Heya Tyler. Yes the guy at the store already warned me about that heating issue, he said that is really the only potential problem with the slim model. No you don't want to leave the thing powered on all the time but as he said that is really not the greatest thing in the world to do with any of them although yes you could get away with it more with the bigger ps2 because of the internal cooling fan. The way I believe he put it was that these guys who like to sit and game for ten or 15 hours straight get the bigger ones because of the internal fan. I don't put myself in that category though so am not real worried about it. Yes these things do seem to be very well made and reliable, a rarity these days.
As for the ps2 stuff you have, well if you seriously want to part with some of it get a list together along with what you want for each title or item and let me know either off list or on and I will see if I am interested. I am not sure about what shipping will be from up where you are to here so I am frankly not sure if it is even worth doing but we can certainly talk about it. I have a PayPal account as well so that is no problem. Game on.

Hi there Just a word of warning. Don't leave that there system powered up for more than 4 or 5 hours. It gets hot. I personally loved my fatter one and honestly regret selling the poor thing. I stil have all the games though and am wondering if anyones wanting to buy them (now that I have a pay pal acount). Anyway, memory cards rock. I also seriously recommend checking out burnout 3. The takedown mode is totally fun, also if you play with a friend crash mode is helarious. I got someone to beat it for me, I wish there was a way to send the save to you, I probably stil have my memory card lying around here someplace. Congrats on buying it! I like the fat one, though, simplay because of the cooling fan (I had that thing powered up for 8 days, constantly. If that doesn't give you an idea of how reliable that is, I dunno what will). BUt yeah. Tekken 4 and 5, and tag tourniment, and tekken 3! Don't forget about mortal kombat deception simply because of nightwolf!
