So my PS2 is busted...

[Scott McFly]

I thought the slimline PStwo had problems playing some PS2 games? Tekken 5 was the name that seems to have been batted around the most.

Although on further inspection it is just a specific model of the slimline ones, which was only available in Japan at the time the problem was discovered. I would imagine the problem was fixed before it got anywhere near the US or Europe.

And you would be correct. The very first model of the PSTwo had trouble with certain games.

I can assure you Tekken 5 works perfectly in U.S. systems, though. Oh yeah, I can definately assure that

It doesn't always work like that though, sadly. The prices in the UK are usually more expensive than they should be in comparison to other currencies.
