PS2 just had it's 10th b-day and games are still being produced for it, there are over 1000 games for it I believe already. One of the best consoles of all time imo. If thats not enough reason to have one, i dont know what it.

PS 2 Still rocks!

I've had my console for a long time. (8 years or so) It's the original large, bulky one. That thing is a tank! It's been dropped many times from various heights and still runs well. I play games on it regularly even though we have a Wii and an Xbox 360. Granted, the graphics on some of the older games in particular are cheap compared to today's consoles, but the games are still good. I hope Sony doesn't try to phase this one out for a long time.
