Title: problems with PS2
Post by: tyrant080 on December 30, 2001, 08:32:11 PM

Am I the only one having problems with my PS2?  For example, it won\'t play PS1 games, it often has problems playing PS2 disks, that are brand new out of the box.  Sometimes games freeze in the middle and I have to restart, Twisted Metal: Black for example, freezes everytime I play within a few seconds, every time.  I\'m just wondering if its a common problem with a lot of PS2\'s or mine is jacked up and what I can do about it.

Common or not, I\'d say if your PS2 is doing that, it\'s Jacked wouldn\'t you?  Take the thing back and exchange it for another one.

Clearly there\'s nothing wrong with your PS2. It\'s just deciding to be a little belligerent. Why don\'t you teach it a lesson by hitting it with a hammer? If that doesn\'t work, try dropping it off of a bridge. You are not a PS2\'s b1tch! Stand up and fight back my brotha!

The PS2 hardware is very ****! It has a lot of problems. Good luck dealing with Sony. I have just recently managed to get a working PS2 from them.
