However, Logitech has released PS2 controllers for PC, so if you do find roms, you can play them naturally. |
The even more severe problem with PS2 emulators and roms is that they're very slow and you'll most likely see nothing but a nice and stylish, but not very amusing lowfps diashow.
So the best choice probably is to simply put the 100$ on the table and get yourself the real thing. I bought mine mainly to play PSX games (since my PSX had broken down ;/), but soon found some quite amusing PS2 titles I'm still playing rather frequently.
I would suggest: Suikoden III, Dynasty Warriors 3+4, FFXII and FFX (if you like just partially interactive CG movies). The biggest plus of the PS2 however is that it allows you to play the good ol PSX titles as well . _________________ AtW Studios

Well as I said, no PS2 for me in the near future.
But I stadet that I'd be happy to get a used SNES for Christmas, and since there are lots of people in our village with working SNES's that are not used, it's very possible.
Oh, and I even know where our cardridge of Terranigma is  |
