I work in Tv and found this stuck in an old house today. Legends

Any must haves I should pick up? Or what's your favourite out of what I've got?

So, here in the UK Vice City Stories goes for £25 at the most known used shop, CEX. They had loads of these in stock recently. Suddenly I started to see people selling Vice City stories for well over £100 with the map and manual which is wild when I was lucky enough to pick up my very good condition one for £25 at CEX recently. Anyway, suddenly loads of these popping up for extremely high amounts of eBay and Vinted and then in the space of a few hours, CEX has gone from tens and tens of these in stock to just 2 left (might be that they can’t sell these last 2 online due to condition). So, going forward Vice City Stories looked like it is going to be an expensive one to pick up, all from a few wild sell prices and likely some GTA 6 hype

The right one also is missing the holes completely lol

I recently got a fat SCPH-39001 and i’m planing to get the network adapter for it along with a HDD. Before I buy anything, will any HDD work or does it need to be specific?

Hi everyone, I recently bought an ElectronPulse HDMI adapter for my PS2 Fat.
PS2 games work perfectly and look great, but when I play PS1 games, such as Resident Evil 3: Nemesis, the image continuously rolls vertically up and down and never seems to sync properly.
I’m using the PS2 with component video (YPbPr) into the ElectronPulse, then HDMI to my display.
Has anyone experienced this with the ElectronPulse and PS1 games? Is this a 240p/288p compatibility issue with the display, or is there something I need to change in the PS2/ElectronPulse settings?
Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

Went back to PS2 roots and building collection again. Had to start with my first game ever NHL HITZ ‘03

Untested and desperately in need of a scrub down BUT ended up fully working. Ace deal?

Hey ya'll,

I've been doing a weird series where I've been looking at how different genres used to sell themselves on their back covers, and this week I'm covering PS2-era platformers. (And yes, I technically know Psychonauts came out on Xbox first, but I played it on PS2 lol).

It's pretty damn niche, but if you think you might find it interesting, check it out. Each one of these games is an absolute banger regardless on if they botched the back cover: https://nickmasercola.substack.com/p/the-best-and-worst-back-of-the-box-999?r=aplk&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web

So currently I have a (I think hardware modded) PS2 Slim Silver laying around with a 64MB memory card and original controller. I know it works but I can't plug it into any screen because I don't have the ports nor an adapter to plug it into.

I am looking to play Silent Hill 2 on it, I have a 27 inch 1440p 360hz OLED Alienware monitor that I would like to plug it into.

I am not sure whether ill play more games on it than just SH2 so just for casual gaming I guess.

My question is, what adapter should I get to plug the PS2 into my gaming monitor?

Also as visible on the picture, the cable is damaged. I am pretty sure the controller still works but I was looking to replace the cable myself since I want to learn how to solder. I was considering to get 2 replacement cables for the controller in case I screw something up with the replacement.

Furthermore, I am pretty sure it's hardware modded because I have a bunch of game discs laying around with no cover on them but just the game name written on the disc with a marker, can I also use a USB, SD Card to play games on it?

Looking forward hearing from the community for advice.

Hello everybody
I’m looking for a ps2 kiosk to buy. I found a few of them and my question is: are the controller’s arms adjustable?
The best I found in my country is pretty well maintained but the pads are sooo loose. I’ll post a picture of it and one of a kiosk as I remember it has to be.
Thanks in advance to who will help me

So I just got a GBSC Pro and PSxMemCard Gen2 from bitfunx and was wondering if there are any custom firmwares that people are using to get the most out of these. Thanks in advance!

Beyond Good & Evil for a buck? Klonoa 2 for two bucks? I forgot that I was so hype for this game that I reserved it 😅

Hi, this is my first post. My PS2 has Funtuna, it was working fine, and suddenly today it only opens Funtuna if I hold down the Triangle button to open the menu directly.When I open it, I enter OPL and the screen goes black, but I can open OPL using ULaunchElf. Gemini gives me this option.This isn't the first time it's happened, but it fixed itself the other day. What do you recommend? Is it a good idea to do what Gemini suggested?

Not a huge fan of racing sims, but this is one of four PS2 games that support 1080i resolution, and I was incredibly curious about that. No booklet, but it's $2, who cares?

So a guy wants to sell me this for $310 and personally i think its to expensive what do you guys think?

I mean its some good games but i dont think id be worth over $300.

Well i turned on my old ps2 after years so it only reads 1 game (Red Faction) it dosn't wanna open any other game what so ever tho console is pal version SCPH-30004 can someone help me out.

My copy of mgs2 is not reading. I bought it recently at my local retro shop and they perform disc repairs when needed - all others working fine.

The problem I'm faced with is that inserting the disc gives me the red format disc menu. I also tried it in my PS3 which also didn't read the disc. I then tried it in my pc disc reader and booted it in PCSX2 no problem.

I've cleaned the disc and the disc reader and all other disc's have worked no problem except for this one.

The only thing I could think is causing this problem is a mark I've spotted on it highlighted in red on in my pictures.

SCPH-90004

Any help appreciated!

What are yall using to hook up a PS2 to an HDTV? I bought a YPbPr Component Upscaler from Retro Arcade Crafts and it keeps cutting in an out. I figured it wouldn’t be any good for $22. Post some recommendations!
