I know. My PS2 sets me over the edge. Actually, its the only thing that pisses me off nowadays. I\'m going to have to buy Game Doctor to fix the Soprano DVD (part of it is messed up) and then clean the PS2 out with compressed air. If that doesn\'t work, ship the fudger to Boston.

My PS2 loves me.. Ive never had any problems with this one :) *knock on wood*

But then again I love the little bugger and keep it clean and dust-free.

My PS2 loves me for 3 months and then now hates me.

Mark my words. I\'ll file for divorce with that crappy piece of hardware.

I can\'t help but throw in some insults here. Isn\'t it amazing how half the PSone owners ended up owning more than one, because of them breaking down,etc? I mean, how many people how to stand their PSone\'s vertical just to get them to work? So, Sony now makes that a feature for the PS2 - standing vertical, that is and guess what? People are still having problems with their PS2\'s. I can honestly say, I\'ve never heard such complaints from Nintendo / Sega fans.
Hell, my Nintendo got half melted one day when I sat it on a furnance and played fine until the day I got rid of it.

I guess he jus figures most people forgot about his lil hissy fit, and he could sneak in a few more low blows before anyone took notice and told him to suck it up and quit whining again.

L-I-C, yeah I have to set my PSX up on it\'s side to get it to read games. Considering how old it is tho, the hell it\'s been through, and the batch that it came out of.. I\'m happy with how it turned out. My NES absolutely refuses to play games unless you blow on the cartridge, jam it in, and press reset until your fingers bleed. My first Genesis had it\'s controller port break. I dunno how it happened.. but one day Controller 1 jus consistantly wanted to keep holding down. Something in the port screwed up.. it wasn\'t jus the controller.. so it essencially jus destroyed my Genny. That was after 1 year. Speaking of which, it didn\'t take much longer than that for my GameBoy and GameGear\'s screens to both go out permenantly. My first SNES just stopped working one day. My guess is that something blew, cause I can remember smelling something burning after starting it up and getting a garbled screen.

The only consoles I have that have made it to the end of their lifespans with no problems were the Sega Master System, TI 99/4A, and PSX. I guess you could count DC too.. but I\'m still gonna hold to the 5 year pattern. If PSO v.2 keeps grinding my lazer like it is when I join a new room or a busy lobby.. I couldn\'t see it lasting 4 more years.

So yeah.. I\'m probably in the minority.. but I don\'t know anyone personally who\'s had problems with their PSX\'s aside from having to set it up on it\'s side to keep FMV\'s from skipping and to stop loading hangups.

I shouldn\'t of forgotten about the infamous Nintendo loading situation. They later fixed that with the top-loading NES, though.

I\'m amazed that your Super-NES quit. Everyone I have known as put their Super-NES through a beating. I personally melted mine and a friend of mine dropped a tv on his, busted the whole case off it, it was pretty much just a motherboard and controller ports and yet, it worked fine until the day he got rid of it.

Scrathing discs is something else though. First see if sony will fix it, but the above faq should fix it.



Don\'t adjust voltage or bios.. leave it alone. send it too boston. You don\'t want to screw your warrenty.. Try compressed air if you want.. hell try a air compresser. But never play with anythings insides unless  you know what your doing or it doesn\'t have a warrenty.. That\'s when i tend to play around with electronics.

Have most of the hardware problems been ironed out yet. How many new improved batches have they made.

The only prob i have heard was that my friends fan broke but he got it repaired And it was a launch system

He could have put a new fan in himself. You could take the fan out (I think) and put a new one in.
