I kinda knew what to expect, but the first thing out of my mouth when I took it out of the box was "Holy shit, it's tiny." And it really is. Here's some size comparison relative to two phenomenal DVD cases.

And as you can see, it's flush with the height of 2 standard DVD cases.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

thats not a TV! Thats a microwave! BAIL OUT!

 

[Wario64]

BUY A PSTWO

 

[Suikoguy]

Thank you for posting these pics!
I was curious at the comparison of a DVD case.

I want one.. but I don't need one... Blah!

 

[fse]

Wow....

 

[TTP]

You should put the Xbox and the PStwo side by side. That would be fun.

 

[keeblerdrow]

Can do. I'll do a size comparison of all the major systems, if I can fit it.

I can also answer any questions here, too.

 

[Catalyst]

I can't wait to try out my new PStwo on my microwave, either!

 

[Deg]

yeah cant wait.

 

[Wario64]

Is the new PSTwo less noisy than the old PS2's?

 

[Catalyst]

No seriously. Pop in a PSone game and debunk those rumors for us. Can you see if it has texture filtering and all that crap while you're at it? It'd be fantastic.

 

[Sho Nuff]

How much did you pay for it?

 

[keeblerdrow]

Here they are. I'm lacking my PSOne and my 50001 model right now (they're in storage) but here it is with its competition.

 

[Die Squirrel Die]

Oh no, I can't resist it's power of tininess.

 

[keeblerdrow]

Yes, the two is less noisy. I have a 30001 and a 50001 and it's quieter than both. I couldn't even tell it was on.

I got this for $150 at, strange enough, Gamerush. They beat out the EB/GS stores getting this.

I haven't had a chance to play a PS game on it yet. I'm thinking I might try out Tales of Destiny 2 on it. You still have to manually select the "Faster" and "Smooth" in the bios screen before putting in a PS game, though.

 

[Catalyst]

Wow, and all my friends were spellbound when I showed them a GameCube for the first time. I'm them right now. :O Pretty.

 

[cvxfreak]

:O

 

[GaimeGuy]

o_o

 

[AlphaSnake]

I'm so horny...oh, man.

 

[Truelize]

That's pretty sexy looking.

*me to a psTwo - "Hey. How you doin?"

 

[Spike]

Does it have a fan?

 

[Mason]

Damn, that thing is tiny!

 

[evil ways]

How much credit are game stores giving out for the old PS2 again?

I'm gonna try to get one of those sexy beasts.

 

[Catalyst]

I want an indigo PStwo.

 

[Kiriku]

Yes, the two is less noisy. I have a 30001 and a 50001 and it's quieter than both. I couldn't even tell it was on.

I got 50004 (the noticably upgraded PS2 model), and I can't imagine it being anymore quiet than that. You can't tell it's on either.

 

[MutFox]

I wanna see a PSTwo beside an X-Box Controller...

 

[keeblerdrow]

There's no discernable fan. But there's a vent straight back from the controller ports.

Gamerush is giving $85 for old PS2s.

 

[Toshin]

I thought I saw a fan on another thread going around with a pic of the insides

 

[kiryogi]

You still can with CD games D:

 

[Sho Nuff]

PStwo let me modchip you!

 

[Pedigree Chum]

Damn you! My EB isn't getting in for a week according to them (damn EB Canada's).

I envy you

BTW, If anyone gets it at their EB Canada tell me, so that I may bitch them out.

 

[neptunes]

there is a fan

and keeblerdrow, check and see if swap magic works

 

[aerofx]

These are out already? That was fast.

 

[Kiriku]

You still can with CD games D:

Isn't that mostly because of the disc spinning rather than the fan though?

 

[Pedigree Chum]

Haha, this thread is free PSTwo advetising for Sony.

 

[hgplayer1]

this has the potential to triple PS2 sales!

a lot of gamers are slobs and will be losing this thing at least once a month

 

[Pedigree Chum]

Isn't that mostly because of the disc spinning rather than the fan though?

Yup, probably the same with the PSTwo.

 

[Wario64]

Someone on the cheapassgamer forum found a Toys R Us selling the new PSTwo, if anyone wants to check

 

[Suikoguy]

Hahahaha, Its the new Excuse!
Its not about DRE's, people just LOST them, muwhwhaha

 

[Pedigree Chum]

Too bad I had to trade-in games to pre-order the PS2. I can't just check around for the system, I'm bound to my EB Canada. FUCK!

 

[neptunes]

forgot to ask...
Is the boot up GUI the same? (menu etc..)

Just wanted to know, seeing as how they changed it for the ps0ne.

 

[TTP]

[Dead]

anyone know what Gamestop and EB give for a used PS2?

 

[Baconäger]

Gah, now I have to get one.

 

[Suikoguy]

anyone know what Gamestop and EB give for a used PS2?

Gamestop was giving $85 as of Tuesday

 

[TekunoRobby]

I want one.. but I don't need one... Blah!

I know, I'm in the same goddamn boat. I REALLY REALLY want a new PS2 (top loading rocks you horrible monsters) but damnit I need a DS.

 

[truesayian]

What do they give for Xbox's?....



I need to preorder my DS.

 

[Pedigree Chum]

Don't fight it, you know you want to upgrade.

 

[truesayian]

No way i wanna downgrade to that...I cant looks my hard drive support...

 

[Nintendo Ate My Children]

Minor question: Is there a cool blue LED light like on the old PS2s? Or any light at all?
