Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Get maximum sports action with this special PlayStation2 game pack, which includes the new PlayStation2 console (with controller), a bonus Dual Shock 2 controller, a PS2 vertical stand, and three games (Madden NFL 2001, SSX: Snowboard Supercross, and NBA Live 2001). At the heart of the PlayStation2 is the 128-bit Emotion Engine processor, which brings lightning-fast gameplay and unprecedented graphics power to your TV screen. We've packed in three AAA sports titles to get things started.

EA Sports's 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 player. The graphics power of the PlayStation2 brings a new level of detail to the game. As play progresses, you'll see the field start to collect scars from some of the rougher tackles, and the players will show some wear of their own, too.

If you can pull yourself away from the football game, there's also SSX: Snowboard Supercross. Game critics are raving about this fast-action winter title, which includes unconventional racing environments and a wide variety of boarders.

NBA Live 2001 adds quite a few new touches to the long-running basketball franchise, including coaches who lose their cool at bad calls and player moves such as turnaround jumpers, drop steps, up-and-under moves, and monster dunks. It also includes some classic teams, such as the '72 Lakers or '86 Celtics, each with its full complement of players from its winning season right down to likenesses and uniforms.

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.

5.0 out of 5 stars All that and more, April 10, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: PlayStation2 All Star Pack (Electronics)
I should preface my comments by saying I don't have a DVD player. So that feature of my PS2 was great. Yes the controls are not up to a remote control's standards, but it's good enough. The feature that it is lacking the most is a counter to tell you the length of the DVD and time remaining, etc. but that's a small detail.

For PS1 games, it's just like the original. Haven't seen any problems. No long load times or anything.

For the games in this bundle, Madden 2001 is all that. Game Pro recently had it listed #7 out of the top 15 games (Console, PC, and arcade) of all-time. It looks great, the AI is great. The players actually catch the ball instead of getting it through their backs. I can't give thi game enough superlatives!

NBA Live is very much a first-gen game and should get better. It takes the players a while to shoot after you press the button. Seeing the whole screen is still a problem. The post-up moves are good.

SSX is a great game. It's very highly rated. Once your characters have improved it makes your play (races and tricks) much easier.

The Vertical stand is ok, although you can get cheaper stands in stores.

I bought my PS2 from Amazon thinking they would run out and they have in other bundles, but not this one which is the one I wanted since I wanted these 3 games. (I don't like NBA Live enough to play it often).

To do over again, I would say only buy this from Amazon if you can't get a PS2 in your area.

... Availability in stores may be limited in your area. In store is better if you're on a budget and want to get these games later.

Last thing, BE SURE TO GET A MEMORY CARD!

5.0 out of 5 stars Solid System, April 1, 2001
By 
This review is from: PlayStation2 All Star Pack (Electronics)
Everyone seems to be comparing the Dreamcast with the PS2 and making some legitimate gripes. However, I ask this of people... if the PS2 came out before the Dreamcast, would you be making the same gripes? If the PS2 came out over a year ago, I'm sure they would have the full capabilities that Sega presents and then some. Also, many complain about no internet connection, etc... The PS2 is capable. What Sony has not done is sell the components to make it a realization. It's all a marketing ploy so they can build up hype and sales. Give the PS2 a year, and it will surpass the Dreamcast in gameplay, selection, and capability.

I personally found the PS2 attractive because of its backward compatibility and the ability to play DVD's. I will say that the games are quite good for being such a young system. Also, the DVD playing is sufficient. Although the controls are awkward because you have to use the analog controllers, it still suffices as a DVD player. There is a third party remote, but I don't trust third party equipment. I'll wait for something better. As some have said, the vent is quite loud at times. The hum will be annoying at first esp. if you place it on a hard surface, but it's something you'll get used to.

Should you get the PS2? Yes. Should you get it now? No. The price will definitely go down with time, and it'll be more affordable then. Also, there will be more games later this year. Also, for those who don't have a DVD player, this system will keep you entertained two-fold. If you're going to compare it to the Dreamcast, ask yourself where the PS2 will be in equal time. You can't compare a 5-year-old to a new born and automatically say that the 5-year-old will be smarter in the long run just because it can read and the newborn can't.
