Looking for some hot gaming action? 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.

1.0 out of 5 stars 35+ Games? No, 1 Game and 34 Demos..., January 7, 2009

By	Ryan Jacobsen - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Obviously the 35+ games is deceiving. You get one game and the rest are demos. Not at all worth the extra hundred-twenty dollar increase in cost from the PS2 price as of today. Plus their super high demand of black PS2s (b/c they have so many people buying this noob package) means you don't get to choose your color. This is practically a con and I suggest you stay far away from buying anything from this seller.

5.0 out of 5 stars Solid system, February 19, 2001

By	Beatle23 "beatle23" (Evanston, IL USA) - See all my reviews

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 part 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.

5.0 out of 5 stars 6 Months of Waiting!!! But worth it!!!!!, March 26, 2001

By	Francisco (San Francisco, CA USA) - See all my reviews

Well, finally I got the PS2(March 2001) after 6 months of waiting(hunting). And here I give you MY OPINION. First off the system was really...really hyped up, and it is not what really PEOPLE say it was going to be, but it is not far away from that either. It is great...the specs it has are amazing!!! Yes, better than the Dreamcast. One thing I REALLY HATE is how they compare the system to the Dreamcast. I mean HELLO PEOPLE....the Dreamcast has been out longer than the PS2!!!! Of course it is going to have more games and yes, maybe more fun than the PS2. But that doesn't mean it is going to stay like that forever. Dreamcast has CD,internet capablities...very nice!!! PS2 has the following... DVD, CD, PS1 and USB ports, way better. With the USB ports in there, you have many great things comming for the system in the future..like Internet(could be faster than Dramcast's 56K!!!). People complaint about the fan on how loud it can be...c'mon man give me a break on this!!! I' am not defending or mocking any system...just basing my opinion on the REAL facts that are out there. I bet you that 70% of people who talk trash about the PS2 own a Dreamcast. If you happen to own both then good for you!!!!

For game availability at this point I give the edge to Dreamcast...but Sony will make up for all of that very soon. Unfortunately I got the system at a point were SEGA had made a very IMPORTANT DECISION!!! SEGA IS GOING TO SUPPORT THE DREAMCAST FOR ONE MORE YEAR!!! This is true, not at all a rumor. Sega is no longer going to support the Dreamcast as much as they do now within a year and that is because they are going to turn themselves into a game developing company only, no more systems from SEGA!!!! That means that we are going to see VIRTUA FIGHTER on PS2(for sure) and maybe SONIC on PS2 and/or different SEGA games on PS2 and in different future platforms(DOLPHIN, X-BOX)

So this year the PS2 will have better and brigther things to make up for that 1 advantage SEGA had over them(game availabilty wise)!!! We are going to see later this year for the PS2...GT3, METAL GEAR 2, SILENT HILL 2, RESIDENT EVIL on PS2 and many...many great games. Just give it a year and you will see that it will start to come out with the 2nd generation games that will take more advantage of the system's capabilities.

As far as the controller goes, it shouldn't be very hard to get used to. Unless you have never played PS1 before. The demo it comes with does suck. Some great games out there that you might wanna check out are:

Teken Tag, Madden 2001, Fifa 2001, Knockout Kings 2001, Armored Core 2, SSX, Star Wars, The Bouncer..etc..etc

But in the long run..you are the gamer, the buyer and the one with the cash...check and see for your-self what you like. Then you can really see what everybody is yapping about!!!! The last point is, at the end you are the one who is going to have fun with your new system regarless of what anybody says, right?....PS2? Yes...it's worth it.
