I\'m bored and this forum is a bit dead at the moment so here\' somethin a bit different.
I got my PS2 when it was released, it cost £300. I bought a memory card for £25, 2 extra controllers for £40, a multitap for £30, DVD region x for £20, AR2 for £30, vertical stand for £10, rgb cable for £10 and many games, listed below:-
SSX - £45
TTT - £40
ISS - £40
Timesplitters - £45
Crazy Taxi - £40
Formula 1 2001 - £40
Red Faction - £40
GT3 - £45
RE:CVX - £40
GTA3 - £40
Pro Evo Soccer - £40
Bond: AUF - £45
TM:B - £40
THPS3 - £45
J&D - £40
Wipeout Fusion - £40
State Of Emergency - £40
MGS2 - £45.
(The game prices are the rrp, not exactly what i paid cos i got them from amazon etc)
In total, that amounts to £1215 (british pounds)
That is equivalent to approx. $1825
That is a $hitload of money!! I never really noticed until i just added it up. I\'m just wonderin how much the rest of you have spent, i\'d like to know the average amount. The poll is in USD as there are more americans on the boards than other nations. Tell us what u spent all your hard earned cash on too!!
P.S - Hint for UK people, to convert £ into $, multiply the amount in £ by 3, then divide that by 2
-
unit was 300$ + 40$ memory card + 35$ second controller
thats 375$ base
i never paid more than 20$ for all my PS2 games except for FFX
i have 11 games so thats 220$ + 45+
375 + 265 = $640 + tax
-
\'bout $1350.
-
I\'d probably say with the PS2 included $600-1000. I have I think 10 PS2 games oh well guess I have a lot more than $1000 in PS2 merchandise.:D
-
i have 20 plus games and only played half price for 2 of them
Timespltters £20
and Ring of Red £20.
the rest where full price.
Geeeeeeeessssssszzzzzzz i must be some kind of PS2 a Junkie ;)
and yeah that was me that clicked on the $2100 Plus one

I\'m supporting my PS2 habit and my a good portions of my stewp-sons so I\'d say somewhere in between the $1500 - $2000 range
-
I estimate about $1,710..
Damn.
-
I got 21 games a memory card and 2 controllers...and of course the system!
So thats around $1500 :eek:
-
ive voted in the wrong section, i didnt relise i had to put the machine in aswell, i got 14 games so far, just say each was £40, then got a dvd region x= 15, scart=10, memeory card = 30, comes to about £915, but theres is most proberly something i forgot
-
id say at least 1500 - thats a big at least
its most likely somewhere around 2000 though
i have 4 controllers - 2 mem cards - 15 games - rf adapter in case of friends house - multi tap - surround sound for it
the list just keeps going
pretty hefty price to pay for a system - i figure thats why i cant get another one - but my friend said if i can get his xbox online with halo he will leave it at my house since he doesnt play it but he wants to play halo online very bad and i have the cable modem - so im trying to do that and ill have me a free xbox :p
-
800 dollars + tax on games alone!
plus 320 for system...
$1,120 + tax!
Wowza! No wonder I\'m poor! That\'s strange though... It never seemed like I spent that much! I dunno how I squeezed out so much money... Guess I should get rid of those oldies...
-
System-300$
Multitap-40$
Controllers-105$
Games-400$
Memory Card-35$
Total=880$
-
around 700 pounds but it hasn\'t been a month since i got the whole lot yet!!!!!!!
By the way, whats that multiply by 3 and then divide by 2.....?
Didn\'t you go to school mate? Simply multiply by 1.5 and you\'re done....:o :o :o
-
I voted $300-600 but if I counted the extra controllers,4-way adapter and the 3 games I just sold that would definitely put me around $700.

ya well that can be tough for people to do in their head some time.....why not just take half of the number and add it to the original eh? works too......
O ya, i have spent about $1200 canadian on my ps2....if you wanna convert that to american dollars divide it by 2 billion...

PS2 bundle with GT3- $330
Extra controller- $35
A memory card- $35
MGS2- $45
MGS2 guide- $5
FFX- $50
extra av cable- $10
Around $510 bucks plus taxes. I am kinda upset because I bought the same extra rca cable because i thought the one comes with the box doesn\'t work right because the tv screen is too dark. It does that with my new av cable too. part of it has to do with the tv and ps2. I am a RPG freak and I am waiting to see how Xenosaga turns out.
