Time with product: 3 Weeks

Strengths: Works like it should.

Weaknesses: Some saves take a while to save

Summary: WOuld not format at first, but that could have been my PS2. I haven't been able to see how many save games I can fit on it as I am only playing 2 games right now. Saves arent' slow, but they're not speedy either.

Strengths: It is for the greatest system around and supplies a good amount of information. This is a cheap price for it to!

Weaknesses: Not for XBOX. I like PS2 better but it lags because XBOX has an 8 GIG HD! Meaning you wouldnt need this. Still awsome though!

Summary: I suggest you buy it HARDCORE GAMERS like me! On here it is a great price and you will need it for all those saves. Also look into Pelican for an 8 MGBYTE Expander which expands it to 16 MGBYTES. Great deal! Get yours now!!!

Strengths: 1st party memory card (made by the maker of the PS2), no bugs, good amount of card space (8 MB).

Weaknesses: Some games have problems detecting the memory card thus leading to frustration. The price could be lower.

Summary: Always go with 1st party accessories for game consoles. Companies like MadKatz are very unpopular and unreliable. My first memory card was a MadKatz and it broke about 2 weeks later because it could no longer be detected in my PS2. With the Sony PlayStation 2 8 MB memory card, there are minimal problems, if any. Buying 1st party controllers are a must too. The controllers looks stupid and break easily. STICK WITH SONY!!!!

Strengths: Works well, I have had absolutely no performance problems with this card.

Weaknesses: It's not the prettiest, but hey it works, and thats all that really matters.

Summary: While other memory cards may hold more data, and still others come in fashionable colors, I say stick with the original. This card does its job, and does it well. I have had no problem saving or retrieving game or system files from this card.
