Because people want to use the PS2's online service. After all, look at all those awesome games you could play online that XBL doesn't have, like... uh, Killzone... Socom...Quote:

I'll get a new PSTwo, because my old one won't play blue backs, and I'm two damn lazy to go in and fix it AGAIN.
I have a launch PS2 that works perfectly. My sister-in-law and her husband have two PS2's, both of which crapped out on them. (One dead, the other plays some games and DVDs but not others.) They don't have a regular old DVD player, either, so I might give them my old PS2 and buy a PSTwo.
theres arent less chips, the chips they had are smaller. and when i first got one the thing could almost fry and egg on the non dvd drive side. a lot of others at the same time posted in my thread stating the same. mebbe you got a good one but that doesnt mean its the only answer.Quote:

Fortunately, lock-ups are extremely rare, but they do happen.
"The new PSTwo has no problems running blue backs, is less likely to overheat"
The hell magic PSTwo did you buy? My ex-roommate's was a furnace
my first PS2 died in less than a year, but I'm going on 3 years with my current one, with no signs of death anytime soon.Quote:

You mean other than the huge amount of storage for games and extras, right?Quote:
