Customer Reviews

Buy two and save
With Sony-brand memory cards running at $25 a pop, buying memory cards for the PS2 system can get expensive. This package deal, which features one red and one blue card (green and gray are also available), allows the buyer to save a reasonable amount of money. But why would you need two cards? If you have a lot of games, it is easy to fill up a card, and having an extra gives you extra space. Or, one could be reserved for saving online games, or for cheat codes (which isn't a bad idea, since codes can sometimes corrupt your saved games if put on the same card). This may be somewhat expensive up front, but you'll save money in the long run. And, as an added bonus: If you have two kids (or more), multiple colored cards will allow each one to have his/her own different card, so no one fights over them or overwrites the other's games.

Sony Finally Listened. This is the result....
After thousands of reviews and E-mails complaining about the price of a Sony Memory Card, this little packaged was created. Included are two colored memory cards. They are made by Sony and include Magigate Technology. The only drawback is the fact that they are colored so if you like everything to match then you gotta buy the black ones. This is a great product and is a needed item if you are going to be buying a PS2. All games need a memory card to save your progress. Without one, then you will always start from the beginning of the game. I highley recomend this product as it is made by Sony and works just as well as the original.

Good memory card but one should be enough...
If you're completely one of those HARDCORE gamers who spend more than 4 hours a day playing videogames, 2 memory cards should fit you nicely, considering the amount of games you could possible play in that time. However, if you're a easy gamer like me (no more than 2-3 hours a day) 1 should be enough. If you're that hardcore gamer and need that much space to fit all your gaming needs, this is surely going to save you money, as buying 2 memory cards separately cost approximately 50 dollars, about the cost of a brand new just-released game. These memory cards word pretty well so don't expect files that magically disappear or save files that become corrupted that lead you to start the game over again. A memory card is a must buy if you own a PS2 but whether you need 2 is your choice.
