I`m thinking about getting the Ps2 network adapter and Midnight club 2.


You think it would be worth the 100 bucks?

 

[TurboSmoke]

Only worth it if you have broadband and know other who have the adapter and broadband also...

 

[Larzzon]

I got broadband...but I don`t know any other people who got this.
I should be able to have fun anyway

I say it's worth it, I've had the adapter for a while, and it makes the replay value of all of your online games much higher.

 

[Larzzon]

That`s it I`m gonna order it.

Just gonna get that game first

I posted a question about this somewhere else, but can't remember what I called it and can't find it so... apologies to those who may have read/answered me before.. but..

With the PS2 Network (Ethernet) adapter.. Is it a case of connecting the adapter to a HUB whic is connected to the net... ??

I have a LAN in my home with 5 machines running on it, and the LAN is connected to the internet via a 1mb/s adsl connection (from my ISP).

Do I simply connect the PS2 ethernet adapter to my router/hub like another PC machine and I am automatically connected to my broadband connection.. ?? Or, does the PS2 require a special broadband account with a specific ISP.. ??

I will happily buy the ethernet adapter if I can use my existing LAN/Internet connection, but I certainly aren't going to pay for yet another broadband ISP just to use my PS2 online.. !!

Any comments appreciated..

you use your exsiting broadband connection

I still haven't found a way to connect online when my computer is on, I have to turn it off before the network adapter will work, but I guess it's better than unpluging the ethernet cord out of the back of my computer everytime I want to go play online with my PS2, btw I have a hub that connects my PS2, and my computer

With the Network Adapter you also get a mail in offer for a free Twisted Metal Black Online.

Does the hundred cover both the adapter AND the game ?

 

[Larzzon]

Well...yes
But we use kronor here so it`s a little more then 1000 kronor and that is like 100 dollars

But I traded in some old games to get the game cheaper


One more thing,can you surf the internet with that thing,and how does that look and work?

I know you use kronors. So do we except ours is called kroner and is slightly less devaluated 1000 sek is closer to US$ 125.

Anyway - How much is the network adapter in sweden. Over here it's 449 dkk (550 sek). If it's cheaper in sweden I might as well buy it across the bridge...

No internet unfortunately... But who knows what the future will bring

No store has it here exept Webhallen.com,so you have to order it online.
It`s 429 kronor

Thanks man 👍

Glad I could help!

 

[IceGT]

actually you can surf the internet if you buy the I think it's 40 gig hard drive, and the linux package. But I have only seen them on ebay so far. It a hard item to find.

 

[Larzzon]

But the site where I ordered it said I could....

No way to do it beside buy all that?

 

[IceGT]

not that I know of, unless there is an internet browser disk that they are giving you, and I never heard of anyone creating one

I think Midnight Club 2 is coming to the PC soon, maybe wait for that, unless you really want to go online with the PS2. (Gameshark/action replay is ruining it though.)

 

[Larzzon]

I really want to
