PlayStation 2 Slim Console PS2 (Renewed)

Works great for her dads old games

AMAZON and the Renewal Company ROCK 30 games should be embarrassed for allowing this PS2 to leave their doors and be shipped out. If customers are paying $200 plus dollars for this, you should at least clean the system out of the nasty brown mold that is inside. (Photos of disc tray)That is probably skin cells from the last owners that have been sitting there for the past 10 years. I can’t imagine what the inside looks like. On top of that the system that I received has a issue with possibility the disc tray or disc reader that is not allowing the system to properly read the disc that is causing the system to freeze and music skips. I tested the system out on several games for a couple hours and they all the same issues. I even went as far as to test my discs on another friends system and the discs work fine. So it’s the system and was not probably renewed. I’m working now to get a replacement or refund so I can have it properly repaired and clean out like it should have been. I hate writing reviews like this but man the renewal company should of never let this be sent out like this what a terrible experience

The slim version of the PS2 is still the greatest console ever made. It's an improvement of the first wide console which had a high failure rate and cost customers a lot of money. The console has the largest library of any kind ever, and is backward compatible with Original Playstation games, in all too many games for a casual gamer to have time for in one lifetime. My purchase has already given me hours of bliss playing old games I should never have let go. The game Deus Ex: The Conspiracy is especially relevant now; plagues, conspiracies and artificial intelligence are brought into play in a story you'll never forget. The Madden and WWE games were far more fun, there were no microtransactions and single player games were private, and all genres were full of greatest hits as well as underrated titles. Somehow games were more immersive and fun. Medal of Honor was still good, platformers were at their best, and though some titles have had or are getting remakes and remasters, not enough are. To play a PS One game, remember to have a suitable memory card unless you plan on doing speed runs. You can't use the PS2 memory card for original Playstation games. If you remember, or never had the sheer pleasure of using this amazing console, do it. You will not see the mind-blowing graphics of the PS4 or 5, but forget that and get lost in great gameplay. Worth every penny!

To begin with, I was a tad nervous after reading some of the 1 or 3-star reviews with damage or even dead roaches or bugs inside the player. However, because of the pandemic and the difficulty in acquiring a PS5, I’ve been rediscovering an appreciation for my older PS2 titles and took the chance since a majority of the reviews were overwhelmingly positive. I gave away my PS2 slim to my 7 year-old nephew at the time a little over a decade ago. I also gave away or donated most of my games to my nephew or orphanages, but I kept a few that I loved in storage. My product arrived a day before the expected arrival, and man, I forgot how small the PS2 slim model was! Mine works perfectly and there was no damage or anything. VERY MINOR scratch on the top of the player, but other than that, nothing was compromised. I unearthed my old PS2 games I kept and been enjoying those all over again, especially ones that I know will likely never be ported over digitally (or never remastered) to the newer generation consoles. If you have the extra buying power, then I HIGHLY recommend this. I’d also recommend buying a couple of memory cards, an extra controller (if you like) and the PS2 HDMI converter/adapter in case your TVs don’t support those classic, colored, Audio-Video (AV) component cables. So I purchased that too separately to enjoy my games with an HD experience! Thank you! It’s been the best!

The first one that came in was loud and scratched my game in a full circle. (See video and image) Was then sent a replacement that also made noises and did not load games at all. I am not sure what refurbished company Amazon uses for this but it is not working out well for them. Also, the controller is not a Sony controller but some off brand unlike the images show.

Game console was great! Product was wrapped really well and exceptionally clean. The controller didn't work, but system worked perfectly!

I've always been a loyal PlayStation user, ever since the original PS-1. The PS2, when it came out had some excellent and well done titles, Gran Turismo 4, Star Wars Jedi Power battles, the Lord of the Rings games based on the movies that had come out around the time the console was introduced. For the time, and the console, these offerings were very good. I also found some rarer titles that were just as entertaining. It's a good console that packs a lot in for what it is. Some of the graphics hold up well even today. I was lucky to find one in good condition. Thank you to the company and people who sold this to me.

Trying to see if i can contact the seller, but I am NOT happy. I bought this about 4 months ago along with 3 PS2 games. X-Men Legends, X-Men Legends 2, and Champions of Norrath. Worked great, until today. I turned the consol on to play one of the games and it said "Unable to Read Disc". I opened the dic tray and saw a trace amount of a white powdery substance. I removed the disc and there is a scratch ring all around the disc which was the source of the powder. I checked the other two games, and they have the same ring. Now I can't play any of them!
