That\'s f\'ing brutal, man. Keep complaining to Sony, it\'s been more than a month - that\'s just rediculous.

The problem is that I can´t complain on Sony, Its a company named Egmonton that distributes the PS2 here in Sweden. I can complain on them but not on Sony.

Sony isn\'t known for products built to last nor customer service. I owned three Psones, sadly and I see constant complaints about the PS2 breaking and people having to send it back, then waiting an extreme amount of time to get it back and it still not work..
:(

Ok Bossieman Write and Email or Snail mail to you Local Sony Complaints deparment and explain the Full situation, Explain to them that you problem is with the Distributer EGMONTON and give full Deatils with your greef with this company, the chances are that other people have had the same problem if its the Distributer.

Complaining to Sony "NICELY" will inform them that the Problem lies with EGMONTON and you require help in this situation.

Remember to keep a copy of your letter and request a date for EGMONTON them to send your PS2 to you, if not then request an update in your "case" and set a date saying that you would like to know of any futher developments in this problem.

Hope that helps mate.

My PS2 stopped playing DVDs aboout 2-3 weeks ago. I think its just a matter of time before it stops playing games. It hurts thinking about it though. :(

How many people have had a broken PS2 on here in one form or another?

I would bet it could be as high as 30.

On a lighter not, Spy Hunter is a great game as far as I can tel. A friend and I played the 2 player for like 5 hours yesterday. SH2 is not that good IMO, but some of the baddies are pretty freaky.

I thought Sony have good quality products that dont break. I\'ve got a Sony TV, stereo, minidisc and PS2. Never had a problem with them. My old Sony discman worked fine for about 3 years until I sold it in perfect working order when I got my mini disc, and my PSX still works fine after 3 years.
But thats just my experiences. All companies would have problems with products breaking down. I think sony is one of the most reliable with some of the best quality

I have had alot of SONY stuff over the years and I\'ve only ever had one thing stuff up, and that was my PS2, the motor for the disc tray broke, and it wouldn\'t open or close. So I sent it off and 10 days later had it back.

I think you really need to contact SONY directly and be calm and explain the situation.

Any ways Hope you get it back soon.

I believe Sony, with many products in store (radios, videos, cameras, 80m of psO, 20 of PS2...) should have a tecnic service in each country. An official service that provides you a really good assistance.

Well, first, ps2 cover is made of plastic, not metal.  It will make ps2 cost more if it were made of metal.  If not taken care well, ps2 break easily.  The stuff you have is in good condition because you take good care of it and sony\'s electronic product is reliable but expensive.  Off all the things Sony made, ps2 is the cheapest I see.  Their TVs, DVD player, CD players, etc cost more than other Big Brand Name.

A 34" WEGA Widescreen HDTV flatscreen cost $8,000 with no built in HD receiver makes it so expensive.  Plus, not to mention no dark tint tube, just grey.

While Panasonic also make 34" Widescreen HDTV flatscreen cost $3,500, over 2x less than Sony.
