The ps2 is such a relic in the past. I remember hearing this coming out and thinking it was the most high tech console, and it’s crazy to see how it is 20 years old now.
man i just picked one up for £75 off an old guy, he said its been in storage since launch used a handful of times, fully boxed, its mint, hardly been touched, even the controller feels and looks brand new. no dust, no scratches, i couldnt believe it.
One big thing I'd recommend too is that if you're buying the console, try to also look out for game bundles where people are just throwing in a ton of extra games. Especially look out for some of the more expensive games in these bundles like SH2, could end up getting a total bargain on it going that route lol.

Play Maximo, my friend - that game was absolutely fantastic. Also Spy vs Spy and Klonoa 2 are all underrated gems. You seem to just be showcasing the popular games here.
Nice info Garrett! Love PS2 so much! This console is awesome! So great games... Kingdom hearts is so great game, its not my type of games, but this is so interesting and funny game! Love Killzone, Resident Evil 4,God of war 2,Call of duty:World at war, Metal gear solid 2, 3! And lot of great games!
got my slim for 40$ on market place with 2 controllers and 2 16 mb cards, took 4 months of looking and haggling but it works well and im very happy with it
I had ultimate alliance but I had the ps3 version. I think I might have to try and track the same down again and get another copy. I'm planning to get a ps3 super slim soon since my 40gb model recently stopped working.
I still have my SCPH-70012 slim model from 2004 and a SCPH-79001 slim model from 2007 as a backup after my cousin broke my original SCPH-30001R model from 2001 many years ago. Here's how I'd rank each original model based on reliability: SCPH-3900x > SCPH-5000x > SCPH-3000x R/SCPH-3500x > SCPH 3000x Here's how I'd rank the slim models based on reliability: SCPH-7900x > SCPH-9000x > SCPH-7700x > SCPH-700xx > SCPH-7500x

Amazing! Great deal
What is your own PS2 Buying list?
Where can i buy one from a reliable source???
CEX is always good in person, Facebook market place or eBay too just needs a good seller with lots of photos and lets you use it
