Sony PlayStation 2 Slimline Console (Black)

from: Sony

October 29, 2004
I'm a true hardcore gamer, and this has a couple of great and unforgettable exclusive titles:
Metal Gear Solid 2 and 3
Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2
Spyro: A Hero's Tail

Try and grab that lot if you want this console. And at such as a cheap price, missing out is unforgivable.

Sony Official PlayStation 2 DualShock 2 Controller (PS2)

from: Sony

November 24, 2000
I've tried other controllers for the PS2, and in the end there is no other controller quite like the Dualshock 2. The buttons on other controllers often require quite a conscious effort to use them, but the Dualshock 2's analogue buttons are actually analogue - press lightly and you'll get one response, press a little harder and you'll get another, and so on. The Dualshock 2 seems to last as long as any other controller and is simply better quality, so there's no real competition there.

As for the usefulness of a Dualshock 2 now that the PS3 is out - the Sixaxis controller bundled with the PS3 doesn't have rumble functionality, and a Dualshock 3 with rumble and Sixaxis tilt sensors will currently set you back quite a bit compared to a ... Read More:

Official Sony PlayStation 2 Memory Card (PS2)

from: Sony

November 24, 2000
Ok so I HAVE had my PS2 memory card for a while now, but it has now started to act up.
A few months ago it lost all my Guitar Hero 3 data, so i had to do it again!! (not a huge problem as i love the game!) But seemed to work afterwards, thinking it was just a glitch i carried on using it but now it has failed again on GH3 and other games aswell.
I will be getting a replacement Sony card as they do last well and are better than other cards for the PS2 but be warned they can fail. (thats not to say they will though) :)

FIFA 08 (PS2)

from: Electronic Arts

September 28, 2007
It simply isn't. Even though it's meant to be.

The crossing is so awful that none of the players even seem to know what the box is, they'd rather smash someone's face in when they're sitting innocently in the stand. The shooting is frequently off target. I find I'm actually more acurate shooting outside of the box than inside of it. It just seems, poor, comapred to it's PES counterpart. It appears harder to actually play...and that;s only when you can get it to play.

I have it in my collection. But It'll never let me play it. In fact, I've played one game in an hour and a half today. Officially the crashes are winning 4-1, because in that hour and a half I've had to turn the damned computer off FOUR times. Great for patient people, ... Read More:

The Simpsons (PS2)

from: Electronic Arts

November 02, 2007
I only have one complaint about The Simpsons Game, the graphics, they are absolutely appauling. This is the reason I gave it 3 stars, but apart from that, this is a really good game, just be warned about the graphics.

Final Fantasy XII (PS2)

from: Square Enix

February 23, 2007
There had been some negative reaction to the new battle system that replaces the traditional Final Fantasy random time battles. But when you get used to it, you will find that the new system works very well and is much faster, less repetitive and overall better than the old method.

On top of the refined battle system and improved graphics, the game is absolutely massive. The average player will probably need to put in at least 60 - 70 hours to get through, but to fully explore the world of FFXII and complete the numerous optional side quests and hunts will take over 150 hours.

While the game play and graphics have evolved from the previous Final Fantasy games, it FFXII's story that surprisingly is its biggest weakness. The plot itself isn't ... Read More:

Lego Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy (PS2)

from: Activision

September 10, 2006
This is the most fun I've had with a game for ages.

As one old enough to have been around for the original cinema releases, I still get a special kick from these Star Wars games. And this is by far the one that generates the most smiles.

The humour is excellent. Subtle, and rather silly.
The action is good. Lightsabres, guns, jumping, double jumping, using the force, blowing things up, jumping in vehicles - all good stuff.
The graphics don't let it down. But it's the sheer wealth of content that makes this stand out from the crowd. So much to do. And then re-do to get those elusive mini-kits and bricks. So many things to unlock, buy, use, explore. All the while having a good chuckle and getting stuck into ones favoured characters.
