My unsung hero of the PS2 was World Poker Tour.

I spent a lot of time playing Texas hold em with internet strangers, which doesn't sound like a big deal now, but I think back then, most people didn't even know you COULD connect a PS2 to the Internet.

Didn't you have to have a module to connect?

That sounds right. I couldn't remember if I had to buy an add on for that or not.

Mine had an "expansion slot" in the back that the network module would plug into. Was so crazy playing multiplayer SOCOM with voice chat back then
