Cool You new new new new man. LAN is Local Area Network gaming which is pretty much playing with another ps2 through the network port on your ps2's modem....if you have a modem that is. I'm thinking all you really need to do it is a ps2 modem on your ps2, another ps2 with a modem on it, and a crossover cable.

yeah LAN is just simply playing games with another PS2 on your own network without the internet. You can also play LAN is you have a router and connect both ps2 to that

I'm going to clear up some things here.

If you have a slim PS2 it already has the LAN port needed. If you have the old PS2 you have to buy a network adapter for it. Either way you also need a disc with the network configuration app. Some games have this app on disc, but not all do.
