Thread: My ps2 is toast

Yay, my ps2 slim's laser is broken now. It kicked the bucket while it was playing a cartoon movie for my son. Friggan awesome. I sooo love the fact that every ps2 (I think this is my 8th) I have ever bought lasts me for about a year before it toasts itself. Such quality fuggin craftsmanship (this is the first one I ever used backups on) from sony. And they wonder why I'm not going to get a ps3.

What this means for you, the leecher:

My thread will have no updates until I get another ps2 obviously since I can't test the iso's. I can't convert my cd's to dvd's on the oneechabara games since I can't test...

Your problem is you watch dvd movies(?) on the ps2.
Although it has the ability to you really shouldn't.
I have only had 2 ps2's since they first came out and that is only because I wanted to upgrade to the slim.

i think so too
i never did watch dvd movies in my ps2 again
the first and only i did it i saw how hard it was for my ps2
and here is my ps2 almost 4 yrs with me now

Well at least the new ps2 won't cost you as much as it was.
Now only for $99.
Yay!

Yah and I bought it last year for 200 dollars... Dam what a ripoff, atleast your lucky.
Lol and this is my 3rd or 4th PS2 xD

I've had my PS2 since 2001, and bought a second one for my son in 2005. I've opened both up and cleaned inside them twice. One of them was in my Rig' when I drove it off a fifty foot raveen and has some scratches, chips, and little pieces missing! Both are picky about playing DVD movies and PSX games but play PS2 games and ISO's great!

good news, my wife surprised me and picked me up another ps2 slim (this time it's a black console) hope I have better luck on this, and no more playing movies on it

good for you

i have the same problem and i found out it was from watching movies on it i went through about 5 or 6 before i took it to the consle guy in town and he said there made to watch movies but you really shouldn't use them for that
