I have a stack of PS2 games but don't have a PS2 anymore. Is it possible to find a deal on a console via ebay or am I better off buying somewhere else? The prices on ebay seem to go from so cheap it has to be broken to what I remember paying for a new one way back when. Since I haven't ever bought a used console I'm not sure what danger signs to look for when browsing for one on ebay.
i'm sure many of those ps2's on ebay are in good working condition. the ps3 has completely dominated, so ps2's are definitely cheaper. sucks that the new ps3's aren't backwards compatible. you can also try craigslist or gamestop for used ones.
PS2's didn't really crap out that often, look for stickers or gunk like soda stains. If the machines clean, it was probably loved and will last you a long time.
talking about ps2 i just found my shadow of the colossus copy! time to rinse this shit on hard mode haha

im just waiting for the ico/sotc rerelease on the ps3 coming up soon. should be awesomeness times a 1000
So I got a 360 again after Limbo was mentioned in this thread...ummmm...no words. That game is flawless in ways I can't describe, it had the same impact on me in the first 10 minutes that the original Super Mario Brothers did back in the day. I think i got up every three minutes and asked my girlfriend to come look, i was twitching and freaking out at the greatness. Im also back on COD4, fuck Black Ops
I just got: Mario Bros Wii COD:Black Ops Just Cause 2 Fallout 3 I don't know what to expect outa Fallout 3, it was not something I asked for but got but I'm interested. The rest I've dabbled in so it'll be fun to get into them. Also I'm Death Hugs on XBOX Live for those who want a "n00b" on their COD team. I mean I've played it, I'm familiar with FPS games, I just don't OWN it so I don' have crazy shit like remote control bombs and flamethrowers....yet.
Jamie played the hell out of Fallout 3, every time I've watched him play it though, it looks boring as hell to me, I just can't explore and crap in games like when I was 10, I want instant gratification. All the rest of those I've never really played.
Well it was a freebie so if it sucks, whatever. I hated Assassins Creed and got that for free too, so we'll see. I've played a demo of Just Cause 2, just mindless blowing crap up on a huge sandbox map with little story, I like that. CODBO may be all hyped but I had fun with it and I always love Mario in 2D form. What's everyone pumped about in 2011? - Bulletstorm - Batman: Arkham City - Portal 2 are what I'm hyping.
I'm Hyping the Nintendo 3DS and Diablo 3, might be waiting another year for both of those though... also the new Star Wars Old Republic looks really good
Batman Ico Collection Last Guardian (if it comes out) There will probably be some downloadable content I'll want, but usually I'm pretty light on the video games.
Has anyone played Amnesia: The Dark Descent yet? I watched a few youtube videos and gave the demo a spin and its a pretty scary game to play! I'm contemplating picking it up for myself to finish before the spring semester starts... You can download the demo here.
I still only play Red Dead but because of this extended week of Double XP I've finally reached level 50 5th Legend! High as you can go. What was the prize? Well the Zebra Donkey (which is blazing fast) and I'm able to play the old grandmother in her nighties. Guess it scares the nooobs on RDR.
Just finished playing Amnesia last night. I had two issues with the game but other than that, it was good. I liked it enough that I went ahead and bought Penumbra. -T
