This must be the original model

I seriously see the underlying message in this (i know, im a genius).

I mean doesn't everyone else miss the time when game machines were just for games, without all the extra useless hassle?

I know, it's been said like a million times over, but when was the last time you used your PS2 to play movies?

It stands as funny. But i never knew it was 4 years old, talk about foresight..!

Jam it back in, in the dark.

True, very true, but let's remember, when the costs rocket sky-high (as is the case here) some "extra abilities" just aren't justified any more, nor do they seem attractive.

Old news but i gotta say it, HOW ABOUT ADD-ONs that I choose to purchase to enhance my use of the console for everything that is NOT gaming . In other words, leave what's nessecery for the gaming intact, but spare me the useless junk that i would otherwise call "luxuries".

I need to stress that i'm not talking about the insanely high abilities of the Cell or the raw power of the Reality Synth. Those all add to the gaming abilities.

Hmm, now that i mentioned it, i think i don't know what i meant in the first place, but you get what i mean, no?

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Isn't that ridiculously expensive? 500 to 1050 something is a HUGE leap, what the hell is the reason? i thought preorders should edge on $100-200 difference max, which is still silly, but somewhat explainable given the peace of mind it offers. Or not.

Besides as far as i know some shops in KSA were forbidden from selling the PS2 at launch for higher than the release price + Shipping which they had to provide evidence of (They call it price control). Shouldn't there be an authority that stops such outrageous exploitation? I mean personal sales through auctions are one thing, but this is official rip-off at its best.!

How ya doing, buddy?

Are you sure you can?

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

my god...

1000+ people in a single que ...

Why can't i get one

I was speaking idiomatically.

looks like a 60% chance nothing even touched the ps inside, dragoon.

On an unrelated sidenote, is it just me or does the flow of games seem very low ? It seems like nothing is coming out and the whole lineup of launch titles is crappy.

What's the point in releasing the system early then? Just wondering.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Slayer how did you get it? i thought the shipment was all sold?

FELIPE NO
