I feel that the normal PS2 is better because it does not break as easily. My cousin has gone through 4 slim PS2's already. The Xbox is ok, but if u want a true gaming experience, get an Xbox 360 or a PS3.

Re:
Ps2 can play dvds but xbox needs a store bought xbox dvd remote to play dvds the ps2 slim and the ps2 normal have a lot in common so thwere is not much difference, but the slim has a fliptop lid and the fat ps2 has a open and shut slide drive.If I were you I would get the slim because it is the only one you can get brand new nowadays. The xbox may have halo 1 and 2 but sometimes there are freezes on certain xboxes.
Do not forget Ps3 Fat 60GB the first edition can play all old PS1+2 games however PS3 Slim does not allow this unless you d/l them from the PS store but PS3 slim is a great console as the fat one has alot of heating problems as a owner of bother of them my Fat ps3 died so i sent it away to console doctor now it sounds like a jet engine going off....While the slim works greatDo not forget Ps3 Fat 60GB the first edition can play all old PS1+2 games however PS3 Slim does not allow this unless you d/l them from the PS store but PS3 slim is a great console as the fat one has alot of heating problems as a owner of bother of them my Fat ps3 died so i sent it away to console doctor now it sounds like a jet engine going off....While the slim works great

Hello,
the Slim version bring some technical improvements, but the overall game quality is pretty the same.
The Slim is smaller and lighter (about 1/4 of the size of its phatty predecessor) in fact. It also has greatly enhanced online gaming capabilities due to the presence of a new Ethernet port, network connection, and phone line.
Hope this helps,
good luck,
Peter
i was having a similar problem with a brand new v.2.2 gameshark(blue bottom).
Then i decided to stand m system vertically instead of horizontally and it's been working fine since i put it vertically.
I also try to reset your ps2 with the gs2 disk still in the tray a couple of times and see what happens.....
and does all of your GS2 disk got scratches?
and by the ways, many ps2 version, like version 4 with the R after or
version 5 and up will need GS2 version 1.9A / 1.9B / 1.9C / 1.9D or 2.0
and above to be booting with those ps2 version....
but i know GS2 version 2.1 will work with every new ps2 version.....
Well first off, make sure the disk if in PS1 OR PS2 format. That is what the PS2 Is requesting when it says "Please insert Playstation or Playstation 2 format disk. The Slim PS2 has various problems reading disk.(Don't Know why? I own it and Know it does). The Fat version(1st version) is a much better system, in my opionion. Try blowing air to clean the disk reader. Or changing the disk reader portion out, At a small price.
your lense is more than likely defragmented jacob and you should never take any system apart okay so what you wanna do is if your warrenty is still in effect dont tell sony you took it apart just send it in for a refurbisment if it isnt you need to look around online for a ps2 slim lense okay
harpy_125..yes they do .but you do need an old version memory card to memorise your games. does it play music cds . if so it should read the games as these are only cd and not dvd..
Yes this port be changed out on a slim like the fatter PS2 version it is a complicated work and should be done by an expert technician only otherwise the tracks on motherboard will be spoiled. One thing be sure before changing the port you check it if this port is physically damaged then only you can proceed otherwise you please compare the working voltages on all pins with your port 2 and sort out the fault because sometimes +5v supply missing or any diodes connected on port is short which can be the reason for this fault.
