Yes! It does work with the PS2 Slim!

Just a quick note to say this works flawlessly with the newer Slim type PS2 consoles (the older one doesn't). Obviously the Eject button is redundant because these are toploaders whereas the others were trays, but yes, everything else works perfectly. You get quick access to functions that are fiddly to reach on the controller and - most importantly - you can power the console up from standby, which you cannot do with the Xbox 1 units without an aftermarket "XIR Remote" kit.
So it can work exactly like a normal DVD player, with the benefit of a great range of titles from the last generation of gaming, all of which can be picked up for pennies while everyone else pays £50 for brand new titles on the now-current Xbox360 and (technically superior) PS3. It's not the most ergonomic remote but it has every button you can think of, including the shape controls from the pad. It's a good, solid unit that won't break easily.
Every PS2 owner should have one of these.

Works perfectlyReview date: 2010-02-06 Rating: 10 out of 10You do have to make sure you PS2 is compatible which mine was, but after that it worked straight out of the box.

So much better than having to use the controller which has the lead on it. Many more features and easy to use.The Sony PS2 DVD Remote- A Must haveReview date: 2009-05-15 Rating: 10 out of 10A great remote, no add-on necessary for your PS2, works out of the box, no pairing, no cable, no remote codes: does what it says on the tin. Open the packet, put in the batteries, turn on the PS2 console: and you now have a fully functioning DVD player with remote control. Highly recommended.
P.S. As is stated in the product name, this remote is only compatible with PS2 Models, SCPH-50000, and above: as only these models have an in-built infrared receiver. The model name, is stated on the back of the PS2, near the power button. It may also be found, on parts of the packaging that came with your PS2.
