finna boutta buy a Ps duece

>>719002928 (OP)
PS2s are worth at least $450 with how many wonderful games it has

>>719002928 (OP)
it's fair if it's pristine

>>719002928 (OP)
>2 brand new controllers

guaranteed to be chink shit that doesn't have pressure sensitive buttons and the analog sticks will only register 8 directions

>>719002928 (OP)
If it's completely original and never left the box since release I'd say it's a reasonably fair price

>>719002928 (OP)
what did you want to play on ps2?

>>719003702
You can see they’re generic from the photo.

Even at the thrift retailer in my town those ps2's go for $180 to $200. I'm going to buy a couple soon. They are only going up and price.

>>719002928 (OP)
>brand new controllers

>>719005848

>>719007681
two generations of fucking up

>>719002928 (OP)
you dumbass

>"brand new"
>fakes controllers
>not network adapter/HDD

you could get a used ps2 with everything for less than 100 bucks

>>719005848
I know Tenkiachi has more to offer but Budokai 3 is still a great game. It's the perfect pick up and play fighting game honestly. Should be on that list next to it.

I bought a PS1 with a power cable and AV cable at a Goodwill for $25 a few years ago and planned on reselling it. Never got around to it but you guys think I could get like $50 out of it?

>>719007926
I just woke and am clearly retarded. Nevermind ignore this message.

>>719008026
40-60 if you got everything

>game development costs ballooning to $10~100 million a pop (most of it goes to advertising and marketing)
>stern insistence on exorbitantly expensive photorealistic graphics, and adopting the latest gimmicks
>trend-chasing, focus groups and other dysfunctional means of steering development
>the focus is no longer on developing a game people want to play. games have become nothing but a means to squeeze more money out of suckers: DLC, season passes, update content trickles to maintain engagement, microtransactions, lootboxes and gacha, etc. no more money cheats, you can buy shark cards for $50 instead
>metrics-based development. instead of letting devs flesh out their ideas, they have to hit "milestones" (pointless numbers) and follow "industry-standard practices" (i.e. fill a list of checkboxes authored by some HR roastie and pencil-pushing boomer middle manager)
>devs no longer stay at studios to nurture hteir talent. they get booted and hop to another company the moment the game ships (sometimes even before that). blame the quarterly earnings treadmill, outsourcing, and offshoring
>standardized generic engine crap. every game looks the same because almost all parts are interchangeable
>investors demanding returns in the gorillion percent range. games have to be as generic as possible to appeal the dumbest, most retarded of mentally stunted consumerist cattle
>sequelitis. no one wants to launch a new IP. the hurdles hoops to jump through are so numerous even the most prepared dev falls down

I need a new PS2 controller, any recommendations? Just buy a nice looking OEM one off ebay?
I've been using PS3 and PS4 controllers though PAD EMU and OPL, but I want a real one I can also use on my PS1.
