hope this helps.
please rate solution ;p

clean it

Yes, the reason for that is because you bought a game from another country it has to run through a format CD for that country (which you can find on the web) to format your PlayStation 2 to play foreign games. I hope this helps or solves!

Which version of the ps2 do you have big or slim? what model?

what is the solution

switch controllers or clean the disc < switching controlers worked for me >

just a guess, but i think the PS2 has some plastic gears inside that could become stripped. Check this link: http://store.richspsxparts.com/melagecreplg.html
