I have a smal lquestion about using a PS2 to play on-line games. When I connect to a PS2 game over the network am I on the regular internet or is it a Sony server that only other PS2's can connect to?

Its a server, its a gay one but im pretty sure its a server. Thats why you have to register for every ame because every game has like its own little empty server

You are logging onto Sony's game servers. Basically you are not logging on to the internet, your logging onto their intranet (of sorts).

Anybody with more advanced information on the workings of the PS2 Online please chime in.

Well, i no it is possible to hack the ps2 so you can go to webpages throught it. But i think your ps2 has to be non-american to be able to do that

And then your just accessing the internet through your own web-connection, not through the Sony servers.
