Slimline Playstation 2

Advantages: Small, Lightweight, Looks nice, Cheap , Watch movies, loads of games, online gameplay
Disadvantages: Can break easily, Only 2 controllers,

...The ps2 is a great console although it is almost10 years old. It has alot of features that anyone can use with ease. On it you can watch Movies, Play games and also play online with people around the world providing that you can internet access on it. there are a wide variety of games available for it and they are also quite cheap. The playstation itself can come quite cheap with prices starting at £40 in some shops. You might also want to get some accessories for it such as the vertical stand, the eyetoy camera and the DVD remote if you want one. The only bad points about the playstation i would say are the fact that it is quite fragile and would break easily....

Sony Playstation 2 - Slimline : 'Gaming Giant'

Advantages: Sleek design I no fan : much quieter I No power back switch I Affordable I Wide range of games I
Disadvantages: The lid where you put the games could be stronger

...The Playstation 2 has sold in excess of over 100 million consoles since it was released back in 2000. When orginally released the Playstation 2 was much larger in size than the slimline version which Sony released in 2004. I am going to look into what are the benefits of the new system and look at the good and bad features. Good Features The Slimline Playstation 2 is much quieter than the original console because it simply looks much better, the slim design is better on the eye and also it is less noisy as the console does not have a fan. Instead it uses air vents to keep the console cool. It does the job to be honest because I owned the console for over 2 years and it has never crashed or overheated. The load times of the new console seems to me a little quicker than the original console. This is a main plus factor because you want...

HAS THE PLAYSTATION 2 BEEN ON THE ATKINS DIET!

Advantages: Smaller, quieter, sleaker
Disadvantages: Two controllers instead of one would be nice

...Maybe I?m showing my age here, but I remember one of the first games consoles there was, the Atari 2600, complete with its wood effect case and cartridge games! Since those bygone days many consoles have come and gone with battles being thought between the likes of Sega and Nintendo to be top dog in the world of video gaming. All that has passed before though is the mere under-card to the battle royal being fought here and now between Sony and Microsoft to be the undisputed king in the eyes of the joypad waggling generation with their Playstation 2 and Xbox consoles. When faced with the choice of buying one or t`other I came to the conclusion that although the Xbox was superior in graphics and potential exclusive games the PS2 was the only choice for the shear size of the back catalogue of games and strong support from third party...

PlayStation2 Slimline

Advantages: Smaller, Lighter, Quieter
Disadvantages: Flimsy Disk Flap

...I am sure you can tell from the name of this product, Sony PlayStation2 Slimline, that this product is alot smaller in size and shape to its bidder brother, The Sony Playstation2. This new design was released in September 2004 and overall, it is much prefered to its previous because of its weight, size, sound and mobility. In my opinion, the slimline model is much more attractive than the origonal one because it is so much smaller. The thickness of this product has been reduced to under 3cm which is almost one third the thickness of the older version. As a result, the PlayStation2 Slimline looks much more compact and in my view, the smaller the better. Furthermore, not only has the size of the product been reduced, but also te weight too, which again, adds to the appeal of the product. Overall the slimline version has lost half...

Slim Shady Playstation 2

Advantages: sleek new modern design, lightweight, built in ethernet port
Disadvantages: the lid where you ut the games in is a little flimsy

...After having purchased a standard sized playstation 2 console in 2001, I decided to sell my console on ebay towards the end of 2005 when the slimline playstation 2 console was unveilled to the world. Why did I chose to sell the console that had worked for the last 4 years, for a siver slimline playstation 2? The new slimline playstation two has been reduced in size from the previous version by 75%., the weight has been halved and the and thickness trimmed down to 2.8 cm, from 7.8 cm. Equipped with an integrated Ethernet port for network gaming, the new PlayStation 2 sets new standards in the fusion of design and functionality. The slimline playstation 2 has a new flip lid instead of the motorised draw. The flid lid is a little flimsy but I suppose there was no room for a motorised draw on the slimline version. Looks -wise...

PlayStation 2 Review By Vaza

Advantages: Small, loads of games and cheap.
Disadvantages: Small chance of overheating, but so does everything else.

...THE SOFTWARE The PlayStation 2 is the best console of it's generation and arguably the best of all time, with thousands of great games and a large back catalogue of PS1 games, you can always pick up a good game for a bargain. Just because the newer PlayStation 3 is out, doesn't mean that you shouldn't buy a PS2, Its at a cheap price and would cost you 150 pounds to buy the console, some games and get it hooked up online, whereas next gen consoles could cost up to 500 pounds (excluding the Wii, which would take about 250). What I'm saying is, it may be "last gen" but it's great, fun and best of all; Cheap! The PlayStation 2 is a must buy for hardcore and casual gamers alike, if you are casual, play EyeToy Play (camera and game costs 20 pounds these days). If you are hardcore, then God of War and Final Fantasy are great for you...

Review of Sony PlayStation Portable (PSP)

Playstation 3

Advantages: Easy to control
Disadvantages: Can't play normal dvds

...launched earlier because this is an excellent console. Maybe they had years putting the features. Playstation 3's media is Blu-ray Disc,dvd,cd and Super Audio CD. Its system storage is 2.5" SATA hard drive(20 GB, 40 GB, 60 GB, or 80 GB. The colours for Playstation 3 are black and silver, Playstation 3 is written in silver, some of the edges are in silver too(where you insert the disk) and the console is all covered in black. Black suits the Playstation and is more attractive than the silver, Playstation 3 can play DVDs, blu ray, music CDs and many more, this console is much more better than Playstation 2 and Playstation 1, Playstation 1 is crap and Playstation 2 standing out by the Playstation 3, Playstation 3 has a shorter name it is PS3 like it's written on the ps3.

Review of Sony PlayStation 3 (PS3)

<<< The Playstation's diet! >>>

Advantages: smaller, less noise, better features
Disadvantages: flimsy lid, silver style more expensive

...<<< Playstation History >>> Sony brought out there first games console in 1994 aptly named 'Playstation' which was competing against the likes of Sega's Saturn and Nintendo's Ultra 64. But with its sleek design it managed to become a serious rival for Nintendo and Sega and so it begins?.. A few years later after masses of sales Playstation introduced the analog controller more recognizable as the dual shock controller. The two analogue sticks give the player more control and built in vibration gives a more realistic feel to every game. The Playstation2 launched in 2000 and was a huge hit in Japan with sales hitting 1 million in just 2 days (blimey!) <<<What you get? >>> The content of the box consists of a surprising small console. I didn't actually realise how small it was! Also comes with one controller depends...

Review of Sony PlayStation 2 - Slimline Model (PS2)

Playstation 3

Advantages: Graphics, playability, blu-ray player!
Disadvantages: None

...I have been umming and arring over which colsole to buy, the Xbox 360 or Playstation 3. I had heard a lot of positive things about the Xbox, and I had also heard that graphics wise and gaming wise the Xbox was slightly better than the Playstation 3. However, I eventually decided to go for the Playstation 3 for several reasons. Firstly, and probably mainly, was because of the recent decision to cancel production of the HD-DVD format (a format which the Xbox 360 is developed to play), meaning that the Blu-Ray dvd format ( a format that the Playstation 3 is developed to play) will dominate the High Definition DVD market in the near future. Secondly, last year, the PS3's Blu-ray DVD player was voted best High Definition DVD player on the market. A DVD player that would have set you back over £250 to buy on it's own, but by buying...
