A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

I'm going to start this lag anytime now with PS2 games. I didn't have one when it was new and decided to have the real deal instead of emulating it. It's all set with a 500GB HD and loads of games. Now, I only need time...
I also have an extensive collection of classics on my GOG account. Yet to start playing the majority.
If you get the "network adapter" accessory, you can install an HDD in the fat PS2. Then after setting up the bootloader and apps, you can play your games directly from the HDD.

It was an official thing, and the only way to play Final Fantasy XI, since the game had to receive updates. The HDD has to be a 3.5" SATA drive to slot in properly. I looked around for one adapter 3.5 to SD adapter, but finding a used 500gb drive was cheaper.
