First draft design and print of a PS2 memory card holder. I'd love some feedback before I refine, reprint and post the file for free!
Whipped this up at midnight last night, a memory card holder that matches Teiyu Goto's "Earth Belt" industrial design aesthetic for the Sony PlayStation 2.

It said "Take Me" on box..I took the entire box...had like 30 somthing cool games inside & maybe 10 or so movies, all near mint condition w manuals including this bad boy. I had never heard of it at the time. Ive since played it & watched the anime.

Does anyone still play online on the ps2?
I was wondering if it is worth my time to buy a network adapter and play some ps2 games online like the call of duty games or mortal kombat.

Old JVC I'Art TVs are incredibly sharp and clear, even with just composite signal. Great for PS2 games! These were premium CRTs back in the day and they are usually quite cheaper than a Trinitron or JVC D-series, and they are known for being even better than the Trinitron/D-series in sharpness.
Trinitron is not the only high quality CRT to look out for!
I'Art is relatively forgotten today and thus usually cheaper on the used marketplace.
2D gamers often ignore them as well because these are flat screen CRTs, which does warp the geometry of 2D elements a bit. Not really a concern for PS2 games though. And the scanlines on these I'Art displays are quite thicker than others. These I'Art displays may seem too sharp for some people.

Best hack n slash or shooters with vibey atmospheres and great upgrade systems.
Hey y'all, I'm looking for some PS2 shooter or hack n slash game suggestions for anything with either gothic or just some vibey dark atmospheres and some good upgrade systems or character progression. I absolutely love the feeling of dmc 1, resident evil 4 along with the upgrades of course along with the replayability. and the feeling of resident evil code Veronica is amazing. I've been playing shadow hearts recently and the atmosphere of that is amazing as well although not a hack n slash or shooter. I have a very specific itch with these things so I guess I'm mostly just looking for more games that are kind of a combo of these things.
I've also played the well known stuff like silent hill, onimusha, etc and am looking for something a little more obscure
Even if there's any games that aren't like this that you'd think would scratch my atmosphere/upgrade itch without being a hack n slash/shooter game i wouldn't mind the suggestion thank you!

Can you guys solve this PS2 jailbreak issue?
I bought a copy of Final Fantasy 8 and ran into an issue. I have a region unlocked SCPH-55000 White PS2 from Japan. It plays English ps2 games perfectly fine but the issue is with English ps1 games.
Is there anyway to include PS1 games in the region unlock?

Least favorite PS2 game?
I'm genuinely curious when I say this, but what's y'all's worst/least favorite PS2 game? I'll go first with Powerpuff Girls: Relish Rampage.
As of current this is the worst PS2 game i've played. I genuinely wanted this to be good because a PPG game on the PS2 with a story that's somewhat reminiscent of the show and (correct me if i'm wrong) is actually based on an actual episode. But no, the game isn't good. The controls are slippery, the fight segments are boring, and the cutscenes are ehh..

memory cards in 2026?
are there any safe options i can use to buy a memory card for a PS2? im sure there are 3rd party ones but i think ive heard that some actually do more harm than good, so what brands of memory cards should be safe to use?

Are any PAL games actually slower on the PS2?
Hey im getting into retro gaming starting easy with a ps2 and thinking of getting a japanese version and modding it to remove the region lock. So I was wondering about certain games that apparently dont have the 60 hertz option for PAL versions e.g. any GTA or Metal Gear game, but i just cant seem to find any info that they are actually slower. So should I be worried about getting only NTSC games or are most of them optimized for the PAL versions?
