What I'm trying to find out is how to connect the adapter if I ever get one. A diagram would be nice. |

I don't really want to spend $500 upgrading my computer if I can help it. |

Here's a list of some online PS2 games. I just glanced at it and I'm not sure if it's complete. But you get some idea.
Even though I like the X-Box's online plan more, the PS2 has some good things to it. Mostly the fact that a lot of games are free to play online. And that's always good right? |

There is an ever growing library of online PS2 games, and it's going to get real good, real soon.
For one, there are a multitude of sports games online, I personally like Resident Evil: Outbreak every now and then, and Mortal Kombat Deception comes out next month.
My Advice: Get a network adapter. NOW. |

I cant tell you how you can hook it up, mainly because I have cable, and it was really easy, im not sure if its the same for dsl, but I can tell you that not all games are 1st and 3rd person shooters, I got a good adventure type online game, "Champions of Norrath" its pretty cool, you and 3 other people from anywhere can go on a cooperative quest, thats the same as single player offline, but with 4 people, and there are plenty of sprts games online now, like golf, football, etc, and there are more coming out all the time..... |

Since my PC is capable of online games, I'm curious about what options PS2 might have. I did use the DC web browser a little, but it was slow, none of my games can be played online, and I don't have dialup anymore (so the modem won't work). Why I'm asking:
A- I'd like to play more than just first or third person shooters.
B- I can't afford Xbox Live.
C- There's nothing worth the effort on GCN. PSO would be way too expensive, having to buy the BB adapter (let alone finding a store that actually sells one), a router or hub for the connection, and the monthly fee.
My current setup is 1 Windows PC connected to DSL via Ethernet, with no router/hub or hardware firewall. I'll need to know what games are good and exactly how to get the Internet into a PS2's network adapter (I haven't bought it yet). Be clear, I'm a n00b when it comes to this. |
