its ****ed up in the small ways which are showing signs to the big ones and seeing how i got it at launch its way past warranty - dang this sucks - i don\'t want to send it in but it seems to be in that direction already


I have the same problem and I hate it. When I first got it was fine then one day it pauses at the same character tha Heichtchi(whatever his name is guy) and I can never finish the game I hate that. I also hate when I put in a dvd and get the dashboard that kind of sucks. But all the dvds do play just sometimes it goes strait to dashboard.  I would sign.   Shoot you could take a psx back anytime and exchange it for another.

ok then by your analogy my PS2 is like this

here is your sandwhich enjoy it but you can\'t eat it all because it starts to fall apart

or for some people its like this:

here is your sandwhich w/o bread now i need you to give it back to me with a hundred dollars to add bread

have a nice day :)

I\'ve had no problems with my PS2\'s (SCPH15000 and SCPH18000).
My only dissatisfaction would be the regional lockout for the games and movies.

Wrong.

Where as your mother was making the sandwich because she loves you. Sony is selling you a product. You are paying for this product. If you was paying for the sandwich your mother made you, then you\'d have a right to complain.

Sony sells PS2s and when they are faulty like quite a few or situations like the GT3 Japan situation arise, people cannot overlook the fact that there is something goin\' on and whatever it is , it is resulting in bad PS2 units. Therefor a petion and group awareness is in need.
People have the right to complain and shouldn\'t apperciate that Sony makes PS2s. We pay for them. They should apperciate us.

Mine developed problems, but I cleaned it and turned it horizontal, and except for the flickering (normal) of DVDs I\'m happy with it.  I think this is the worst Sony product I\'ve bought to date, but I\'ve been SUPER happy with their in store customer care, and my 5 year old discman has survived numerous drops/-30 celcius/+35 celcius/moisture, so I get the feeling that the early PS2s had problems cause they were so rushed.  

I also believe that the actual problems are probably happening to less than 1% of the population, and mostly affect people (like us) who play their ps2s in a month as much as normies play in a year :D.  As it is, I\'m sure Sony is aware that the problems are hurting their image, and I\'ll bet the system and plants had a major check early in the launch.

The PS2 is built like a major class POS. Compare it to similar priced Home Theater/Computer equipment and you see how little quality you get for your money.

It\'s not Sony, it\'s the product. I have lot\'s of other Sony equipment TV, DVD player and a luuurvley polished aluminum DD/dts reciever and they all ooze quality, the PS2 does not. It\'s flimsy and tacky, for the huge amount of money it awful build quality.

Combined with the ****ty warranty, huge cost and expensive repairs, Sony fail to impress.

Oh and the fun and games at launch.

Game discs seem to be following suit with manufacturing errors leading to bad discs.

Perhaps I\'m just fussy, or just expect more for my money.

Will I sign?...with pleasure.
