PlayStation 2 models were produced from 2000 to 2013. Some PlayStation 2 (PS2) revisions only change in their internal construction while others feature substantial external changes. Each region receives a different model number; for example, the V18 was released in North America as SCPH-90001, in Australia as SCPH-90002, and in Hong Kong as SCPH-90006. The final digit is a region code with no bearing on the hardware; many games and DVDs are restricted to certain regions, and the system software displays in different languages.

The PS2 is primarily differentiated between models with the original "fat" case design and "slimline" models introduced at the end of 2004. In 2010, a television incorporating a PS2 was introduced.[1]
In September 2004, Sony unveiled its third major hardware revision (V12, model number SCPH-700xx). Available in late October 2004, it is smaller, thinner, and quieter than the older versions and includes a built-in Ethernet port (in some markets it also has an integrated modem). Due to its thinner profile, it does not contain the 3.5" expansion bay and therefore does not support the internal hard disk drive. It also lacks an internal power supply, similar to the GameCube, and has a modified Multitap expansion. The removal of the expansion bay results in incompatibility with games that require the HDD expansion, such as Final Fantasy XI.
There are two sub-versions of the SCPH-700xx,[citation needed] one with the old Emotion Engine (EE) and Graphics Synthesizer (GS) chips, and the other with the newer unified EE+GS chip, but otherwise are identical. The sub-versions are variously referred to as V12 for both models, V11.5 for the older and V12 for the newer model, and V12 for the older and V13 for the newer model.[citation needed] The V12 model was first released in black, but a silver edition was available in the United Kingdom, Germany, Australia, United Arab Emirates and other GCC countries, France, Italy, South Africa, and North America. A limited edition pink console also became available after March 2007.
V12 (or V13) was succeeded by V14 (SCPH-7500x), which contains different ASICs than previous revisions, with some chips having a copyright date of 2005, compared to 2000 or 2001 for earlier models. It also has a different lens and some compatibility issues with a different number of PlayStation games and even some PS2 games.[5] An addon to add HDD support to newer 7500x and onward models called the HDPro was created but had limited success.
In the beginning of 2005, it was found that some black slimline console power transformers manufactured between August and December 2004 were defective and could overheat. The units were recalled by Sony and replaced by a 2005 model.[6]
Later hardware revisions had better compatibility with PlayStation games (Metal Gear Solid: VR Missions operates on most silver models); however, the new Japanese slim models have more issues with playing PlayStation games than the first PS2 revisions.[citation needed]
In 2006, Sony released new hardware revisions (V15, model numbers SCPH-7700xa and SCPH-7700xb). V15 was first released in Japan on September 15, 2006, including the Silver edition. After its release in Japan, it was then released in North America, Europe and other parts of the world. The new revision uses an integrated, unified EE+GS chip, a redesigned ASIC, a different laser lens, an updated BIOS, and updated drivers.[citation needed]
Another refinement of the slimline PlayStation 2 (SCPH-9000x) was released in Japan on November 22, 2007.[8] As well as some cosmetic changes, the design of the hardware was overhauled, incorporating the power supply into the console itself like the original (fat) PlayStation 2 revisions; this also increases the total weight to 720 grams (25 oz). On SCPH-9000x series consoles manufactured after the third quarter of 2008 as the last revision of the PlayStation 2, some changes were made (indicated by date code 8C) to incorporate a revised BIOS, which disables an exploit present in all older models that allowed homebrew applications to be launched from a memory card.[citation needed]
Throughout the life of the PS2 several "Debugging Stations" were created for game developers. Both fat and slim models exist. These models can be identified by a model number beginning with "DTL-" instead of "SCPH-" as well as the word "TEST" written on top of the system. Debugging Station systems are region free.
hi bro my ps2 model is SCPH 90001 and my dad bought it around 2008 maybe and i havent touch it since back then , and now ive decided to use it to play and it appears on screen " the red screen" which says insert playstation format disc .. jow can i resolve that, my neighbor says that my ps2 needs to be modified... i dont know what to do bro pls help.. hoping for your answer btw my ps2 is slim
ps2 slim dvd is moving the laser, but the dvd does not rotate. it works fine when I insert this track completely into the other ps2 slime. the only thing I suspect is the new ribbon cable that connects to the eye of a dvd laser. Could this be incompatible? If the model is incompatible, does the laser proceed with the red light?
anyway which is the best model? I have narrowed it down to two. One is a silver ps2 slim "hardly used" with original box for 90 dollars. The other is a phat ps2 with 3 games (2 of which I might like Final Fantasy and Gran tourismo) a memory card a controller and it works perfect for 50 dollars. I wouldnt mind having the silver one with the box since I do collect video game stuff, but 50 dollars with all those extras sounds better since money is kinda tight right now. Am I being stupid? 50 dollars for a piece of crap doesn't save me any money. Anything I should watch out for or avoid? Any advice would be appreciated.
Sony Computer Entertainment Japan today announced that a limited edition Satin Silver version of its slimline PS2 would go on sale in Japan on November 23 but that it would have compatibility issues with some existing games. The announced list of games incompatible with the silver slimline system (model SCPH-75000) is fairly short, but it includes one surprisingly high-profile (and recent) game:
The system will come packed with a silver analog controller and a vertical stand. Additional silver controllers and memory cards will be available for 2,800 yen ($24). Like the standard PS2, the Satin Silver edition does not carry a suggested retail price from Sony. This will be the third color model for the slimline PS2 in Japan, following the standard Charcoal Black model and the Ceramic White model that was released in May. 2ff7e9595c
