A Conversation for Sony's Playstation 2.

Hi,
Just a few comments.
the product under discussion is 'PlayStation 2' (note the capital 'S' in the middle. Sony Computer Entertainment always insist on addressing the product as 'PlayStation 2' - NOT 'The PlayStation 2' - while the controller you mention is the Analog Controller (DUALSHOCK) 2, not the Dualshock 2 controller. Since 1999, the original PlayStation has been renamed PS one.
The section on Backwards Compatibility could be reworded to make it a little clearer:
'There is one catch: you can use PlayStation memory cards and Multitaps with PlayStation 2, but only when playing PlayStation games; for PlayStation 2 games, the PlayStation 2 memory Card and Multitap should be used.'
By the way, the URL in the original entry is now out of date. The URL should either be www.playstation.com (the global hub) or http://uk.playstation.com (the UK page - note, no www!).
There should probably also be mentions of the PS2's broadband capabilities and hard disc-drive (HDD).
