PMills Posted December 24, 2003 Share Posted December 24, 2003 What do you (seriously or humorously) reckon makes a white PS2 console that's now available, better to have and use, compared to a standard black one ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forster Posted December 24, 2003 Share Posted December 24, 2003 Only reason to buy one is because it fits better with your current setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Montage Posted December 24, 2003 Share Posted December 24, 2003 Forster: Yup, they have decided to target the PS2 at a different audience, a more mature one that owns their own place and decides to co-ordinate. The hardware is the same. However, the silver edition (here in the UK) has a quieter fan and better DVD playback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheElite Posted December 24, 2003 Share Posted December 24, 2003 The hardware is the same.However, the silver edition (here in the UK) has a quieter fan and better DVD playback. it has got more advanced stuff aswell like an updated chip and infra red.
