    PlayStation 2. Some of the best games ever made, full compatibility with its predecessor which itself had an incredible library, AND easily hackable!

    Shame about the controller, though.

      Easily hackable? Might have to look into that in the future, so long as we aren’t talking hardware modifications.

      Edit: looks like something I’d try in the future if I ever end up with a spare PS2 because I don’t trust myself not to brick my current PS2 somehow, despite the instructions I found being real easy to follow.

        I don’t think there’s much risk of bricking the system, honestly. If you wanted, you could even get a FreeMcBoot card off eBay, and avoid having to do the setup on your own system at all. That’s the beauty of the mod - if you know someone who’s done it, they can very easily make another modded memory card for you!

          My big problem with stuff like that is I know I could probably do it, but I’m worried I’d find the one way that bricks the system. Might look into seeing how much a pre-modified card, though, since I never thought about the whole thing of them being sold online.
