Anyone have this PS2 DVD-playback problem?
« on: September 10, 2002, 09:34:46 AM »
I\'ve had the disc read error problems, but I came upon a new one today.

I put in Suspiria DVD today and went to play it. Worked fine up until chapter 12, I believe. After that the whole screen turned into jumbled green blocks. If I went to the main menu, the same thing happened. Same if I went back to chapters that previously worked. I was forced to reboot the PS2. I cleaned it yet again - same thing happened. So, I decided to try it in my Xbox, where it played perfectly (so far). Just curious if anyone else has had this problem and if so what movie did it happen on?
:confused:

That it is, that it is.

Great DVD , three disc collection (one disc is the Goblin soundtrack) and a bunch of extra material with it.

Dario Argento?

Ain\'t the the father of Asia Argento, the Italian actress in xXx, who was also in some racy Italian soft core porn?

Not that I\'ve actually seen this porn, in question...
July 2002: If you had bought $1000.00 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00. Enron, $16.50 left. Worldcom, $5.00 left. If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of Budweiser beer one year ago, drank it all and turned in the cans for the 10 cent deposit, you would have $214.00. Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.

You actually know the name of a porn actress? Damn, you\'re "hardcore" Ash.

As hard as it is to believe, I can name many porn actors and actresses but I DO NOT watch porn...

Nor do I search for it on the net...

Maybe console is stuffed up. I would get it looked at. Mine has been working just fine, and it\'s actualy really good quality.

Yep. I took \'em off though, due to the fact once I installed \'em, I noticed certain movies would freeze and not play. Go figure.

Looks like Sony needs to update their drivers again then.

Mine works fine. I don\'t use it very often, though. I say, go get a better DVD player.

What the hell is with you, man? It seems you\'ve been scarred for life by your malfunctioning PS2(assuming you ever actually owned one).
Why, oh why, didn\'t I take the blue pill?

Welcome to the land of broken PS2s. Join us, brother.

Please set your PS2 (whose sould has gone to a better place) on the pile and purchase a new PS2. You wouldn\'t want to miss all of the great games, would you? All your friends have bought their second PS2s, why don\'t you? Everyone is doing it, brother.


Seriously, get a real DVD player, playing DVDs on a PS2 is like asking Sony to press the button to specifically permanently malfunction your PS2 (you know they have that power!).

Jacob: Ur absolutely right. The PS2 is already a flimsy piece of plastic and metal and yet people want to shorten it\'s life span by playing DVD on it.

Sonic2K: Don\'t worry. Your time will come when SONY demands you to buy your next PS2. Shall I reserve a place for you in the club?? LOL.
