Sony PlayStation 2 (slim form factor)

By John P. Falcone (cnet.com)

Huge library of games; svelte design; built-in networking/modem ports and remote sensor; doubles as a CD/DVD player; free online gaming with select titles.

Top-loading disc tray; only two controller ports; no hard disk expansion option; Xbox's graphics capabilities are superior.

Sony's revamped PS2 is slimmed down and online friendly, but the price is still too fat

Sony Playstation 2 Slim

By Staff writers (pcauthority.com.au)

The faithful old PS2 isn't knocking on the door of the retirement home just yet and the new look has knocked years off, but it's the consistently brilliant games that are really keeping the biggest selling console ever from slipping six feet under.

Ace new design and super-skinny size. Network capabilities built-in. Huge catalogue of great games.

Can�€™t compete graphically with the Xbox 360. Only two controller ports.

It must've been a pretty strenuous fitness regime, because the new model weighs less than half of the original, while the internal volume has been reduced by 75 percent

"Fun with lots of choices"

By Freshbakedpie (cnet.com)

A good choice for newbies to gaming systems 

Lots of game choices, some very popular titles

Lacks the "party" style of the Nintendo systems. Most games only 1 or 2 players
