    Hey, if you know how to get online with the PS2(i.e. browsing the internet) could you please tell how. Some people say you can, and some people say you can't although they don't tell you how.

    Well, you can use the PAL network disk w/ a DNS change to browse some websites, use ps2linux, or use BBNAV

    BBNAV .1 can somewhat install on a USA ps2, and you can use it as a web browser (.2-.32 dont work online, but can install w/ patching)

    Ofcourse you need a HDD for that

    Or you can just get a jap ps2+hdd and be all set, but that might defeat the purpose!

    What does it mean by access network disc? I don't know if I have one of those, just the Network Startup Disc.

    The next Action Replay/Gameshark will support net browsing, plus a lot more.

    Did you say Megadrive emulator & cdr:D

    Damn. Sony had them in May for a hundred dollers. That's what I get for putting off my purchase.
