PlayStation 2 Console with Progressive-scan DVD...

Strengths: Reliable(never has died on me), backwards compatible with PS1 games, great game library, easy to use, good load time for most games, and great controller.

Weakness: Not compatible with all dvd movies which can be corrected for most dvds if you buy a PS2 remote control which comes with driver disk, trouble playing some PS games for a extended amount of time(4-5hr)

I have had the PS2 since the year it came out, and I never had to replace my system. For those that have read disc errors, most of it is caused by having your PS2 sitting horizontally. Also after using the system, I always turn it off. I have had the same PS2 memory card since I bought the system and has never died on me either. The only games I have had problems with the PS2 are playing some PS1...

PlayStation 2 Console with Progressive-scan DVD...

Strengths: Almost everything about this system is a strength. Its small, and its easy to setup. u can use your ornigal PS controllers on PS2. they r so easy to use, their not big and have buttons u don't use.

Weakness: some games(like 2 or 3 that i have played) have slow loading time

PS2 is a must buy is ur looking for a good system. yes gamecube is 50 bucks cheeper but u can't play older games from nintendo 64 on it, and u cant use the same controllers on it and u cannot play cd's(unless u have aminidisks). and u cant play dvd's on it. PS2 is a great deal for 200 bucks. u have a cd, player a dvd player,(which i heard isnt too good but it's great) a PS1 and a PS2. i dont see...

PlayStation 2 Console with Progressive-scan DVD...

Strengths: eveything

Weakness: loud fan noise

I don't see what the fuss is all about with this ps2,xbox,and G-cube. I think people should buy what they want or what they are looking for in a system. I liked ps2 so i bought ps2. I mean, I realized sooner or later that something better would come along but i dont complain because my ps2 make me happy. i like for new thing to come along so that the companies such as ps2 as well as xbox and the...

PlayStation 2 Console with Progressive-scan DVD...

Strengths: great games, plays DVD's better than any other regular player, works perfect since we got it when it FIRST was released

Weakness: none that i can see, i'm even buying my niece and nephew one for Christmas!

we own ALL consoles out there. this is the best, for games, music, AND DVD's. PS2 is faithful, much more versatile and games are better than ever. highly recommend.

PlayStation 2 Console with Progressive-scan DVD...

Strengths: great ease of set up, easy to use, fun, good graphics, and even more fun when shared. the DVD feature is a good asset, as well.

Weakness: the MEMORY cards short out quickly, espicially when playing the SIMS

the memory cards are too expensive since you nned a new one everytime you start a new game, and they can fritz out quickly; but other than that, i love my PS2!

PlayStation 2 Console with Progressive-scan DVD...

Strengths: Great games, graphics

Weakness: It broke, so did the consoles of all my friends, we bought ours during its first issue-MISTAKE!

The console quit playing games and DVD's altogether. Sony charged me $128 to fix the problem but for some reason did not charge my friend ONE SINGLE PENNY to fix the same exact problem- I requested for a supervisor from Sony service to call me which never happened.

PlayStation 2 Console with Progressive-scan DVD...

Strengths: Excellent entertainment. Great graphics.

I ordered this for my two children, and it is very entertaining. Age appropriate video games are what we are playing now. The graphics are fabulous and I recommend this system for the family.

PlayStation 2 Console with Progressive-scan DVD...

Strengths: The ability to play PSone games as well. User-friendly controller

Weakness: Why should I say any weaknesses? I love my PS2!!!!

The Sony Playstation family in my mind is a pioneer in the video game world. Everyone looks to see what new games are going to come out on the playstaion console. To me that is power to have the gaming world wait and see what you are going to put out next.

PlayStation 2 Console with Progressive-scan DVD...

Strengths: when it plays its great

Weakness: When it breaks out of warranty you have additional cost in a 300.00 dollar console. you must ship it out pay shipping,parts,and labor. wait for 30-40 days for return. i have two with same problems

The PS2 won't play certian, in some cases any DVD or games at a given time. I have two friends who have been expereincing the same problem with their PS2. Why aren't the PS2s made as well, or made to last like the PS1s? How many other people are having this problem? The bad thing is I have talked my friends into buying a PS2 only to have them become disappionted with the performance. The customer...
