PS2 lan parties...

Post by **pseudo_opcode** » 04 Oct 2006, 11:12

hey everyone

Was just wondering if there is any concept like ps2 lan parties?? Dont laugh at me but i m not much into gaming.. its just that my friend is a ps2 freak.
so i thought maybe some time i can arrange a lan party at my place.. i just wanna know what all it takes.. i mean i know it requires things like 2 ps2s, switch, servers, cat 5 cables.. i already have everything but i guess what i m not sure about is the server or something.. what kinda server we have to setup?? windows or what?? what software?? can anyone explain please??

yeah, not much console gamers here I think....

I have never even played on a PS2, so I can't help you with this topic, even googling brought nothing (the only link which seemed good was dead

)

Google, but came up with bunk.

You can certainly try with a Network Switch and Ethernet Cables (I'm assuming that PS2s have Ethernet ports). If I had a PS2 I would have tried it, but all I have is an Xbox.

Bad_Brain: Well, technically there is a console gamer (me), but I've lost my touch with consoles (not to mention PC First Person Shooters are way better and there's a plethora of player mods).
