GAMESHARK HAS FALLEN OFF WITH THEIR PRODUCTS, May 13, 2006
This review is from: GameShark 2 (CD-ROM)
For some odd reason I bought this version of Gameshark hoping it would be a pretty good cheat device, since I have broadband to keep it updated. It also states you can use a usb memory stick/storage device to update your codes.
I CANNOT GET EITHER TO WORK.
Several other people in the GS.com Forums have had the same problems... They try to log on to update codes via broadband and it connects maybe twice out of hundreds of attempts.
Manually entering codes on the newer versions of Gameshark is a pain in the @$$... it's nothing like the older versions. Also, a lot of the self entered codes will not be recognized by the game and therefore they will not work, so you waste time putting in the codes manually, and nothing happens when you load the game.
I have no clue why they'd market this junk... If they would have left their old configuration alone this would probably be a decent product, unfortunately, they didn't and it's not.
Go buy yourself an ARMAX EVO... At least it works 90% of the time, whereas Gameshark works about 20% of the time.
DO NOT BUY UNLESS YOU INTEND ONLY ON USING THE PRELOADED CODES, UPDATING THIS PRODUCT IS ALMOST IMPOSIBLE !

Game shark for the PS 2 is a waste, March 4, 2007
= Fun:1.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: GameShark 2 (CD-ROM)
Do not buy this product. It has blue surface and your PS 2 will probably have problems reading it and give you a "disk error." I don't know why they did this. Also, the one I purchased scratched very easily compounding my problems. Unfortuntely, is was too late to take it back to the vendor. I am going to try code breaker. It seems a much better product. The orignial game shark for the ps 1 that attached to the console was a far better product.

gameshark 2, August 30, 2009
= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: GameShark 2 (CD-ROM)
The gameshark 2 is a good product overall. I like that it has so many games for ps2 but I still had to add some of my games manually. This is the only drawback to this product. When you type in codes manually, it takes a long time. I did a few games and it took me at least a couple of hours. Despite this drawback, I am satisfied with my purchase.
