yalP are taking pre-orders for the 56k version,they have a list of games that will be using it and a picture of the modem fingy!
Anyone pre-ordered it? I thought when the PS2 goes online it was going to be broadband only?
Maybe I didn't read it properly.

I'll wait to see how mcuh it'll cost to play online etc first.
Me too because i have heard different things about the costs some people say you will have pay individual payments for each game you play and some say its just one payment at the start so i will wait and see...
Well that can't be right because Sony clearly stated that the service will be available to only Cable and Broadband users. This is to prevent 56k users slowing down the system, something which is becoming a problem in the US. So, erm? :-S
it could be fake?
They could be basing their description on the US version and assuming that the UK unit will be the same.
Last I heard, the UK unit was "unlikely" to feature 56k, but it wasn't 100% certain.

I dont think Im gonna bother with online gaming at all now. I was thinking about it for a little while, but nothing beats just having a few mates round with a multi-tap.
Not yet.
They havent release enough info about pricing and stuff.

I don't think I will get one before anyone else. There's bound to be problems that need sorting out, and so I'll wait before I make a decision on this. I'm not too happy about paying to play, either. It's a moral thing. The prices are bound to be terrible at first, just like the Internet as a whole, and it'll be ages before they drop. I don't like it, I don't like it at all.
Let someone else be the tester, buy one a month after launch !, I can't see them being out of stock at any time.
