When you buy a Playstation 2, you will need to consider which memory card to buy - you will need a memory card to save games, so of all the Playstation 2 accessories, the memory card is the most important. So which memory card should you choose and how much space do you need?
-Step 1: Decide on official or non-official
You can buy a memory card made by Sony Playstation or a non-official memory card, made by an outside manufacturer. The only difference is one is made by Playstation the other one isn’t, and of course, cost-wise, the Sony tend to be more expensive. Some people say the non-Sony Playstation variety are not as good. But before you buy your cheap Playstation 2 memory card that isn’t official, ensure it is compatible.
-Step 2: Decide on size
Decide how much space you need. Memory cards usually come in 8mb, 16mb, 32mb and 64mb. They also come in twin packs, so you could have 2x64mb. How much space will you need on your PS2? Well an 8mb will do for a start, but it won’t last very long on its own. You will definitely need more space, at least 16mb. Before you buy your Playstation 2 memory card, consider how many games you will be playing and therefore how much space you will need.
-Step 3: Buy online or in store
Choose whether to buy in store or online. If you want your card quickly, buying in-store may be the quickest option, although online will undoubtedly be cheaper. Once you decide where to buy it, go ahead and buy the size you want and the make you want.
Although there are some big expensive Playstation 2 memory cards out there, you don’t need to go for the biggest, best one on the market. A 16mb should be enough for the average player, but if you decide to go for a card that isn’t made by Sony you may be taking a risk, one that could seem worth it for the savings, but may result in buying another memory card to replace one that doesn’t work.
The largest memory card available for the PlayStation 2 is the Pro DUO card which is 16GB.
