Being a 90s kid, who wouldnt remember praying to god for making the PSIIs start up screen process(load) to the inserted Game disc?Coming to the negatives later, PSII is more of an emotion that cant be explained in mere words.You may like it or hate it, but you cant avoid the fact that it took the gaming industry towards the path of extraordinary innovation.Who wouldnt like to sit and play smack down here comes the pain with your pals on a chilled saturday night?The best thing was the multiplayer option, not 2 or 3 but 6 people could play at a time!! Yeah you did read that right!I am not a die hard gamer myself, infact im not a gamer at all but PSII was the only console i owned it worked for a good 10 odd years before it stopped working.I was heart broken but a gaming console working properly without any maintenance for a decade itself is a very big thing.i used to have many game cds but i mostly played wwe only.I have many unforgettable moments attached to it.Though there are many better gaming consoles now, back in the year 2000 it was defenitely a technological break through.Except for the loading issues i dont find any other negatives at all.One gem of a thing it was.
