The PS2 was released in the year 2000, and has gone on to sell more than 70 million unites. It has competed against a wide range of other gaming consoles, yet still remains one of the best selling gaming machines of all time. The reasons for its success are partly because of its competitive price, partly because of the great selection of games available for it, and partly because of the many experience enhancing accessories that can be used with it.

Of the accessories available for the PS2, these are the most popular…

Sony PS2 Multitap : An area where PS2 lacks is the number of players playing at one time. Unlike Xbox or GameCube, the PS2 only has two built in controller ports. However, if you are planning to play against four people than you can buy a mulittap, which allows you to engage in a four player gaming session.

PS2 Dual Shock Controller : The dual shock analog controller provides a more realistic gaming experience, with pressure sensitivity on every action button plus an improved mobility of the analog. It revolutionizes the gaming world.

PS2 DVD Remote Controller Kit : The PS2 is perfect for watching moves as well as playing games; but it does not come with a remote control, which means that playing, pausing or fast forwarding movies is a bit of a pain. This controller allows PS2 owners to watch movies in exactly the same way as they would watch them on TV.

Sony PS2 Memory Card : There are hardly games that you complete in one sitting, which means that you need a save function in order to avoid having to continually start at the beginning of a game. One 8 MB card is enough for even the most hardcore gamers.

Logitech PS2 Wireless Headset : This lets you play games without getting tangled up in wires or annoying your family with game sounds. It will also help you to communicate with other people when you play games online. It is well built, with excellent sound quality.
