8MB Memory Card (for PlayStation®2): $69.95 AUD ($51.4902 USD) ($68.1112 CAD) ($28.5929 GBP)

Gonna Have Some One To Play With??  Is That Why Ya Need A Second Controler?

Well I want a second controller for two reasons...

 

1. It's blue,

2. For when my friends come over or I'm playing it with my dad.

Ah...Makes Sense  :grin:

 

Anyhoo...Need Recomendations For Games??  :(

 

What Kind Would Ya Like?

Uhh, well I like racing games and uhh, lemme think... :assimilated::assimilated:

 

There is a really cool PS1 game a friend of mine has, I can't remember what it was called but I'll ask him. it was like this game where you were a jedi and it was set on Naboo in Episode I and you sliced droids and deflected there blaster shots and stuff. I'll have to ask him what it's called.

 

Anyway I like racing, stuff like the game I can't remember, uhh might like mario type games, I might like Zelda type games, uhh I can't think of anything else.

But it's late and my brain is like working at 50% efficiency. Come back in 11 hours. :grin:

I love my PS2. A great system, and I love the backwards compatibility (For Final Fantasy Tactics, G-Police, Colony Wars I thru III). Plus I love the GTA: Series.

 

:cool:

I have A Playstation 2, XBox and Gamecube. I like the Playstation more than the Xbox. But to each his own. I bought my PS2 before my XBox. And with the exception of a few games, Playstation 2 gets all of the good new stuff either before the Xbox or at the same time. But to each his own.

Everyone has a prefered console, I myself like the ps-2. I guess it's just brand loyalty and stuff. Plus it's the only system where I can play Final Fantasy...and I mean real Final Fantasy not Crystal Chornicles. Also my ps one games are still playble as well. But really you just have to find a system that suits whatever needs that best fits you.
