"IS the Playstation 2 to really worth spending 300 odd pounds?"

All im saying is that yeah the playstation 2 has a DVD in it, yeah it has the best Graphics any console has ever been able to produce but other console makers like Nintendo and Dreamcast will target this oppurtunity. They will bring out new consoles with better Graphics and better gameplay for a lot less than £300 making the Playstation a lot less popular for example the gamecube. If you think about kids these day dont have £300 lying around anywhere and there mum and dad arent just gonna give them £300 quid so my advice is either buy the gamecube or wait till the price goes down.

Just read my new topic on the PS2 forum. Then you'll understand.

If you are always going to wait for the best console, you'll never end up buying one! It depends on what you want.
I'd say i'd be best for now to wait a bit until some more games come out for it. If you can afford it and you'll get a lot of use from the DVD facility now, then go for it.

No its not worth buying it isn't as good as the PS and it costs so much.

too much!

toooooo much and there are no excellent games that stand out from ones I already have, I have a PS and with tip-ex it can become a PS2, also I will stick a second hand dvd player on the bottom and call it PS2, gibsoft have nearly finished a chip that allows the dc to play PS2 games!! oh I love gibsoft!

yeh where would we be without gibsoft...

apoc... do you know what gibsoft is?

For want of a better word, the PS2 is utter s**t.

But SSX is good. I mean the PS2 is ****
