I'm one of those people who has never taken their PS2 online(I was always too busy with Xbox Live). But much like the original Xbox, the PS2 still has a pretty healthy number of gamers that play online, considering how old it is: http://www.gamepro.com/article/news/207592/playstation-2-still-thriving-online/

I'm not going to spoil the article for you, but one of the most interesting things it mentioned was that you can play PS2 games online if you have a backwards compatible PS3. I wonder if people are still playing Killzone in preparation for the upcoming sequel.

Are there any DP members that still take their PS2 online? And if so what games are you playing?

I regularly play Star Wars Battlefront online with PS2.

I still play Socom 2 every now and then. Not much since I bought a PS3 recently.

I recently picked up Killzone and it was the first time I ever took my PS2 online, and was pleasantly surprised to find an active player list. Too bad I totally suck at the game!

This year I tried MLB The Show 08 online and it was terrible. I have a good cable connection with no problems with my PC net gaming so I think most of the lag was the Sony network and/or the Show game. But it was crowded last time I tried in June or July plenty of people still online with their PS2s.
