Fuck this piece of shit. This makes me think I won't ever buy a fucking playstation again. I can't turn the fucking thing off without having to take it apart and mess with shit so it will read a disc the next time. If I see that "Disc Read Error" bullshit one more time, I might lose it. This is fucking stupid. All I want to do is play some GT4, and I fucking can't.

mine is slowly kicking the bucket. about a year ago it started havin trouble reading DVD's. id have to insert and re-insert them over and over untill it would start reading the disc. then about 6 months ago it refused to play DVD's any more no matter how many times i tried. now its starting to do that with the games. takes between 3 and 5 tries to get GT4 to load. after that it does fine..its just getting it to start reading the disc upon insertion

i had a friend who's did that after 8 months of having, so he went out to walmart and bought another one and return the old one in it's place. got away with it and hasn't had prob. with the new one since then.

Thats odd. I bought mine used off a friend for 80 bucks with 2 games, memory card, and controller 3 years ago. I've yet to have a single problem....(knocks on wood)

I haven't had any problems with mine but that's probably because I never use it. I'm more of an Xbox guy. PS2 just never appealed much to me once the box came out.

I hope mine doesn't break until PS3 comes out. Either that or I'll just buy the PS slim w/ the 80,000 plus tickets I got at dave and busters

worked like a charm for tons of my customers, if for any weird reason you still have a warranty, make sure to heat up the protective sticker on the back and peel it off slowly so it doesnt show the VOID letters hehehehe, just dont tell any one i told you this, ESPECIALLY sony

Shit had mine since it came out, no problems at all yet. I do dust it all the time and use air cans through the vents and shit every once and a while though.
