So there's iLink and USB ports, so what? Does anyone know what you can use them for other than linking 2 consoles. When I bought my PS2 I was told I would be able to plug an Iomega Zip drive in and save my games to disk - what happened? Why can't I plug my HandyCam into the iLink port and record digital game footage? What is the point of these ports???

Almost forgot, a USB keyboard can be plugged in for adding codes to datels Action Replay cheat cartridge. A mouse can also be used for FPS games if they support it.

Also, the G-Con 2 gun for use with Time Crisis 2 and Vampire Night uses the USB port.

Some steering wheels use the USB ports. As for the ZIP drive, look here:

And if you did plug in your Handycam, what exactly would you record the footage to?
