You will need.

2 x PS2 consoles (obviously)
1 x crossover cable
2 x tv's (as you ask for)
2 copies of the game you want to play (which support LAN play)

Simply connect the ps2's to the power/tv's and use the crossover cables to connect them to each other. Load the games into both the consoles, head into a LAN section and start a new game.

This set-up works most of the time.

None that I can think of at the moment. Did you have a specific method or requirement in mind?

So you've got the slim version?

In the image on the right, isn't it the top most port?

Do they have a network port on them? (I know mine doesn't)

If not, then you'll need a network adaptor for them.

Try your local game shops first, some may still have them.
