The PlayStation 2 is the successor to Sony's PSone and was originally released on March 4, 2000 in Japan. It is capable of running PSone and PS2 games, as well as playing DVDs and CDs.

The PlayStation 2 had two versions, the PlayStation 2, and the PlayStation 2 Core. The only real difference – aside from the smaller size – is that the PlayStation 2 Core comes with the network adaptor built in, but does not have an expansion bay to add an internal hard disk drive. In addition, the PS2 Core features slightly faster loading times, a slimmer profile, and a top-loading DVD tray (instead of the sliding tray that the original PS2 used).
