I have had the PS2 since the year...
Strengths: Reliable(never has died on me), backwards compatible with PS1 games, great game library, easy to use, good load time for most games, and great controller.
Weakness: Not compatible with all dvd movies which can be corrected for most dvds if you buy a PS2 remote control which comes with driver disk, trouble playing some PS games for a extended amount of time(4-5hr)
I have had the PS2 since the year it came out, and I never had to replace my system. For those that have read disc errors, most of it is caused by having your PS2 sitting horizontally. Also after using the system, I always turn it off. I have had the same PS2 memory card since I bought the system and has never died on me either. The only games I have had problems with the PS2 are playing some PS1...

Strengths: Almost everything about this system is a strength. Its small, and its easy to setup. u can use your ornigal PS controllers on PS2. they r so easy to use, their not big and have buttons u don't use.
Weakness: some games(like 2 or 3 that i have played) have slow loading time

we own ALL consoles out there....
Strengths: great games, plays DVD's better than any other regular player, works perfect since we got it when it FIRST was released
Weakness: none that i can see, i'm even buying my niece and nephew one for Christmas!
we own ALL consoles out there. this is the best, for games, music, AND DVD's. PS2 is faithful, much more versatile and games are better than ever. highly recommend.

the memory cards are too expensive...
Strengths: great ease of set up, easy to use, fun, good graphics, and even more fun when shared. the DVD feature is a good asset, as well.
Weakness: the MEMORY cards short out quickly, espicially when playing the SIMS
the memory cards are too expensive since you nned a new one everytime you start a new game, and they can fritz out quickly; but other than that, i love my PS2!
