I DID IT!!! WHOS THE MAN? WHOS THE MAN? HAHAHAHAHAH WOOHOO!!! KISS MY A$$!!!!!! AHAHAHAHHAHAAHHAHHAH!!!! YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!
For those of you who don\'t know what that pointless rambling was about, it meant THAT I FINALLY GOT MY PS2!!!!
See, my dad got home from work, called the local Target and I\'ll be d*mned they actually had some. 4 to be exact. So he heads down there and returns 20 mins later with 2 shiny blue boxes. He sold the other one to a friend in work.
Actually I got it on wednesday, I just have been to pre-occupied to get on the net, and the computer for that matter. I apoligize for my lack of posting lately, I\'ve been really busy.
Anyway back to the subject. I have only one game for it so far and that is TTT and it ROCKS!! I tried Smackdown 2 with the texture smoothing on and d*mn! it was alot better. Same with Metal Gear Solid. I\'m gonna buy some more on the weekend but am not sure which ones. I\'ve got my eye on SSX and maybe Armored Core 2. I\'ve heard alot of great stuff about SSX and while the magazines seen to say that AC2 is crap, all my friends say its great. Can anyone make some suggestions? Thanks.
P.S. Got any ideas for a pic?
:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

Lucky Bastard, i still don\'t have one :crying:
-
sorry man
I though I was the last person in the world to get one.

Ok, um now I got a question. My PS2 vibrates as others had complained about, but not very much. Only while its first starting up. Not only that, but sometimes I hear a sound that sounds like the disc is slipping, you know that scraping kinda sound. But it only happens with Tekken Tag Tournament, not on any of my old PSone games or even on DVD movies, maybe I\'m just overreacting but I just got that d*mn thing and would kill myself if it got wrecked.
-
Congrats... :D
-
ok thanks but whats wrong with it?
-
Which should I get, UT or TS? Should I get RRV? Please recommend some games.
-
Glad to finally hear that Solid Snake 88.
I don\'t have mine... but i\'ll have it in 2 days :)( i hope).
PS: sorry, JC632X. I really can feel your pain :(.
-
Congratulations. Does that mean we won\'t be seeing any more of your weekly "I wanna PS2!" rants?;) Or will you be yelling that about the games now? Speaking of which - get some more games! Especially TS, Madden 2001, and DW2. You cannot go wrong with these games. Cogratulations once again, and have fun gaming.
And to everyone who\'s still looking - don\'t give up! They\'re out there somewhere!
-
My PS2 died on me and I sent it to the Sony Service Center in Irvine, California. lol..
But Snake, I heard that Timesplitters is much better than UT.. Ridge Racer is pretty good, but the tracks are obviously mostly the same as previous games in the series, just with some slight changes.
Other good games are DOA 2: Hardcore, Dynasty Warriors 2 (wohoo!!), and Madden
-
hey JC632X, don\'t feel to down, your day will come. if it makes you feel any better, i am also still waiting for my PS2, because the US PS2 here is still about 720$ with no games! i won\'t pay more than 400$ !! , in addition i don\'t know if a US PS2 is better or a UK PS2 because of the DVD region codes problem..
-
thanks guys. I appreciae it. but you didn\'t answer my question. is there anything wrong with my PS2?
P.S. From now on I will say: "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PS3 NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
hows that sound? how about "MGS2 NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" (j/k ;))
Should I get AC2?
-
as for your question, I can\'t be sure since I didn\'t get the chance to hear it meself, but me thinks yuor ps2 is doing just fine, mine makes th same sound, it just has a very loud cd driver.
play now, worry later, as long as it works properly you shouldn\'t worry, and might something happen, you can\'t do a think about it, if it happens it happens
-
If you have TTT, i recommend you a game with a good durability. It\'d be SSX if you live in USA and Rayman Revolution if you live in Europe. They\'re the best games right now IMO( with TTT).

About your PS2 problem: you have probably noticed the difference between the PSX CD-ROM speed and the PS2 one. I\'ve said that cos you don\'t notice that sound with the PSX games and the DVDs( when the PS2 reads the data at lower speeds). Anyway, check that your games are ok to be totally sure.
-
thanks. i\'m in the USA.
-
Boo!
Congrats on getting your PS2, enjoy!
-
I\'d say pick up SSX. You can\'t go wrong. I still cant put down that friggin\' game. It\'s almost as addicting as Tony Hawk, if not, MORE ADDICTING! :D

For some reason i though you already had a PS2, anyways, i had myne since October 26. Oh and TTT is a great game, i am finally bored with it though. Look at the bright side though, it took me 2 months to get bored with the game.

no there is nothing wrong with your PS2, mine does the same thing.
I am Playing AC2 for the 2nd time and I really like the game, but early on its very frustrating cause you feel so left in the dark on controls, the game doesn\'t gently throw you in there and you get your butt kicked.
For the record on AC2 is you keep losing mission and have -50k credits the game will give you free parts to help you along. There are like 5 free "LOSER" parts to get. I\'ve never gotten them, but they are there.
Also the game is truly about cutomizing your mech finding the killer weapons and kicking ass that way,
I really do like the game look at my sig.

Where is my PS2? :(

keep checking those stores, they are coming in faster now, it should prove easier.
My Kay-Bee toys has PS2 packages ready to go, and I have stumbled across 3 places in the last 2 weeks where I could\'ve picked up another.
-
:D
Am I the luckiest person or what. I\'ve got 2 PS2...this is so nice. I got my US version from the auctions (its the nicest place to be, everyday a brand new PS2 is auctioned for a very low low price) and the second one which is a UK version, i got from winning it on a sweepstakes.
I am so happy :crying:
Auctions Rocks!!! go to it if you want a brand new PS2 now!!
the best auction house is....i think is the one in Amazon, so go to
http://www.amazon.com
okay about that Question by Solid Snake 88.
Your PS2 is vibrating and rambling is maybe because you played it for too long. PS2 is a sensitive machine so take really good care of it or end up like the 15% of the people who has a PS2, Broken and can never be fixed.....
-
hahhaha hoho heeheh heyhey hey
OMG u guys have not got PS2s? hoho
i (australian) walk to me local games shop and see like 40 ps2s there lol not many games tho... grr!
-
congratz solid and do pick up SSX if you haven\'t already :)
hmmm.. I hope you enjoy your fun-machine!
I know I\'m enjoying mine... Timesplitters, here I come!
( Timesplitters is better than UT; as a console FPS anyway )
-
Today, at 4:00 pm, I walked into Best Buys, 1 hour later, I walked out, $150 poorer, and 3 PS2 games richer. I got SSX, Armored Core 2, and Fifa 2001. That makes at total of 4 games along with Tekken Tag Tournament. I had my eye on Timesplitters but decided to decline as it would have left me with like 2 bucks left. I might pick it up next week. :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D
-
hmmm.. now that\'s spending money :)
hehe...
Well, I spend every "buck" I get too; now that I don\'t have a thing I\'ll have to save some :D :D :D :D
-
"Buck" is American slang for "dollar".
