*takes a bow*
Thanks for the kind words.
It'll be a Wii before I buy another PS2. PS3's are way outside my budget.
I'm still planning on taking my PS2 apart (might be something to do over spring break) - my hopes are that it just needs a real good cleaning, or that I spot a wire that needs resoldering since it will still sometimes read discs but usually doesn't.
yeah, if its over 2 years old take it apart and clean the lense. thats all it is.
And if that don't work you can do the Walmart swap. JK that'd be wrong.
Seriously tho if it doesn't work and you can at least read ps1 games somewhat consistantly still, you can soft mod it and run your games off an HD.
