    so ive been looking around the usual places to be told they don't stock these anymore...
    where can i locate a few cheap ps2 games online... surely if i can't get them in shops i should pick them up for nothing...
    the ps2 is basically irrelevant these days...
    sound lawwdddz

    Lol. Gamestop on Henry st Dublin have a whole shelf dedicated to PS2 games for the past year, they change them every few days too, lot of sport crap there but all are priced between €2 to €5 or so.

    Pretty easy to get them tbh.

    Where have you been looking?

    CEX (I think it's called) on liffey st. Across from Marks and Spencers and down from Arnotts. Have loads. Probably overpriced for some but if you want bricks and mortar.

    They were briefly good , but now are terrible pricewise.3d games are worse , 10-15 quid for a lot of the games.
    Best bet is to chance your arm and try cex's uk website
    http://uk.webuy.com/
    ..they don't ship to Ireland officially , but if you pay with pay pal it seems to go through (I had a few things sent and most made it)
    games start at 25P , two -five sterling for better ones though!

    Will ps2 games from the UK work on the Irish ps2's?
    No, they will only work in the county the were bought in.. IE if you buy a game in Dublin, it won't work in Galway!























    :p Yes they will :)
