Overview
PlayStation2, the very best in home entertainment, is sleeker, smaller and more stylish than ever before - and comes in two gorgeous colours, Charcoal Black and Satin Silver.
But this dazzling downsizing hasn't extended to the console's superb range of features. PlayStation2 still has the same awesome processing power, the same immense, diverse library of great games, the same fantastic DVD and CD-playing capabilities, the same stunning versatility... In short, PlayStation2 offers the same amazing array of entertainment possibilities in a single, simple to use console.
In fact, PlayStation2 manages to squeeze even more into its svelte, lightweight frame; the newly-integrated NETWORK connector gives you the power to directly hook your console up to a broadband Internet connection and take a variety of network-enabled games and applications online. It's possible to compete, cooperate or even chat with fellow PlayStation2 owners across Australia and, in some cases, the rest of the world.
An essential addition to any home, PlayStation2 will open your eyes to a whole new world of entertainment.
