There is also now a V14 model (SCPH-75001) which contains an integrated EE and GS (disputed - see talk page) , and different ASICs compared to previous revisions, some chips having a copyright date of 2005 compared to 2000,2001 for earlier models.
However the New Slim Silver Models have more issues with playing PlayStation games than the first PS2 revisions.
Hardware sales remained strong until 2004 saw the console apparently approaching saturation point.
There are also some disputes on the numbering for this PS2 version, since there are actually two sub-versions of the SCPH-70000.
The PlayStation 2 holds the record of fastest selling video game console ever, 100 million PlayStation 2 units were shipped in only five years and nine months, shattering the previous record of nine years and six months by the PlayStation.
It was not until late 2001 that the Microsoft Xbox became the second console with (non-standard) USB and DVD support.
Many analysts predicted a close 3-way matchup between the PS2 and its soon-to-be-released competitors Microsoft Xbox and Nintendo GameCube, noting that the PS2's graphics were inferior but that it had the advantage of a head start, and had a wide assortment of games of every genre (Xbox's strength was in its hardware; GameCube was the cheapest of the 3 consoles).
