memory

Geeze, you guys and gals who are shooting down this product CLEARLY did not read the packaging or get the hint "EXPANSION". It states AND shows right on the package that this item turns an 8mb memory card into a 16mb memory card. You simply insert your 8mb card into this item and plug it into your memory slot. It is pretty much used for the bigger games like the hunting games and others that take a lot of memory to save situations. So, it is NOT faulty in and of itself (of course faulty units may well be on the market just like everything else), but it works just as it is advertised to. And if you shop here at Amazon, an 8mb memory card is not $25 but can be bought for a much more reasonabe price. And no, I don't work for Amazon or Intec. I shop here for games and books simply because they most always have the best prices.

A salesperson told us this would be all we need to save games, but so far it's not recognized by any of the games for our brand-new PS2. Either you need to pony up the $25 for a real memory card so that this can work WITH it, or else ours is just plain defective.

Phooey on Sony for not including SOME storage with the PS2. Phooey on Intec for not stating plainly (either here, or in the product packaging, or on their website) whether you NEED an existing memory card for this thing to work.

do not buy this memory card. It doesn't work on very many games like grand theaft auto, Ace4, ect... sucks!!!
