Ordered HD Advance, a PS2 network adaptor and a 160GB Samsung hard disk.

and cases in a cupboard like I have done with my XBox ones, and that's a
good enough reason as any.
k, good for you........and why did you tell us? :)
i've been meaning to HD up my ps2 for a while. the dvd drive is dying
on its arse so it seems a good move.
