Is anyone at Mad Catz-Game Shark at home? - Arthur Blenheim - Boston
First off, the product description here at Amazon is incorrect. According to the box, this unit "works with ALL PlayStation 2 consoles." This is a word-for-word quotation from the back of the box. It may be designed specifically for the slim Playstation 2 models, but it is also designed for the normal models. There is a button to push that allows the input of this multi port product to slide into the position for either shape of model.br /br /Secondly, I haven't gotten the product to work correctly yet. It's doing the same thing the other Mad Catz-, Game Shark-brand multi-port adapter did. I plug in the multi-port to my slim-model Playstation 2, which is the model number 77001, and the fan turns on high and the system crashes. Then, the power shuts down. I have no idea why.br /br /For the information of the customers of Amazon, the friend who bought this product for me for Christmas got it from a local Best Buy store. The date on the product is 2007, which is the Christmastime I write this article. This fact excludes the possibility of my Playstation 2 model being produced after the release of this Mad Catz, Game Shark multi-port product.br /br /Although it is the 26th day of December, I can't get through to the technical department at Mad Catz-Game Shark. The number provided on the back of the box of this product sends me to an answering machine which, before "the beep," tells me that the technical service department is "at lunch." This is strange, because, in Pacific time where the service department is located, I tried calling multiple times from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. Yet, the woman in the message tells me that department is open from 8 to 12 and from 1 p.m. into the afternoon.br /br /I guess lunch time for the technical service department happens to be during their open hours, if I assume that December 26th is a work day in which the technicians would be taking their lunchtime. If it is not a work day, then the technicians are at lunch even though they don't work. The trouble with the latter possibility is that I don't care if technicians are having lunch when they are off from work. To me, the "off work" thing kind of means it doesn't matter when those technicians are at lunch.br /br /Here's the phone number I called appearing on the back of the box: "1-800-659-2287 (USA)." Another number appears underneath that number: "1-619-683-2815."br /br /I had added this product to my Christmas list after reading the words "works with ALL PlayStation 2 consoles," and because it has a five-foot extension cord before the four-port hub--meaning, the unit extends all four controllers by its five-foot cord. The unit sounds like an ideal product, if one can get it to work!br /br /I must clarify a main point before ending my article here. Before calling Mad Catz-Game Shark technical department, I used the website address on the box of the product. It wasn't any more helpful than the 800 number I called.
