Sony Ethernet/Modem Network Adaptor for PlayStation 2

Strengths: The Network Adapter is your key to FREE online gameplay if you have an Internet provider. Also a FREE online game (Twisted Metal: Black Online) will be sent to you from Sony with your purchase.

Weakness: Some people may need to purchase extra PC networking accessories to get online with the PS2.

First of all, you do not need to pay a fee for a monthly subscription of any sort to gain access to Sony's online community. Though some people may need to purchase some PC networking devices and have a ready connection to the Internet, it's all free after you have the Network Adapter. Sony will even send you a FREE online game (Twisted Metal: Black Online) to play after filling out a...

Sony Ethernet/Modem Network Adaptor for PlayStation 2

Strengths: Best thing to ever hit a console. Ps2 now rises way above all the other systems. Xbox has no chance.

Weakness: NOt much. Just the amount available.

If you own a PS2, then the adapter is a must have. Now you can play all your favorite game with your buddies and you don't even have to move. When the hard drive comes out it will be a complete system. I am very proud to own a PS2.

Sony Ethernet/Modem Network Adaptor for PlayStation 2

Strengths: No Lagging, and that means for a smooth online experience.

Weakness: No Flaw, you just cannot play SOCOM: Navy Seals Online.

This device takes your gaming to a whole new level in fun and competitiveness. You can test your skills world wide with Dial-Up connection or ETHERNET internet connections. XBOX live has a downfall which is that you can only have a ETHERNET connection to play with. Don't think Dial-Up limits speed of game play, it doesn't. Almost Similar that of ETHERNET connections while playing online.Hoping...

Sony Ethernet/Modem Network Adaptor for PlayStation 2

Strengths: Works well, very easy.

Weakness: Wish it had come with the system; Expensive.

I own all three consoles, and plan on taking all of them online. I feel as though I have a unique perspective on this issue, and I think a LOT of you are clouded by blind fanboyism to approach this device objectively. This device works very well. It does exactly what it says it will do. It works with my University DSL. I'm very happy with it. For those of you who continually bash xbox live, I...

He told me he wished he got PS2. Microsoft makes u pay a subscribtion. SUBSCRIPTIONS ARE GAY FOR CONSOLES. Who would pay periodically for sumthing that was already upwards of $300. Ill tell u --an xbox user--. Sony made this...

Sony Ethernet/Modem Network Adaptor for PlayStation 2

Strengths: ability to play online and still have computer available for others.

Weakness: so far have noted none, mostly play during evening and late night hours.

The network adaptor is easy to install. It opens up a new world of enjoyment on the PS2. I highly recommend this product to anyone interested in buying. It is worth the money and takes very little time to install. For the price and performance, it is an excellent buy. Assassinblack

Sony Ethernet/Modem Network Adaptor for PlayStation 2

PS 2 is a good system and so is Xbox but if you want online gaming just play computer games. I do feel more comfortable with the console controller but online computer games are good 2. They even got a free game called america's army using the unreal 2003 gfx engine and its not bad. Ok you guys be like i like my tv is big to view games , gfx cards cost cash and using mouse and keyboard is stupid...
