Advantages: Longs good, Light Weight and Good Price
Disadvantages: May have to order and wait for Memory card

I gotthis as christas present fro someone as the price was very very good. You can get the PS 2 almost everywhere now but it was very hard to find the silver version. The new Slimline version makes it very easy to carry and transport, it can be carried anywhere. The bargin i went for was based on the price, after shopping around i found that GAME sold the best deal - IN SILVER!!! For £114 i got the new silver playstation 2 with 1 joystick and 2 ...
...chose on and i got a simpsons game and a car racing game. Other games they were offering were fifa football and a fighting game. The onl down side to having the playstation 2 in silver is that the memory cards are limited, nearly everywhere has sold out. So if you do buy this in silver be aware you may need to order a memory card with a long wait! ... Read review

Advantages: DVD, high quality sound proccesor ( but ruined by games soundtracks)
Disadvantages: no wi-fi, bad graphics

Introduction The Sony Playstation is the second in sony's range of home consoles and DVD players and it promises better graphics, sound and gameplay than the first. The Graphics The graphics of the playstation 2 where highly raved about when it came out, however as am writing this review the Sony playstation 3 and the XboX360 have been released which make the PS2 graphics look shabby. In fact the PS2's graphics are barely on par with the Nintendo ...
...The Sound The sound on the PS2 has a lot of capability but they have been ruined by a large number of games which have a terrible soundtrack and it makes the Playstation 2's sound procceser sound bad. Range of features Other than ability to play games on the playstation 2 which is what most people will buy it for, it also provides you with a high quality (but annoying) DVD player. However, unlike the more modern Games Consoles you can't access ... Read review

Advantages: Easy to find, cheap, tons of games available
Disadvantages: none really

I owned a Playstation when they were new, I didn't buy mine right away though. Instead I was sensible and waited for a 1st then 2nd price drop when I bought mine in 1996. New games were still being released pretty much every week so you had a huge choice. I've had my current Playstation for over 8 years now having bought it off Ebay with a few games, a memory card and an extra controller for under £30. It was slightly damaged (the aerial input wire ...
...bit of tape to keep it in place. Games are easy to come by and just keep getting cheaper & cheaper. Extras memory cards & controllers are also still cheap and will work if you ever decide to upgrade to a PS2. The Playstation is a work horse, it has good and bad games but the good ones really make the best of its onboard hardware. Its cd player is one of the best around and is one of audios best kept secrets. Slimline PS1's or original chunky case ... Read review

Advantages: Good fun, cheap
Disadvantages: No new games available

I used to have one of these when i was younger and loved it then and have recently bought another one that both me and my partner still love even though the console is a good few years old, there are some brilliant games for it that are available really cheap from games shops including golden eye and f1 racing which are games i loved as a child and still love now. There is nothing what so ever complicated about the console and how it works compared ...
...get my head around. Value for money on the actual console was brilliant paid around £17 including 4 games for a boxed N64 in really good condition. The only downside is that no new games will ever be made for the N64 so you will have to keep sourcing second hand games. It does not have any internet features found in some of todays consoles but i don't see this as making it any less fun. I would definately recommend it to anyone that quality is ... Read review
