They sure know how to juice a cash cow.

It's good for the consumer that they continue to support it, I bought a £300 PS2 back in 2000 and I'm still buying great new games for it now.

How much will this be? I suppose I should really own a PS2.

I am not trying to be awkward, but is there really any new good games they are releasing on the PS2? I don't keep up with the news on it

now if they could shrink it to a PSP size then that would be good.

the reason they arent doing HD is they are aiming it for russia and india so the majority might not have hdtvs

I think it's really just JRPGs at the moment. I know the missus keeps getting 'em delivered !

There are still more better games on the PS2 than on the the 360 or PS3. I play more PS2 games these days than new PS3/360/Wii games.

Think I'll stick with my old school PS2 with 320Gb hard drive fitted

Same here, I'm loving my RPG games on the PS2. Unfortunately the PS3 and 360 are lacking at the moment.

Long live the PS2.

Yep, they may not be "big name" games but they certainly deliver on the gameplay front.

Everyone goes on about how the 360 has a better back catalogue and PS3 better exclusives etc, well PS2 still poops all over both of them put together and in both areas.

There isn't, except for an internal PSU.

The is going to come across as being very detailed, but the CVG image is of the older SCH7x000 series. The SCH90000 is the newer model realease in Japn last November. You can tell the difference becuase of the new stand and bottom half of the PS2 being gloss, rather than matt.

You can google SCH90000 for much better images.
