Here's how it is... May 13, 2006
By M. Salakka
"restless soul"
This product has received a lot of negative reviews due to its tendency to corrupt memory card data. Does it corrupt it? Yes, and no.
ARMAX is good for the very purpose it was originally created: cheating in games. All the extra junk they slapped on it, that's the problem. You see, the disc is loaded with cheats, and so long as you simply pick cheats for your game and then launch the game, you'll be fine.
The troubles begin when you try to use the much-advertised online updating feature (via either the Ethernet connection directly, or via the USB module that comes with the EVO edition) to get more codes. Most of the time, this is precisely what corrupts the existing data on your memory card. Either all of it, or some of it.
What happened to me was that I used ARMAX for over 6 months without any problems or corrupted data. I was playing titles like Final Fantasy X and X-2, which the disc already had lots of codes for, so updating wasn't needed. Then I purchased a newer game, and wanted to download updates for it via my Ethernet connection. Downloading was easy, and installing was automatic. Then I rebooted the ARMAX disc, and it started crashing at the point where it reads codes into memory.
I examined the memory card with the memory card manager in order to try and remove the new codes, so that perhaps ARMAX would at least work with the old ones. However, some data slots had been corrupted, and the memory manager could only remove some of the corrupted data, but not all.
However, not all of my dozens of saves were gone. In fact, it seemed as if only ARMAX-specific data (probably the new code lists) had been corrupted. I had some saves on the memory card that I had put serious hours into, and didn't want to start the games all over again, so I purchased a backup memory card, slid it into slot 2, and handpicked the non-corrupted data slots (the ones with the saves I wanted to keep) and used the copy feature to copy them to the backup card.
Then I formatted the slot 1 card and restarted ARMAX. It is working fine again, and both memory cards are fine. My memory card wasn't rendered unusable, nor were my dozens of saves.
I can always add codes by hand, which is a pain, but you have to think of it this way... This is a good product, when used solely for its bare bones purpose: to allow you to cheat in PS2 games. I can punch in the codes myself for the latest games, or just not cheat at all. In the end, complaining about the product's obvious design flaws doesn't accomplish anything.
Forget about the much-advertised extras, focus on its huge cheat collection, and don't buy the expensive EVO version with the USB module you won't want to use. As for me, I find that ARMAX was worth every cent.

Works great for 1st 3 months Feb 07, 2005
By Concerned Consumer Do not purchase. I have bought 2 copies of this and in both instances, it worked for the first 3 months and then wouldn't go online to download codes nor would it even load the codes already stored on the flash card. This rendered both copies useless. Customer service is non-existent both on their website and by phone. When you call them (not toll free), you get an answering maching asking to leave your name and number for someone to call you back. So far, no one has returned my call and I have two $40 coasters now. Stay away, stay very far away from this product or any of their other AR products since I've had similar problems with all of their products.

No problem with this product. Nov 24, 2007
By Michael J. Eatmon I have not had any problems with this product. It works fine on my PS2 and my PS3(for PS2 games obviously), for all games I have used. The only thing that did not work on my PS3 was the internet function (can't when them all).

Works Just Fine For Me... {4 Stars} Jul 30, 2006
By Norfeest
"Yes Yes Y'all"
I can't say that the negative reviews are inaccurate, but I know that I haven't gone through any problems with this thing. I guess it depends on what you're using it for. I mainly use it to get complete rosters for my sports game (NCAA Football, NBA Live, Madden, MVP Baseball, etc...). I recently bought NCAA Football 07 and I use this gadget to download the COMPLETE rosters of all 119 Division 1A schools. If I did it myself, it would cost me about 2 weeks of headache before I had all the names. Instead, I go to a gaming site, download the rosters and I'm playing my game within 5 minutes.
If you use this for the cheats, then be advised that it can corrupt your memory card when you try to update your codes. I won't write a paragraph on it, the previous reviewer (M. Salakka "Restless Soul") hit the bullseye with his review. I recommend reading it if you're buying this for the codes/cheats.
As I said before, for what I use it for (rosters) it's an excellent piece of hardware. It is a little fragile, so it can easily be broken (I really don't see it being that big of an issue though). Otherwise, go ahead and get this, you won't be sorry.
