Most likely caused from dust under the DVD Deck. This requires that you open your console and blow the dust out ( DO NOT USE A VACUUM Tiny parts can be sucked up that will render it completely useless). After you have done this and put it back together again clean the laser as dust will have collected on it from when you blow out the dust. If you do all this and it is still doing the same thing it just could be a case of the poor old PS2 is wearing out.

SOURCE: my game freezes at the same spot every time

First step should be to change the game by the new one (or clean the disc). If this still not help please advice.

Everytime I try to play my ps2 it says, A.It can't read the disc B.it plays it then the game freezes 5 min later and cutscenes etc don't work right. even with brand new discs.

Try cleaning the laser on ps2 using a cd/dvd cleaner... can purchase it for couple of dollors insert it and let it do its thing.
most likely issue with laser. if this doesnt solve it then it could need replacing

PS2 games load, but freeze up within minutes.

If it is Freezing most Likely answer is your fan is broken/not working.
It would need to be replaced see if you can feel anyair blowing out of it
