Title: IS there any playability differences between models?
Post by: ps2fan92 on August 07, 2002, 08:45:26 AM

I just bought my PS2 last week,  It\'s model SPHC-300001.  I\'ve noticed that models 350001 and 390001 are out.  Is there any improvments?  Will I be able to get these improvments through a firmware update?  Thanks in advance.

the differences are miniscule and you gonne be hard pressed to update yer firmware (you cant)

why worry if you got a newer model?

Sony just put the CPU and the GS on a single chip (or something) to reduce production costs. That\'s all.

Not worried.  Just curious.  The model number on my PS2 also contained an r, i.e. SCPH-30001 r.  I heard that means "r"efurbished.  If that\'s true then I\'m worried.
