Thinking of putting my PS/2 on-line....
OK, I havn't realy looked in to this yet, just thought I'd ask you lot 
Is it worth me getting the adapter and putting my PS/2 on-line?
All I wanna know is....
Are there many PS/2's on-line?
Is it easy to set up?
Are there many on-line games available to buy today ?
Also, what type of games are on-line-able??
I like Metal Gear, Matrix reloaded, Gran Turismo, GTA VC, Medal Of Honour, Spiderman, Crazi Taxi
in no particular order (other then I havn't finished Matrix yet!)
Is there anything like these available on-line? if so, how many players in each game?
Thanx in advance for the info

I'd like to hear what people think of PS2 online too.
Not sure its for me since I'm pretty c*** at shoot-em-ups unless there is a strong strategy element as well.

Not that many at the moment, but you gotta remember it's just launched.
It's well worth shelling out for the network kit, even if for nothing else than saying that you were one of the first to have it commercially. That said, however, it's a great service in terms of speed / low network lag, and AFAIK Sony will be bringing out a lot of games over the next few months, compatible with the online service.

I wouldn't bother putting my PS2 online while I have two PC's but that would change if what I hear is correct about GTA 4 being able to go online

I think I'll go for it in the end. GT4 online, sounds worth by itself. I'd like to see Pro Evolution Sccer online then I'd be happy.

X-BOX??? WTF would I do with that?
For a start, my games are PS/2 games.
Next, I allready have a PC which out-specs a crappy X-Box, so why would I want one?
The X-Box is just a basic PC designed for gameing.
I won't get into the X-Box Vs PS/2 row, if I had an X-Box, I'd say it was better, but I have a PS/2, so it is better for me.
The only way I would convert to X-Box is if I could use my PS/2 controlers and play my PS/2 games.
