The lovable and still very cool Playstation 2 can also be customized with different accessories to improve your gaming experience. To invest in accessories means you’re a serious gamer, and you wish to maximize your game console’s capacity to provide entertainment and experience. The following are the accessories that you would probably need to improve your gaming experience.

The DUALSCHOCK2 analog controller, created by SCEI, is a great controller that detects motion in the player and has very sensitive thumbsticks. This controller came about because Sony wanted to maximize the features of the Playstation console, and at the same time, to provide enhanced playability in ordinary, everyday gaming. The 8 MB Memory Card for Playstation 2, is an essential addition to your hardware because with this device, you can save your games and your various profiles in the games that you play. The official Memory Card for the Playstation 2 gaming console features the MagicGate encryption technology; the newer version can provide more service to memory-intensive saves, but at the same time, it only works exclusively on the PS2 platform.

Now, if you want your mean machine to deliver a powerful punch with great sound and graphics, try using the original S Video Cable for Playstation 2 and the PS One Console. The S Video Cable is also manufactured by SCEI. The S Video Cable provides better picture quality than ordinary AV cables. As for video requirements, you can try SCEI’s RFU Adaptor, if your TV doesn’t have a video input slot. This device is especially useful in mediums that don’t have A/V slots.

The USB Headset for the Playstation 2 gaming console offers the discerning gamer voice recognition technology and chatting through the Internet with games that support this feature. It’s sleek and black, what more would we want?

Another great addition to the Playstation 2 accessories lineup is the Multitap, to increase the number of players that can play on the gaming console. You can also link many Multitaps together, so up to eight different gamers can join in on the fun! This device is compatible with the PS2 platform only.

Now, if you want to use your versatile Playstation 2 gaming console as a DVD player, then SCEI’s DVD Remote Control is for you. This device has all the standard buttons of your usual DVD remote, plus it has a lot of game functionalities as well. Some models may require an 8 MB Memory Card.
