS1 games I play on it, and my good PS2 game search is still going. I just love it! It also means a lot to me because my dad gave me his. He got it at a garage sale for $30 and played hunting, racing, and board games. When he stopped gaming, he noticed that I loved video games (I still do) and that I was looking for a PS2, so he gave me his! I still have it today, one of the big thick ones, and it works wonderfully.
+Justin VanHeusen before hdmi, there were a set of cables called multi component cables that plugged into a ps2 like normal but instead of the standard 3 connectors they had 5. They’re necessary for 1080i on ps2, I’ve been meaning to buy some for gt4
Final Fantasy XII and, I think, Rogue Galaxy (the latter of which I am currently playing, as well as making a Strategy Guide for, as well as its PS4 re-release) are also HDMI compatible, Adam Ray. I certainly know that the PS4 is so, as is in HD, and it looks even BETTER on the PS4, though the PS2 original port is no slouch, even in the modern era.
Just like the PS2 was the cheaper DVD player when it came out, so was the PS3 for BluRay when IT came out. Thanks SONY for giving us the cheaper option, which also meant that the big names had to drop their prices to compete. lol
Borgking79 In a business standpoint, they were very generous and the cost to manufacture PS3s was very expensive. Sony practically lost money for every console sold until the release of the PS3 Slim.
I miss my ps2, My dad sold it or gave it to a Friend. I don’t know if I said I was fine with it or not but I sure do miss it and wish that we never did give it away. That ps2 was practically my hole child-childhood ( ?-9 )
The PS2 is/was the best system put out in the past 20 years. I know the 3, the 4 and other x boxes are more powerful, but no other system in that time span was pushed to its limits like it was.
I knew everything on this list. The Linux thing specifically, I still have a PS2 running the Linux OS I use for modding, writing, and programming PS2 tier games for friends and family. Also, I'll state it again on my own comment as I commented on someone's "who uses Linux" comment: if you have an Android device? You use Linux every time you use your device. Android is a light Linux bit kernal system, and most devices with any kind of fully fledged OS use some form of Linux bit kernal system. Linux runs all your game servers as well. It's one of the most heavily relied on OS's in the modern world. Which is a shame, its so versatile and moddable most people will use some form of Linux their entire lives and never even know. The difference between Apple OS and Windows platforms? Linux is free, and let's everyone use it's source code, and doesn't toot it's own horn about it. They just let everyone use it and never ask for any credit. So most of you don't even know your most likely on a Linux based system right now if your on an Android device, or almost ANY smart TV.
Only if you assume that the average consumer can't learn or be taught how to program basic things for linux or just download other people's freely posted and shared content. And also, just on that second part, not only can you download things in a very Android app store reminiscent marketplace, but if you download it from the actual site it comes packed with a bunch of programs that MOST people use and it takes a simple Google search and zero programming knowledge or experience to do all sorts of cool crazy stuff with Linux. I personally have a little more positive an opinion of the average person capacity to use Google and follow simple directions.
+Rorik Simpson Most people consider the average consumer to be someone who doesn't know a lot about computers and just uses it for taxes and for their job. I use Linux on my Chromebook because Chrome OS is complete and utter garbage. But Windows on my main PC. Coding is something that most people don't take interest in as it is extremely complicated for the stuff they probably want to do. In terms of programming, it takes time and I doubt somebody has the patience to go through a bunch of UA-cam tutorials just to do one thing. Linux isn't a bad OS. It just doesn't have a user friendly GUI. That goes to Mac OS. Windows is not that confusing but still might be. Also, a bunch of games aren't on Linux. That's the gamer aspect. For a gamer, Linux and Mac are complete garbage for gaming. Linux is only good for the more experienced. That's my opinion. But I still respect yours.
The main reason why I feel Linux is average consumer friendly is any more it's less embraced the Android appearance and feel so really as long as someone can use a modern Android cell phone they can use modern Linux. Between the new App store, all instructibles included, and Google and UA-cam you don't have to have any programming experience or anything. I got my brother to try Linux, he's what would count as your "average consumer" and I didn't actually have to show him how to do anything. The Linux site explained perfectly how to install it 4 ways from Sunday and once installed it came with manuals that popped up and explained everything he needed to know. 20 minutes and a Google search later he was running Windows programs on his own, no programming, no setting tweaking, just open the app store, identify the app he needed, install, run.
fortnite isn't a game that you get via disc and ps4 games will never be playable on ps2 you should know that everyone knows that and if you don't you need to seek some help
I remember taking my ps2 to my grandmother´s house so I could play games AND watch DVDs. The fact it could be used to play DVDs was a good excuse to bring it. Speaking of playing movies. Even though I don´t play with my PS3 anymore, my father still uses it to play Blu-ray movies.
I always like seeing towers on the PlayStation 2 startup screen because that's what makes it very unique and creative, unlike many other video game consoles. I have the North American NTSC SCPH-30001 PlayStation 2. Good job!
I'm guessing one of those things I didn't know my ps2 could do was not recognize a blueray disk as it enters the disc tray. Brilliant thumbnail Baity McBaiterson
As the ps3 came, i was wondering why no one made advertisings mention that it was the cheapest blu ray player at that time, so they could sell more consols...
the reason was because Sony got super cocky after the ps2 sold super well and very vaguely advertised it with disturbing confusing commercials thinking “well they all liked ps2 so much so they’ll have to buy this.” it sold poorly at first and later on to save it then they started taking marketing it seriously but it definitely gave Xbox 360 a huge head start for the generation
As I saw this Video I thought ,,Why is he telling me things I already know" then I looked at the date and I thought ,,Hmm, maybe Kids or Oldies didn't knew that" but I'm Still using my PS2 ;)
That pressure sensitive touch for some games, amazing how advanced that was. Press harder and have a harder attack amazing back in the day that statement was true.
PS1 - PLAYSTATION ONE CLASSIC MINI is coming soon! Sony is relaunching this amazing console once again!

You left out that the PlayStation 2 could play its games even after ejecting the game for a short time and could continue where you left of, so say a sibling accidentally hit eject button you had both time and continuation ability for the game you were playing

My first console was Ps2,i remember me and all My cousins would wake up early in morning and would play tekken and watched movies on it....:)
Standing your PS2 vertically as an option is literally known by anyone who has ever looked at one in a shop.
darkSorceror It's also known to anyone who saw an add for the ps2 since justabout all of them showed the system standing vertically.
Only thing is that discs are more likely to get scratched by the disc reader if stood vertically.
@@johntracy72 the Xbox 360 had the same issue too, alongside the disk tray wearing out and not opening properly over time due to it standing vertically
BUT! Did you know that the little PS2 symbol on the console can rotate 90 degrees so it can look better standing
Actually the first home console wasn’t Atari, it was The Odyssey
And that’s why he’s not a gamer like us
here it is my friends 2024 and i am still as excited today as i was when i first recieved my ps2 console back in 2000, yes i do also own the ps3. no need to buy any further consoles as these two will give me a lifetime of great gaming.

One thing you guys left out is that you can also play ps1 games on a ps2
You can also use ps1 memory cards in a ps2 . however you cant save ps2 games on it.
Everyone knows that.
Ps2 cords also work on a ps1 and ps3
because its a standardized cord that was not designed by sony
Yea but everyone knows it can do that, which defeats the point of the video really
Is there really anyone who didn't know that you could place the PS2 on its side? As far as I remember it was mostly advetised that way.
Maybe not, but did you know you could twist the logo on the front to match the console's orientation?
I have a PS2 and I still play on it now and I know everything from A to Z about PlayStation 2 thanks for talking about PlayStation 2 it's really made my day since that console was one of the best consoles still is
Wow. Never knew the PlayStation 2 could stand up on its side
It can, but it’ll be harder for the console to read the discs
Guess I'll wipe the dust off and try a few things
Same here
Lol I never stopped playing mine haha..refurbished remotes two memory cards and a shitload of games from spyro too crash..but nfs2 underground will always be king..only reason I just watched this vid was im about to play mine haha..
I have mine and works just fine, it's the slim version though, the first one that I had burned along with my collection of games, comics and figures on a house fire.
I still got my slim, I still play it, too

So many non ps2 games featured.

XD Fatnite? Also 😂
I'm quite surprised they didn't add that you can turn the logo around on the console
Michael Bell i actually came here for that and that makes me sad
What the heck i just read this comment then jumped from my chair to the ps2 and found the logo upside down i tried to turn it and i was like😱😱😱😱😲😲😲😲😲😵😵😵😵😵😵😵😨😨😨😨😨 and i almost swore good thing i was alone😂😂
I didn't know about that for 15 years
I forgot you can do that, when my logo was side ways, I thought my sister broke it
I did that a few years ago with my PS2 Slim.
Time to go buy a PS2
DEADPOOL VS DEATH STROKE SPIDER-MAN I am about to do that
U forgot to tell how much u should love ur ps2
Although it’s 2019, I’m gonna get a PlayStation 2 again. I had 2 throughout my childhood but never played them properly because I was really crap at games but now that I’m older I’d love to replay some of the games I had growing up including the mainstream ones I never got to experience.
How many people here got clickbaited
Me, honestly. Waste of freakin' time.
No, never noticed the disc said fornite

@@spoonsyndrome eat ass dude,
If you actually thought that fortnite had disk versions you are dumb and not to mention it was a ps4 disk that was in the ps2
I got a PS2 from my mother witch got it from my uncle who got the PS2 brand new as a present, and im still using it at my grandparents house. Reusing is fun!
@Andy Fennell LMAO 😂😂😂😂😂
I wish my mother was a witch. I had to teach mySELF magick... it took forever! Ugh...
I was very happy to see Jonny in this video, petting his console.
Great video! Let's not forget the fact that the PS2 is also backwards compatible, an added bonus for people who still own PS1 games. I'm still rockin' my PS2 and buying games for it. Timesplitters 2 & 3 are great to play with friends. I still have some old PS1 games too. I love MDK for it's weirdness, originality and fun gameplay, and I still play Twisted Metal World Tour when friends come over.
Sly cooper was a great series
@Shyammont i don't know you. but i already like you
@Shyammont same :)
@Shyammont its such a versatile game for its time! Another ps2 game that is still amazing and far ahead of its time, is Jak And Daxter: the precoursors legacy. The next 2 werent too good imo.
@Shyammont and im ur 100th sub btw.
Good Sloth - JC im ur 89th sub.
PS2 is one of my favorite consoles. Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2, The Sly Cooper series, Star Ocean, some good licensed games like Spongebob, Inuyasha: Secret of the Cursed Mask, a lot of PS1 games I play on it, and my good PS2 game search is still going. I just love it! It also means a lot to me because my dad gave me his. He got it at a garage sale for $30 and played hunting, racing, and board games. When he stopped gaming, he noticed that I loved video games (I still do) and that I was looking for a PS2, so he gave me his! I still have it today, one of the big thick ones, and it works wonderfully.
The thumbnail says I can insert a Disk in a PS2.

Gran Turismo 4 was another 1080i capable game! I remember that :P
I stil play Gran Turismo
Quick question, how would a ps2 have 1080 capabilities without a hdmi?? im really confused now.
+Justin VanHeusen before hdmi, there were a set of cables called multi component cables that plugged into a ps2 like normal but instead of the standard 3 connectors they had 5. They’re necessary for 1080i on ps2, I’ve been meaning to buy some for gt4
Thanks Adam, that cleared alot of questions up
Final Fantasy XII and, I think, Rogue Galaxy (the latter of which I am currently playing, as well as making a Strategy Guide for, as well as its PS4 re-release) are also HDMI compatible, Adam Ray. I certainly know that the PS4 is so, as is in HD, and it looks even BETTER on the PS4, though the PS2 original port is no slouch, even in the modern era.
I bought a modded ps2 today just to play the old games
I just now knew there was a hl1 game for ps2 with a co-op original campaign so thats why im booting my already modded ps2 after 10 or so years lmao
Of course I never knew that PS4 CDs are the same size as PS2 CDs
My saddest PS2 memory was my Spyro A Hero’s Tail game save getting corrupted. *TWICE* 😞
Just like the PS2 was the cheaper DVD player when it came out, so was the PS3 for BluRay when IT came out. Thanks SONY for giving us the cheaper option, which also meant that the big names had to drop their prices to compete. lol
Borgking79 In a business standpoint, they were very generous and the cost to manufacture PS3s was very expensive. Sony practically lost money for every console sold until the release of the PS3 Slim.
@Fantasy Certainly beats many of the few Blu-Ray players that were introduced in 2006, with prices going up more than $1000.
That was intentional marketing. Sony wanted people buying a gaming console, not just a Blu-ray player so they would keep buying games.
The PS3 was 500 dollars when it came out. A Blu-ray player was 200
False
The ps2 has and always will be the greatest console ever made. ❤️
"More than 4 hours a day, and take it on holiday with him"
Wasn't that normal?
I miss my ps2, My dad sold it or gave it to a Friend.
I don’t know if I said I was fine with it or not but I sure do miss it and wish that we never did give it away.
That ps2 was practically my hole child-childhood ( ?-9 )
The PS2 is/was the best system put out in the past 20 years. I know the 3, the 4 and other x boxes are more powerful, but no other system in that time span was pushed to its limits like it was.
I knew everything on this list. The Linux thing specifically, I still have a PS2 running the Linux OS I use for modding, writing, and programming PS2 tier games for friends and family.
Also, I'll state it again on my own comment as I commented on someone's "who uses Linux" comment: if you have an Android device? You use Linux every time you use your device. Android is a light Linux bit kernal system, and most devices with any kind of fully fledged OS use some form of Linux bit kernal system. Linux runs all your game servers as well. It's one of the most heavily relied on OS's in the modern world.
Which is a shame, its so versatile and moddable most people will use some form of Linux their entire lives and never even know.
The difference between Apple OS and Windows platforms? Linux is free, and let's everyone use it's source code, and doesn't toot it's own horn about it. They just let everyone use it and never ask for any credit. So most of you don't even know your most likely on a Linux based system right now if your on an Android device, or almost ANY smart TV.
+Rorik Simpson So? It's not for the regular consumers...
Only if you assume that the average consumer can't learn or be taught how to program basic things for linux or just download other people's freely posted and shared content. And also, just on that second part, not only can you download things in a very Android app store reminiscent marketplace, but if you download it from the actual site it comes packed with a bunch of programs that MOST people use and it takes a simple Google search and zero programming knowledge or experience to do all sorts of cool crazy stuff with Linux.
I personally have a little more positive an opinion of the average person capacity to use Google and follow simple directions.
+Rorik Simpson Most people consider the average consumer to be someone who doesn't know a lot about computers and just uses it for taxes and for their job. I use Linux on my Chromebook because Chrome OS is complete and utter garbage. But Windows on my main PC. Coding is something that most people don't take interest in as it is extremely complicated for the stuff they probably want to do. In terms of programming, it takes time and I doubt somebody has the patience to go through a bunch of UA-cam tutorials just to do one thing.
Linux isn't a bad OS. It just doesn't have a user friendly GUI. That goes to Mac OS. Windows is not that confusing but still might be. Also, a bunch of games aren't on Linux. That's the gamer aspect. For a gamer, Linux and Mac are complete garbage for gaming.
Linux is only good for the more experienced. That's my opinion. But I still respect yours.
The main reason why I feel Linux is average consumer friendly is any more it's less embraced the Android appearance and feel so really as long as someone can use a modern Android cell phone they can use modern Linux. Between the new App store, all instructibles included, and Google and UA-cam you don't have to have any programming experience or anything. I got my brother to try Linux, he's what would count as your "average consumer" and I didn't actually have to show him how to do anything. The Linux site explained perfectly how to install it 4 ways from Sunday and once installed it came with manuals that popped up and explained everything he needed to know. 20 minutes and a Google search later he was running Windows programs on his own, no programming, no setting tweaking, just open the app store, identify the app he needed, install, run.
you tipe lon time
My younger brothers saw me playing a DVD on my PS2 and they had no idea it could do that.
who else san sandreas game always froze?? and currently playing vice city

You can also perform a Progressive Scan on some games, pressing Triangle and X as the games starts.
My favorite feature is that it can play compact discs. I still have my slim line and i still play it to this day
I'll never thank my grandpa enough (RIP) for buying us this console... What a great masterpiece.
My favorite feature was it could be yellow and sold off for $20 just to stay alive, good times.
I got a silver PS2 slim. I don't use it as much as I used to, but it's still amazing.
And this is why I still have my ps2 and will never give it up !!!
U get a dislike for your lying thumbnail
fortnite isn't a game that you get via disc and ps4 games will never be playable on ps2 you should know that everyone knows that and if you don't you need to seek some help
Why do the rendered polygons look so smooth in this video? They look better here than I remember. Especially GTA San Andreas.
And Dark Souls...
Or maybe PCSX2
I remember taking my ps2 to my grandmother´s house so I could play games AND watch DVDs. The fact it could be used to play DVDs was a good excuse to bring it.
Speaking of playing movies. Even though I don´t play with my PS3 anymore, my father still uses it to play Blu-ray movies.
It’s weird cause my mom had no problem with me having gta San Andreas but then when gta 5 was new she said i was too young lmao
I always like seeing towers on the PlayStation 2 startup screen because that's what makes it very unique and creative, unlike many other video game consoles. I have the North American NTSC SCPH-30001 PlayStation 2. Good job!
I got the same model
Roses are red
Violets are blue

I HATE fortnight and i watched the video because of the title
I’m getting one again,the other one I gave it to my cousins but now I’m getting one again!
I'm guessing one of those things I didn't know my ps2 could do was not recognize a blueray disk as it enters the disc tray. Brilliant thumbnail Baity McBaiterson
Something else that's not well known about PlayStation 2 is it came with military grade Ram
Christopher Irvin military grade is made in China stuff...its no better then Walmart,s stuff...!!
Rambus. The same kind of RAM the Pentium 4 was recommending. Now how expensive it is for PCs...
As the ps3 came, i was wondering why no one made advertisings mention that it was the cheapest blu ray player at that time, so they could sell more consols...
Because it's price was 600 dollars at the time
Yep and the price for a blue ray player was 900 - 1,1 k, the ps 3 was much cheaper.
But still PS3 was expensive at that time. Not everyone could buy it for such a price.
the reason was because Sony got super cocky after the ps2 sold super well and very vaguely advertised it with disturbing confusing commercials thinking “well they all liked ps2 so much so they’ll have to buy this.” it sold poorly at first and later on to save it then they started taking marketing it seriously but it definitely gave Xbox 360 a huge head start for the generation
perkypears Nope, they were very expensive to make. Sony lost money for every console sold, so I'd say they were a bit generous though still expensive.
I went from ps2 to ps4 :)
