From the start everyone knew that the playstation 2 was the only one for them, that's definately what i think!

With it's lovely slick body and the it's name smileing at you if you have the playstation 2 everyone would want to play on it, but it would be your own property, and even a new member of the family to sit on it's own shelf to show it's power, the playstion 2 was mine!

In this part tell me about how you got your Playstion 2, when it was born a new member to your family!

well slaveunit, it also got out of touch with my playstion one mags, and i neva buy any anymore, but i dont really care now i've got a playstation 2, i realised how bad the games were that are comin out, and how bad the graphics were, why you sold your PS2 i don't know but otherwise, why do you care that your "out of touch" with the playstation?

I got mine nov 25th 2000 from dixons. When i got it out the box i could not stop staring at it. It was something that i had only seemed in a mag and when i saw it, it was as if a model out of fhm had jumped out of the mag....kinda.

I sold my PS1 a couple of years back now, and knew about the ps2 then and really fancied one, but when the PS1 sold I diddnt buy the mags anymore and got a bit out of touch.

I read in the paper a while later that the PS2 was taking preorders on the coming thursday (tuesday) and i was over my financial troubles and was saving for a new PC. I saw this and the next day I booked the friday (couldnt get the thursday) off so I could get a preorder. I drove round about 7 retailers looking for a preorder. Found one in the end, and got my PS2 on launch day, with SSX.

Nicely enough, because I was saving for a PC, I had loads of cash left over, and bought a new telly too.

Mine was a similar situation... I had just been to the bank to increase my over draught to buy a new stero and bro's bday pressie and while I was standing out side of HMV, a small bloke was putting a sign up above my head saying "PS2's in stock"... I was a sign, divine intervention, so in I strolled with Visa in hand, 2 mins later... out I came with my little box of joy!!


Spooky... we share the same desinty, though only 13 days out of sync!!

I got mine on January 19th, funnily enough also out shopping for MY brothers 21st (which was 2 days later), no-where had any for weeks in my little city, then a shop called MVC put a big sign up saying "PS2s in stock" I was in there at the time buying something for my brother. I said to the cashier "bit of a bold boast isn't it?" she said "not at all, we have some in right now!", they only had 4 in, but non on pre order so it was first come first served.

I strolled out of there and returned a few minutes later with £300 cash in hand, slammed it on the counter and said to the nice lady "Oh, I think you know!"

She scuttled off, then returned with my pal PS2!

I got mine on the 6th January 2001 from HMV.

I was actually shopping for my little brothers 21st birthday present and got slightly side tracked... Ran round to tell the wife of my awesome purchase and rushed home to play RR5 and Timesplitters... Didn't get my brother anything in the end either!!
