Revan Solo Posted January 26, 2005 Posted January 26, 2005 I have heart, that the drive of the newer PS 2 is bad. Is that right? I have never had problems with my PS 2 and you?
ET Warrior Posted January 26, 2005 Posted January 26, 2005 I don't own a PS2, but from what I am aware of there are no inherent troubles in the drives of the newer ones. The older ones I know had troubles if you stood the device up on end, the lens would become loose and unable to properly read discs. It's possible the new ones are screwed up, but I really couldn't tell you
Acrylic Posted January 26, 2005 Posted January 26, 2005 I have an old PS2, and a new slim PSTwo. Both of them work fine for me. Except my PSTwo works better, because it just does. o_0
Ranre Posted January 26, 2005 Posted January 26, 2005 In my opinion, why would u get another PS2 when ou already have one. It looks different whoop te do. But you would think that the newer one would go faster right.
El Sitherino Posted January 26, 2005 Posted January 26, 2005 The new Slim PS2 actually does read at a faster rate than the old one, and can read more reliably. I dont' have a ps2 drive, but I hear their very well made.

PS3 is gonna come out in Oct this year I hear, and that will be the new rage until they make another
El Sitherino Posted January 27, 2005 Posted January 27, 2005 I doubt the PS3 will be out this year. If anything it'll be spring release '06.
ET Warrior Posted January 27, 2005 Posted January 27, 2005 According to current news Microsoft will unveil the new Xbox they are hoping around holiday season this year. Sony's PS3 is expected mid '06.

But you would think that the newer one would go faster right. The slim line one has this network adapter at the beginning. For the older one you had to buy it. And the newer one is so small and light. And it looks better. (Has anybody seen that you can roll the Playstation emblem? )
RebelScum! Posted January 27, 2005 Posted January 27, 2005 Im a Gamecube person. Been loving nintendo since the 64 years;) Wamp_a Wampa
Revan Solo Posted January 28, 2005 Author Posted January 28, 2005 Isn't there a new console from Nintendo this year? Are there any pictures?
ZBomber Posted January 28, 2005 Posted January 28, 2005 You mean DS? It was released last year, and it's the "new" Gameboy. As for a console, I don't think so....
El Sitherino Posted January 28, 2005 Posted January 28, 2005 It's not the new gameboy. Why are people so foolish to keep calling it that? If it were the new gameboy, wouldn't it have gameboy in the name? yes.
ET Warrior Posted January 28, 2005 Posted January 28, 2005 Originally posted by ZBomber As for a console, I don't think so.... Not THIS year, but Nintendo DOES have a new console in the works. Release date is utterly unkown.
Ranre Posted January 30, 2005 Posted January 30, 2005 Yeah the DS wont have internet until mid summer. I think its a waist of money.
swphreak Posted January 30, 2005 Posted January 30, 2005 My sexy new PS2 runs like a dream. I have not had any trouble with it that I heard other people have (over heating, act.)
El Sitherino Posted January 30, 2005 Posted January 30, 2005 Originally posted by Ranre Yeah the DS wont have internet until mid summer. I think its a waist of money. Just because it won't have internet until mid-summer?
ET Warrior Posted January 30, 2005 Posted January 30, 2005 Yes. Obviously it's a waste of your money to get something that WILL eventually have the features, but doesn't have them NOW! NOW I TELL YOU!
Ranre Posted January 30, 2005 Posted January 30, 2005 Exactly, there must be 70 ppl at my school whom like to play alone these days on their DS. If they wanna get something they might as well get the better PS2 (of wich i think they have lol)
Mike Windu Posted January 31, 2005 Posted January 31, 2005 Damn you sarcasm...why couldn't Ranre detect you. *beats sarcasm with a stick* I think I'll stick with my old ps2 until the ps3 comes out. No sense in me going out and getting another ps2.

If they wanna get something they might as well get the better PS2 (of wich i think they have lol) DS = hand-held, PS2 = console. I think if they got the DS they want a handheld.
Mike Windu Posted February 2, 2005 Posted February 2, 2005 Speaking of ps2: my Star Ocean disc won't load. It loads when I don't have a memory card loaded and runs fine, but when I put in my memory card it screws up. I don't have a regular memory card: I bought this 8MB one that has to be loaded by a disc. Think the memory card is the problem? >_> And yes: DS is for on the go gaming. You can't carry around a ps2 in your pockets
Revan Solo Posted February 2, 2005 Author Posted February 2, 2005 Yes, the memory cards from other publisher than Sony do not run at every game. They aren't so high leveld at this time.
