Product Description MODEL- 97064 VENDOR- SONY PLAYSTATION FEATURES- PlayStation 2 Compact System- Charcoal Black Smaller, Slimmer and Network Ready PlayStation 2! While inheriting the basic functions and design philosophy of the current PlayStation 2 (SCPH-50000), the internal design architecture of the new redesigned PlayStation 2 computer entertainment system (SCPH-70000 CB) model has been completely overhauled, resulting in a slimmer and more lightweight form. Internal volume has been reduced by 75 percent, overall weight has been halved, and thickness trimmed down to 2.8 cm (thickness of current model is 7.8cm). Its size is almost as small as a hardcover book, making it easier to carry around. Equipped with an integrated Ethernet port for network gaming, the PlayStation 2 sets new standards in the fusion of design and functionality. Approximately 40 percent of North American PlayStation 2 online gamers use dial-up connections and to satisfy this base, the North American model is equipped with both Ethernet and modem ports. Includes PlayStation 2 console, Analog Controller (DUALSHOCK 2), AV Cable (integrated audio/video), AC Adaptor (AC power cord included). -- SPECIFICATIONs ------------------------------------ CPU - CPU : 128-bit CPU System Clock Frequency : 294.912 MHz Cache Memory : Instruction: 16KB, Data: 8KB + 16 K (ScrP) Main Memory : Direct Rambus (Direct RDRAM) Memory Size : 32MB Memory Bus Bandw

PS2 Slim Console     Posted 27 March 2007 Sony Playstation 2 Console Slim PS2
I ordered this to replace my daughter's broken standard PS2. This is much better with such a small footprint.
I just hope it lasts longer than they other one-the warranty and breakdown of all the game systems seems to have a strange correlation with the release of a new game deck. Anyone else starting to feel that way?
PS2 is Excellence     Posted 26 March 2007 Playstation 2 has kept the fun level up & the stress level down. It is good stuff.
A must have system for any hardcore or casual gamer     Posted 25 March 2007 I recently got a slim PS2. I had owned the standard PS2 system for a while before I eventually sold it and got this version, and this version offers tremendous improvements from its sleaker look and space convienence, to the ease of exchanging disks, to the built in online support. Now if you own the more clunky older version of PS2 and are fine with it I wouldn't put this slim version as a must have product, but unless you plan on picking up one of those new consoles soon (Wii, 360 or PS3) I would say it's something you should concider.
To anyone who has never owned a PS2 and have at least a casual interest in video games this product is simply a must have, and what it comes down to beyond anything is games. There are over 1,000 games that have come out for the American audiance spacifically for the system, and it plays virtually all of the over 1,000 games that came out for the PS1. I hear there are certain PS1 games that don't work with the system, but I have tried numerous games out and haven't had a problem. (Be aware that you need a PS1 memory card to save PS1 games and a PS2 memory card to save PS2 games) In the end the game variety will satisfy any gamer no matter what their tastes.
So bottom line owners of the original PS2 should concider an upgrade, but it's really a must have for those who have never owned a PS2 before. It offers something for anyone, unless by chance they just plain hate video games all together.
Slim Playstation 2     Posted 21 March 2007 Great price and the unit is really small.
Only comes with Composite connectors, no Component or DVI must buy that extra (not really an issue unless your screen is larger than 37" and you sit less than 8' away).
Comes with only 1 controller.
Comes without a memory card - need to buy separately.
On box picture the unit stands vertically, but the vertical stand is sold separately.
