Sony Playstation 2 Reviews

I waited. And waited. And waited. Everyone else was buying the PS2 and I clung on to my Dreamcast and PSOne for dear life, waiting for something that would make me go out and lay a couple of hundered pounds on the counter for a Playstation 2. But it didn't come. Days, weeks and months passed and nothing. Complete tripe such ...  Read the complete review

Right now is probably the most important time for someone to know the facts about gaming consoles, with the GameCube and the X-Box coming out. As yet those two are unknown quantities but we can speak about the Sony Playstation 2 as it has been around a while. I am one of the lucky few who managed to not only get a pre-order for a PS2 but ...  Read the complete review

...Sure the PS2, nobody calls it PSX2, was packed with hype and Sony over did it but the fact is the hardware is beautiful (I'm not talking about the casing although that is quite lovely aswell) and what is achievable with it is amazing! And the games at the moment aren't too hot i can tell you, but developers are just getting to grips ...  Read the complete review

“It all started on Monday the ninth of November 98, I had been on a trip with a few friends when I opened the door. There before me was a trail of blood on the floor and then around the corner lie my wife and daughter, dead, axed, left swimming in a pool of their own blood and my axe from the shed on the table. I dropped my bag and phoned ...  Read the complete review

Hi, about 6 months ago one of my mates picked up a playstation 2 for a couple of pennies and brought it round to show it off. To be honest I was not that impressed and when he left I plugged my original playstation back in and cracked on with that. Well how things change ! about 2 months ago I went out and bought one and I haven't played my ...  Read the complete review

On taking the console + equiptment out of the box - the console itself makes you realise that it was worth the wait + the investment. the console itself is very sleek ...  Read the complete review

When i first bought this console i couldnt wait to get home to try it, I picked it up with SSX, Summoner, Shadow of Memories and Orphen, along with a second controller. Well i must say that i was shocked beyond belief at the quality and the playability of SSX - the first game i plugged in as there had been nothing like this in a game ...  Read the complete review

Do you have a Dreamcast yet? No, seriously, for under a ton you can pick one up with a bunch of neato games and everything else you need to entertain you for a few weeks. If you couldn't guess from the opening, this opinion is not going to be overwhelmingly positive, so rabid Sony fanboys would do well to just rate this NU and be on ...  Read the complete review

I have had my Playstation 2 for coming up to 3 months now and don't know how I ever survived without it. I was put of at the initial launch by a combination of the limited numbers, lack of outstanding games and tales of the machine being rubbish. The last allegation couldn't be further from the truth. DVD playback is good on the ...  Read the complete review

Ahhh the playstation 2, the successor of the most popular games console ever! I have recently purchased one of these dream machines and it is simply fantastic! Some people compare this amazing entertainment machine to a tarted up playstation. I dont disagree with this entirely, sure the gameplay is similar, but the graphics are ten times ...  Read the complete review

I finally succumbed to the relentless advertising, the self created justifications and the insistent little voice inside my head. Despite what you might describe as financial insolvency I spent £400 on a Playstation 2 and the essential games and got to work ensuring my severe arthritis of the fingers in later life. This machine is brilliant, ...  Read the complete review

This may still seem a lot of money, and £200 is, but for the ...  Read the complete review

It's not secret that Sony's Playstation 2 is the most hyped console ever to hit the market, overshadowing the massively successful Nintendo 64 American launch back in the mid 90's. Sony had carefully tickled the gaming press, pundits and consumers with snippets of information regarding their 128 bit replacement for the ageing ...  Read the complete review

Like the previous console also this second edition astonishes for power and contained. To the normal power and beauty of game a system D.v.d joins to the height that alone justifies the price a bit heavy of the purchase, considering also the cost of the games . However the contents and the power are great for speed that for ...  Read the complete review

Before I go into the details of the system, one has to say that the Playstation 2 is a work of art. Not only does it produce beautiful, realistic graphics and an unbeatable gaming experience, but the Playstation 2 itself is small and compact, like the Sega Dreamcast. It has an excellent, sleek design that will impress the masses. You can even ...  Read the complete review

I recently acquired a Playstation 2 and it rocks! The first game I played on was Tekken Tag Tournament and I couldn't believe my eyes. It was fantastic. I was used to playing the PSone, which belonged to my nephew, and I couldn’t believe the difference. The games have awesome speed, sound and graphics. The actual box is a fair bit ...  Read the complete review

So the all-singing, all-dancing PS2 has finally landed on this little island of ours, even though its over a year old in Japan. Sony made a right mess of its release date over here, constantly revising its deadlines and then having the affront to limit its availability to pre-book only. As a consequence those that didn't reserve their Stations ...  Read the complete review
