DVD player or PS2?

**Stuckinstock** · June 15th, 2004 03:13 PM

my friend is thinking of getting a DVD player para di daw boring tumambay sa place niya.

sabi naman, PS2 na lang para pwede pa kami maglaro, yet she can still view her DVDs

agree po ba kayo dun sa suggestion namin?

salamat!

i'd still get both, kahit GH dvd player lang plus PS2. nakakalaspag ng lens kasi yung pagnood ng dvds sa PS2... nakakahinayang naman.

but that's just me.

depende, it will be more costly if 70% of the time eh gagamitin lang ang ps2 for dvd movies viewing. Mahal kasi ang lente ng ps2 compared to the cloned or generic brand dvd players.

But if mostly ang habol eh games(around 70-80%) of the time, then by all means get that dang PS2.

thanks guys!

sige, we'll look for a cheap dvd player na lang muna siguro.

PS2 is designed for gaming. it can't play VCDs.

DVD can play almost anything except of course PS2 CDs. and its cheap.

PS2 can play VCDs and DVD movies... the current model PS2 even has IR remote control ready option.

pero it lessens the life of the lens ba?.. may buhay ba un? i mean ganu katagal?

"shop" use of a PS2 is said to be six months.

My first two PS2 in my shop (for rent) has lived and passed its first 6 months and have mo problem reading pirated discs so far.

magkano ba ngayon ang ps2?

yeah, mura na ang DVD Player, kahit Apex brand lang. Apex brand you can get it for $49.99.

PS2 usually sells for $179USD now. Minsan may kasama pang 2 games, DVD remote, one controller.
