What is PlayStation 2(PS2)? And the Hardware
and software compatibility:
The PlayStation 2 (often shortened to PS2 is a sixth-generation video game console
manufactured by Sony. The successor to the PlayStation, and the predecessor to the
PlayStation 3, the PlayStation 2 forms part of the PlayStation series of video game
consoles. Its development was announced in March 1999 and it was released a year later in
Japan. Its primary competitors were Sega's Dreamcast, Microsoft's Xbox, and the Nintendo
GameCube.
In addition to PS2 software, the PS2 can read both CDs and DVDs and is backward compatible
with PlayStation games. The PS2 also supports PlayStation memory cards (for PlayStation game
saves only) and controllers, although the memory cards only work with PS1 games and the
controllers may not support all functions (such as analog buttons) for PS2 games.
The PlayStation 2's DualShock 2 controller is cosmetically similar to the original
DualShock2.
The PS2's DualShock 2 controller is essentially an upgraded PlayStation DualShock; analog
face, shoulder and D-pad buttons replaced the digital buttons of the original. Like its
predecessor, the DualShock 2 controller has force feedback, which is commonly called the
"vibration" function. The standard PlayStation 2 memory card has an 8MB capacity and uses
Sony's MagicGate encryption. This requirement prevented the production of memory cards by
third parties who did not purchase a license for the MagicGate encryption. Memory cards
without encryption can be used to store PlayStation game saves, but PlayStation games would
be unable to read from or write to the card - such a card could only be used as a
backup.
The console also features USB and IEEE 1394 expansion ports. Compatibility with USB and IEEE
1394 devices is dependent on the software supporting the device. For example, the PS2 BIOS
will not boot an ISO image from a USB flash drive or operate a USB printer, as the machine's
operating system does not include this functionality. By contrast, Gran Turismo 4 is
programmed to save screenshots to a USB mass storage device and print images on certain USB
printers. A PlayStation 2 HDD can be installed in an expansion bay on the back of the
console, with some exceptions
