any uses for a cheap "fat" ps2?
I found a ps2 on ebay that's being sold locally, so if I did local pickup I could save $15 on shipping and probably get it pretty cheap.
But are there any sweet mods I could do with it? I cant make it portable because its the fat model, and I'd rarely actually play it just as a normal console.

you could install a mod chip then put a big hard drive in. that way you could put all ur games on it and never have to worry about disks again

dude i have a picture on my build thread of a modchip i installed in a system for my portable, havnt heard one negative word about it. and anyway, when it comes to a fat ps2 mods, that would make it "look cool", there really isnt much except maybe painting the case up, or if you really feel like getting creative, maybe you could try the pelican case mod???

I think you are confused dude.
We ARE allowed to talk about mod chips and such.
We are NOT allowed to sell/buy/trade them.

ok whatever, I'm just being careful so I don't get banned.
I probably just wont get it. painting and window mods are way cooler for the xbox.
