The PlayStation2 Console Charcoal Black (SCPH-70000 CB) is a new and slimer PlayStation2 model. Due to internal structure improvements, the volume of the machine has been reduced by 75% and the weight been optimized to approx. 900g only.
The PlayStation2 Console Charcoal Black includes a built-in network connector (100BASE-TX/10BASE-T) but no longer features harddrive support. Also due to design and technical changes, previous Multitap as well as Vertical Stand models are no longer suitable for this model.
Besides from this, the updated PlayStation2 still plays back all PlayStation2 and PlayStation2 games (Japanese region encoded titles only) as well as DVD movies (Region 2 NTSC only!).
Great Console I purchased the charcoal black version of the console. It works flawlessly, just like my silver US version. Now I can play import PS1 and PS2 games to my heart's content. On another note, the shipping was fast as usual and the product was packaged carefully. Once again, great service from Play-Asia!
Awesome The new console is the perfect match for someone that needs space or is living in the doorms. Its new flip open design instead of trays gives it a longer life. Its so small it has almost become a portable itself, making taking it to a friends house easier then any other console.
Best choice for UK gamers The plugs exactly the same as a UK plug, so no need to mess around with adaptors/step down converters/etc. Only problem is that some people will have to buy an RGB cable for it to play in couler. Apart from that, no problems! :)
