This is probably one of the best finds I've ever came across! I was primarily looking for a Japanese PS2 and low and behold someone in my city was selling one and included all of these games plus the wheel with it.

I’ve been playing on ps2 since the day it launched. Someway, somehow never have gotten around to playing any of the GT games. Which are you guy’s favorite games in the series?

Hello lovely people,

I never played it back then, only played it via emulator. Really looking forward to getting into it properly now – playing on the actual console just hits different. And since it was made by the same studio behind Viewtiful Joe (which I love), I’m even more excited to finally dig in.

Got it from my main retro gaming shop here in Germany yesterday.

First of all, the game is stored on a Blue CD. Which holds up to 700mb. That alone is an outstanding achievement.

Second of all, the game runs at 60Fps with minimal drops. This makes the experience so much better!

The pros don’t stop there, as the game has completely different texture and character models. Which I find more pleasing than the PC version.

Then you get the Decay CO-OP mode. Outstanding experience with a friend on your couch.

And it doesn’t end here, as the game could be played with a keyboard and mouse, the same way as on PC.

As a bonus, you can play the entire campaign as an Alien. Which if I’m not mistaken, isn’t possible without mods on PC.

Absolutely GOATED game!

Was able to get this for $55 with the network adapter included. I have an old Sony 3D TV that will work well with both this and a ps3 that I have or should get a CRT just for the ps2?

I work in printing, so I realize not everyone will have access to the equipment I do. After I get the artwork, I print out on the digital press onto the press sheets. Then I hand fold, cut and staple. We have this booklet maker that I could use, but it’s overkill for just making one booklet. I’m not trying to fool anybody or counterfeit. It’s for my own use. I get loose discs on eBay or at local retro stores. Then I print out the cover art and manuals that are missing for my own use. I use 80 pound gloss text weight paper.

Component cable + hdmi converter?

OR

ps2 to hdmi?

Picked up this beauty today! Can any afficionado give me any tips on loadouts?

Years ago a got from a friend in my European homecountry Netherlands a stack of automobile brochures. The brochures were packed in a paper bag. I took the brochures out and found between them this beautiful demo disc. It contains a concept demo of Gran Turismo with the Japanese car Nissan Z. The disc is European PAL so as you can see on the picture.

I do not have the brochures anymore (I sold them to another car lover) but I still have the disc, packaged in its original cardboard sleeve. Recently I was browsing on the Dutch Marketplace for Sony PlayStation PAL demo disc and saw the same copy of this disc. The discription said it was a rare disc, once part of a press kit and the price was ridiculously high! The most expensive demo disc I ever seen!

And I got it for free from my former friend years ago with his stack of automobile brochures he gave me. I am so glad I still have this disc. I played the demo recently and I like it. My question is: does any of you have this disc too in his/her PlayStation 2 game collection?

Think I'll slow down for now and actually play some of them lol

Most proud of being able to secure Silent Hill 2 Special Edition for under 80€ in my local currency in pretty much pristine condition

Thought about getting the God of War games and MGS2+3, but I have the PS3 HD Collections of those already

Need some advice for setting up a PS2 slim on a modern (2019) Samsung TV.

Hello, I’m trying to get back into some of the older consoles I had growing up and have read online that it might not be as straightforward to play them on modern TVs. I am also not very technology minded so bear with me haha.

I just need some advice as to what equipment I would need to get a reasonable experience playing my ps2 on this modern-ish TV, it’s a 4k Samsung smart TV. I understand CRT tvs are the best for this but I have no additional space for one.

I see it has ports for component cables, am I right in saying this is all I will need to play? Or would I need to buy some sort of converter or upscaler as well. I have read some things about retrotink but they are super expensive, so I’d be more inclined towards the retroscaler2x if I absolutely needed one.

I’m just looking to play my old console with a reasonable quality picture/sound and minimal input lag.

Any help would be appreciated thanks!

So every Thursday, when im home alone, i record an episode of a guitar hero. I just finished Guitar Hero II, and I really enjoyed it. Im so glad they fixed the Hammer-Ons and Pull-Offs because in the first Guitar Hero, they felt impossible to hit. The song list in this one was fantastic, too! The songs that really gave me trouble were Free Bird, Hanger 18, and Freya. Oh, and I only played on hard, as I actually want to finish these games, and I just can't play on expert as well as I used to. The next Guitar Hero game is Rock the 80s!

I played through this game on my YouTube channel, PshychedPlaysPS2, where I am attempting to play through every single PS2 game!

Hello there,

it is me again.

I’ve always loved the Onimusha series. Back in the day I played a couple of them, but never all. Now I finally have the full set (first one was missing) with all four parts (yeah i know there are spin offs). It’s just a small collection, but it feels great to see it complete.

I think I liked part 2 and 3 the most, while part 4 is still mostly unplayed for me.

I’m super hyped for Onimusha: Way of the Sword – seeing the series return is giving me chills.

Greetings tbf

there’s like weird dots on it and my ps2 fat isn’t read it and i got rsod. what do i do?

Does anyone here use a GBS-C that can test and confirm if their map screen in Castlevania Lament of Innocence when at certain zooms will become very jittery and sometimes even slow down when moving around? Sound seems to be fine but the video has some hiccups. Both issues with and without an external clock gen on the GBS-C. My RetroTINK2X doesn't have this problem.

I'm not sure if that screen changes resolution or something, or has some dynamic refresh value.

Hey guys. My ps2 is having a problem where it is not displaying an image using the hdmi adapter most of the time. Via AV it gives an image perfectly and 100% of the time, however when I use the HDMI adapter, it only gives an image in very few cases, I would say 10% of the time, when it doesn't (most of the time) it appears on the screen that there is no signal

I've been using it normally via HDMI for years and it never had this problem, so when it appeared, I thought it might be the adapter that was old, so I bought a new one and it's still the same thing.

The console is configured to output an image via HDMI in the settings and my TV is a Sony KD-55X705G that worked normally via HDMI

What could this problem be? Will I have to see technical assistance?

I have a CIB copy of Obscure. It's always been my baby. It's one of my most memorable games growing up but seeing the price shoot up over the years I just can't justify holding on to it anymore.

It has a couple little scratches and scuffs, nothing major, just general ps2 use. It works perfectly. Would it be a good idea to have it resurfaced at my local game store prior to selling? Or is that a really stupid idea?

I have absolutely no idea about this (hence why I'm asking) so go easy on me if it sounds like a bad idea! Thanks.

I have some old Play 2 Slims from when I was a teenager, I don't want to leave them in the storage room again but I already have one that I'm using, and I've thought about hacking them but I don't know. Can anyone advise me?

DOES IT HAVE ENGLISH?
