imho. still worth buying. aside from what was stated here that the PS3 is still expensive, there could still be bugs and limited/expensive game disks.

Thanks for the inputs guys...

I guess I'll check out some shops in Virramall to look for a good deal..

What are the things ba that I should consider in buying a unit? What should the package include? nagbibigay ba ng warranty dun? and any other tips you can give before I buy a PS2?

Well, best if you can get a good deal on a unit with two controllers and two memory cards. These are more important than the free games. Original controllers are expensive and the fake replacement units (even though they come in a "SONY" blister package, they're sometimes not real) break damn easily. Memory cards are expensive, too, and at 8mb, they fill up very easily. Some major games, like Gran Turismo 4, use up 1.5 mb per save-file.

Also, if it's a slimline, get a vertical stand. We still haven't had any heat problems with either of our slimlines (mine or my bro's) but it can't hurt to have the extra security.
