just a note...if you bought a slimline PS2 premodded..ask them if the diode mod was done otherwise your laser will die prematurely. I have both units and I dont think the newer PS2 is much better than the older types..they are cheaply built

I went to four walmarts,(I really hate Walmart) a toysrus, Target, Circuit City, Best Buy, Gamexchange, and a Gamestop..and none of them had any PS2's only one place had DS's (which I didn't even want)....
Everywhere was sold out of xboxs as well.

I didn't think it would be this big of a deal finding PS2's this is rediculous....my head hurts after all that and nothing to show for it...OTW teach me to shop around the holidays...I was just hoping to play some PS2 games that I bought with a trade-in of my gamecube....before I leave for like two months after the first of January....Fortunately I did pick up FFI and II for the GBA so I'm not hurting to bad but, I was hoping to save that for the trip.
BTW
I never owned a PS2 before (yeah, I know i've been holding out) but, I love FF games from my old nintendo/snes games....I was going to pick up FF origins as well...poo

About a month back, I picked up a slim PS2. I purchased it from Game Crazy - within a Hollywood Video store. Along with the purchase, I received 12 coupons for free game or movie rentals to be used over the next year. The coupons are worth $48, so buying it there made the most economical sense. *

* - Purchase was made using the thought patterns of RossMan. ;)

True. The Xbox also had the same coupon promotion. The only thing that kept me from springing for the Xbox was the fact that I wanted a console to play San Andreas.
