I sold my regular PS2 a while ago but Im thinking of getting one of these new mini ones so I can play GTA San Andreas. I've heard they are released on November the first. What I want to know is, is anywhere taking preorders for themyet? and at what price?

Edit:- seen as you all think im asking about GTA, im NOT. I know where and when I can get that. I want to know about the actual console.

im pleased you see it my way. all that hastle lol. you do make it sound good but i would rather just stick with a PAL. it just seems to make sence. plus you can buy or browse games in UK shops which fills in a lot of time for me fortunatlty

Yes, buying games for £20 SEALED is so annoying, especially with that massive 3 day delivery drag and all the custom charges that are waved, not to mention the fact I mainly deal with a UK supplier but on the odd occassion I have dealt with extremely helpful American's who do everything they can to ensure a smooth transaction.

Ignorance is bliss.

surely thats more auckward really. u could just get a PAL one and get that thing that lets you play NSTEC games. buying things in dollars must be annoying. and the worst thing of all is buying from americans

Why would I want to? The US has a FAR better selection of games, games that aren't shat on when they are ported over with borders to make up for the change in frequency and games that will never see the light of day over here. Two that spring straight to mind that are worth the admission price alone are...

Xenosaga
Xenosaga 2

The former I have finished but the latter I can't wait, the finest console RPG to date.

But the PStwo doesn't have space for an HDD or NA.

So no ethernet for you then.

EDIT: Oh it comes built in.

Sorry.

Thanx for that. I didnt know it was called the PStwo. Thats probably why I couldnt find it.
