Check out our PlayStation2 Action Gamer Pack. This special bundle includes the new PlayStation2 console (with controller), a bonus Dual Shock 2 controller, a vertical stand, and three games (Madden NFL 2001, Tekken Tag Tournament, and Ridge Racer V). At the heart of the PlayStation2 is the 128-bit Emotion Engine processor, which promises to bring lightning-fast gameplay and unprecedented graphics power to your TV screen. We've packed in three AAA action titles to get things started. EA Sports' Madden NFL 2001 fully utilizes the PlayStation2's advanced hardware with ultrarealistic rushing, passing, blocking, and tackling. You can play the built-in AFC and NFC lineups, or even create your own players. The graphics power of the PlayStation2 brings a new level of detail to the game. As play progresses, you'll see the field collecting scars from some of the rougher tackles, and the players will show some wear of their own, too. If you're willing to break away from the football game, there's also Tekken Tag Tournament. With more than 30 characters to fight against or beside, this game allows you to pull off the ultimate human combo: tag-team fighting. By choosing two fighters with broadly divergent skills, you can greatly increase your threat to other fighters. The Action Gamer Pack also includes Ridge Racer V, the latest title in Namco's popular racing series. This graphically stunning racer truly showcases the horsepower of the PlayStation2. The vehicles have more polygons than we can imagine, and their reflective surfaces are just dazzling. To help you go head-to-head with your opponents, this bundle also includes a bonus Dual Shock 2 controller. Also, we've included the official PS2 vertical stand, which turns your machine into a tower of sleek gaming power.

I read most of the reviews here and decided to splurge for a Playstation 2. I found it odd how at most local retailers and on-line retailers required you to buy bundle packs and additional accessories. I decided to get it anyways, although my wallet thought otherwise. The Playstation 2 has a nice sleek design, the additional add-ons and stuff like being able to play DVD movies make it nice, the games are nice, the controllers are the same, but nice, the picture quality is nice. If you can't see a pattern here...I'll explain it: The Playstation 2, while a good console, just isnt what it could be. I was expecting another form of a god, since this was from one of the leaders in entertainment, Sony. What I got was; very very slow load times. Graphics were nice, but you can't expect much from first generation games, but they could've easily been better. I noticed there is no support for my 16:9 widescreen HDTV. The Playstation2 is very very delicate, if you walk near it or if the bass is too loud the game/movie will skip and possibly scratch a disc(i've returned a couple discs already). Audio is not crisp and clear, that could also be the fact of the first generation games. The controllers have no new features. There is no broadband adapter built in and no hard drive as well. The list goes on, you maybe saying I'm expecting too much or being picky with details. But the way I see it, for 450$, I should be expecting everything and so much more. I am not dissing the machine, all I'm saying is its only worth 149$ max. So far I mainly use it to play old ps1 games and DVD movies...as far as gaming and new features has gone, I'm not too impressed. Anyways, if this keeps up, in about a week or so I'm gonna return it. That way I wont have to save up for the Xbox. Review: Technical Disappointment - I know many people take a look at the hardware specifications and automatically think the PS 2 tops the Dreamcast. Well the truth is as follows: The PS 2 does have a CPU capable of processing upto 12 million polygons a/sec, while the Dreamcast is able to process up to 6 million polygons a/sec. But the difference is that the PS 2 has a preset 4mb of video ram while the Dreamcast has 16mb which it can allocate to video ram as necessary. Why is that a problem you ask? Well 5 million Polygons will take up 3.3 megs of VRAM + 1.2 megs to display the data + the textures to place onto the polygons. In the end, the PS 2 is barely able to produce 3 million polygons a/sec and its' peak polygon game is Madden 2001. The dreamcast on the other hand, is able to process as much as 6 million polygons a sec. Ofcourse, Sony has found a way around this by updating the cache two times a sec, tying the Dreamcast at 5 to 6 Polygons /asec. Then, we get to the point of graphic quality. The textures the PS 2 creates flow directly though the console without being compressed, which only gives you about 10 megs of textures. Sega, on the other hand can only transfer 5 megs of compresses textures, which later extract to show as much as 25 or 30 megs of textures. Overall, both the PS 2 and the DC produce the same peak Polygon rate, but the Dreamcast has all most 3 times the texture capacity of the PS 2. Condering the PS2 costs 3 times as much and produces textures 3 times worse than the Dreamcast, it is a shame to Sony and a huge disappointment... All the information is perfectly legitimate and was created using non-biased reviews and actual specs from the manufacturers websites.
