The Action Replay 2 is a Game Enhancer device for the Playstation 2. It was the first GameShark created by Mad Catz. Cheat code support was the main focus of this GameShark and the codes were in encrypted form to prevent the use of codes on other Game Enhancers. There was also a memory card manager which allows for the compressing and uncompressing of game saves, and a region free DVD player.The software came on a DVD and new codes could be saved to a memory card. A special memory card was also included which contained game saves for several games.

Successor to the first GameShark

The GameShark 2 was essentially the successor to an earlier GameShark which was also released on the Playstation 2, but this GameShark was actually a re-branded Action Replay. The first version released was referred to as version 3.0.
