Unhappy Ps2 Blues

I wasn't going to post about this, but I decided that should....

Basically, w/o going into detail. On the 4th of July I came back from buying a new game (GTA3, finally). I went in my room to find my Ps2 disk drive had been broken.

For a more detailed story talk to me on AIM.

If I find a place where I can get it repaired, I will have it fixed in about a month, if not, late August I will get a new Ps2 all-together.

Well, good luck! I'd be mourning if my 'Cube went shot.

I had my PS2 break once, but it was because of a fall.

I send it to the service and I had to call them up 6 or 7 times to get them to fix it.

To make a long story short, it took like 2 months.

Ouchie, that has got to suck.

Post how it broke, unless it just happened because of nothing.

My PS2 almost broke once. But all is well now.

Somebody broke into my house and stole my PS2 once (few months ago), but I got a new one, so in the words of Joeiss... "all is well now. "

I wasn't there to see it break, but from what my cousins say they were wrestling in my room and landed on the CD tray.

Dumb kids, I wonder where they got the idea of indoor wrestling anyway

My PS2 fell of a table once. It landed right on it's front (where the loading tray is). All I had to do was push in the tray really really hard. Then it worked.


TheGame, does the PS2 say that there is not a disk found in the machine? If so, tell me. I think I know how to fix your problem.

Top loading trays are always better. The main reason for me is that I don't have to worry about the motor going shot. But I guess that would take alot of opening and closing to blow the motor. Bust also, I like them cuz if my 'Cube's top loading thing fails, I can just find a way to remove the spring (I think that would work fine )

before we went on Vacation for 2 weeks... my dumbass bro left the Ps2 on for 2 weeks. When we came back it the fan wouldn't work and it overheated like crazy. We had to by a god damn new one. When I finally did buy another one... one week later the price went down to $199.


... I wuz really really really pissed off
