I will be very careful with buying a 3rd-party accessories for PS2. Especially remotes. It has been known that some 3rd-party remotes could cause damages to PS2, and using a 3rd-party reomote may void the PS2 warranty. I saw Remote made by Sony at Best Buy a few days ago (Culver City, CA), and it was 19.99. It looks a lot better and had much better functionality and features. I would invest extra $10 (probably less considering shipping) than buying this well-known problem maker.
