I currently have 141, all complete except for Raw Danger!, which is missing its manual. I'm sure I'll hit 150 at some point, but there's not a lot left that I'm interested in and don't already have.

I only have 59 PS2 games currently. Thanks to Target's decision to clearance 80% of their entire PS2 library for $2.98-14.98 I've been filling in some gaps. When's it's all said and done I'll probably only have around 80 PS2 titles because I usually get the Xbox version of multiplatform titles. As for demos, I'm sitting at 277 demos/online betas, including a few imports thrown in too.

New PS2 games are still being released so i don't think you will find any collector who has a complete collection... Doesn't mean i'm not trying (i have around 800 games, but i know there are collectors with larger collections...)
End of last year there were about 5000 PS2 games released in NTSC-J, about 2800 in PAL and around 2000 in NTSC, so if the Wii library only gets to a size of 3000 games i would say it's much easier than collecting for PS2
But according to the official UK website, there are only 667 PS 2 games released, here is the link:

No, the US PS2 games do not have that tear-strip.
Seeing that i already have over 800 different PAL PS2 games my guess is that that list is far from complete...
This list gives a total of 3.300 PAL titles as released on 31-03-2009
This 31-3-2009 SCEE press release puts the number substantively lower.....

I can relate to your difficulty in acquiring a definitive list of PAL PS2 titles. I went through the same thing trying to get a definitive list of NTSC-U/C titles for the Xbox years ago when I started collecting for it. Practically every source I researched proved to be horribly inaccurate and incomplete. I takes a lot of patience, perseverance and double/triple checking to get it right. Microsoft's very own Xbox site was practically useless. Probably about as useless as the Playstation.com UK site is for you.
Best of luck in your endeavor!

Wow, never knew that stats existed, that's really cool. Too bad they don't have a definitive list. I just don't understand why these companies don't keep a list. I cannot figure out the reason why they don't.
I currently own around 200 for the PS2, love collecting for the console and trying to right now find every platformer & survival-horror game for the console, so far have a bunch but know I'm probably not close to having them all for the 2 genres..also like collecting PS2 racers and also collect for Xbox and Xbox 360 as I own over 100 for both...109 and 116 to be exact.
Proud owner of a PS3, Xbox 360, Nintendo Wii, PSP and 3DS
I really hope someone will succeed in this quest and post up their collection and write a story about their collecting milestones!
