PS2 Price Drop - New PS2 SLIM units are now $129. This is universal across all the major retailers.
Gamestop has reduced their price on used systems to $99.

$129 Canadian up here...and a free Gran Turismo 4 if you go to Best Buy. ;)

Can you hook up a hard drive to these? I don't think so. Do they still sell the full size wher eoyu cna hook up a hard drive?
-
You can hook up a hard drive to a full size PS2 via the add on Network adapter. The slimline PS2's can also get a hard drive via a new USB drive or by replacing the botom of the PS2 with a mod to accomodate an internal drive.

I picked up a used full-size PS2 with Network Adapter at Gamestop yesterday for $99. It came with one controller and video cables.
If I had known about the free Gran Turismo 4 at Best Buy with a new one, I may have gone that route as I also bought a copy of Gran Turismo 4 at Gamestop. :banghead:
-
GT4 is on greatest hits now, you can pick up a new copy for $20, so you saved $10 your way. :applaud:
-
now what exactly is the hdd for?
oh btw my ps2 was $0 cause referal programs work lol
-
Some games, like Final Fantasy, use it. But the real reason to have one is so you can mod the PS2 and rip games to the hard drive so you don't have to put discs in, or so you can avoid that whole inconvenient "buying" thing altogether when it comes to getting games.
