Well this is one of those products that is always good no matter how screwed up you are. I mean, it's GameShark for PS2 for crying outloud! How could it be bad? The best accessory for the best system. Then to top it off, InterAct throws in codes for PSone. I tell you, it's pure gold.
Overall, you should buy this. If you just got a PlayStation2, however, wait to purchase this item until you have a few games to use it with. Don't want to be wasting hard earned cash on something your not going to use.
Great Product

In short, this is a great product. I buy one for every console I use (got three of them now). Mostly, I value the service from gameshark's website as they promptly get the latest codes published often before a game is even officially released.
Sometimes one just doesn't have the patience to play a game 15 times just to get the "killer weapon" (i.e. rocket launcher in RE) or final secrets *after* the game has already lost much of its repeat play value.
Indeed Gameshark can actually improve a game's "fun quotient". For example, Fear Effect I at points was way too hard with much playtime being used to reload saved games. I was able to give myself additional almo which increased my satisfaction with the game.

This is the GREATEST thing that was made for the PS2 the
First review at the top says that you have to keep the
Hardware in the first slot to work but that's not true you
can put the Hardware in the 2nd slot and the memory card in
the frist slot and it almost never gets glity you should get
this. i have one myself its the best it comes with the hardware
a disc for the PS2 with LOTS of codes and anothor disc that has over 13,000 Playsation codes too its easy to load cheats and you don't have to typein the code just press x on the codes
you want and thats all that simple and when you want to
add a new code just press x on the game and go to add code and a keyboard will appear at your screen and will make it much easyier to type it in I will GARENTEE you will enjoy this
amzing thing ok when you get this amazing item put the hardware in the 2nd slot if you have a memory card then take the disc that says Paystation 2 and open press the button that will the drive tray and insert the discand press the reset butten after that you will be at the game shark mian menu then go to Game shark 2 codes and there will be a list of games pick the game you want to play then there will be a list of codes press x to the codes you want and press o two times go to start game and it will ask you if you want to play the game with codes or with out codes pick one then open your disc tray take out the disc and put in the game you wanted to play and press x and thats all you will find amazing things with GameShark 2and if you are a real gamer you will get this item so have fun with it!!!!!!

I just love this gamshark for my Playstation 2. It comes in great for games like Gran Turismo 3. This is bomb. It also has a disk for PS one games too. The only bad thing is that you have to spend eight bucks extra for the updated disk. oh well i think any gamer who gets tired of irritating levels should get this. its worth it. and hey its a great deal at this website too.I've seen this for 50 bucks at other websites and stores. get it from amazon.com
How can it not work for some? Works GREAT here!

I think some people just have problems with PC type products period. I've had no problems using the GameShark on my PS2. I simply insert the CD, power cycle the PS2, and up comes with the GameShark menu. Using it this way, I have had no problems.
Now as for entering codes... get the GameShark USB Keyboard. Trying to enter them from the game pads is asking for trouble.

This thing is great! It is a great buy for people who can't get passed a certain level, can't beat the boss, or just love to cheat. This isn't just a cheat device. It also lets you compress your PS2 game saves (works only on PS2 Memory Card). This way, if you don't have enough memory to save a game, you can compress your files without having to delete files or get a new card. The downside is that you have to uncompress the files before you can load it again. Then, though I have not tried it out, I belive it lets you play imported DVDs. When you want to use the GameShark2, you put the GameShark into the Memory Card slot (slot 2 is suggested, though it really doesn't matter), you put the PS2 CD in the PS2, choose your codes (you can also insert other codes you find elsewhere that are not already on the GameShark), and start the game!
That's not all the GameShark2 has to offer! It comes with another CD for PSOne games! It can be used on the PSOne also. The downside of it is that you have to have either the GameShark or GameShark Lite to save your codes. Other than that, this is a great product for cheaters or people who get stuck in games a lot.
