new ps2? WHy not just go and buy one from wal-mart.

Or do you mean the PS3? If so, you still got a long wait ahead.

i believe it was mid november the thin verison will be out

Ohh. SO there actually is going to be a NEW PS2? The only other thing I could think of was the PSX but i thought they weren't selling those anymore.

Never heard anything about the thin PS2.

I'd buy the new thin one - I'm done keeping my pc up to date just to play games.

So its kinda like what they did with the first playstation? And what Nintendo did with teh SNES?

ah

I think its pretty much useless. If its not better, why would anyone spend $200 more just for thinner

Yeah the PS3 is quite a ways away.

They demonstrated some time ago the potential power of the unit - a really large stack of PS2's wired to a computer in parallel as one unit.

I posted some photos of the new PS2 about a week ago....
