When the PS2 came out my brother told my mom that he wants to own one because he spends the greatest amount of his time playing games. But last night when I talked with him, he told me if I could get him the new PS2 because it has been redesigned and is much smaller and is always network ready and the best thing about it is plug and play. It also has a built in CD and DVD player, you can do almost anything with this new play station2 system. Since I promised him I am going to get him one for his birthday, I will have to look for affordable place where I can buy it for him. Luckily, buy.com has the PS2 at a great price plus they carry all the accessories and games for it too.
