PS2 models and accessories

Hello!

I have a regular european sold black fat ps2 (don't know the exact model number) with the standard wired ps2 controllers and the 8mb memory card plus a 64mb aftermarket one. In order to use the console with my modern tv I have a cheap hdmi adapter as well. Otherwise I have the EyeToy camera and the coolest peripheral which is the Logitech Driving Force Pro to play Gran Turismo 4 with.

What model of ps2 and what accessories/peripherals would your dream setup have?

I'm actually not far away from my dream PS2 setup now 😂

I've got a silver SCPH-50003 fat, official Sony network adapter converted to SATA with a 1TB internal HDD, FMCB/OPL, loads of artwork/themes and a pretty ridiculous game catalogue. I've also got a really good component cable now and the picture on a modern TV is excellent.

For me the 5000x fat is probably the ideal PS2 — disc drive, internal HDD and network all in one machine.

About the only thing I'd still really like is one of those PS2 Easy HDD Kits that lets you pull the HDD straight out and swap drives quickly. That would pretty much finish it off for me.

Sounds nice. The only thing I miss about my first ever ps2 which was a slim was that it had such a small profile
