staticneuron said: I am surprised to hear this. Out of all my friends only one had an issue with the PS2...... and I have alot of friends. I have owed 2 PS2 and purchased another two for friends/relatives. I had no issues with my PS1 and neither of any of my friends. Is this hardware failure batch based, location based or interface based. I really would like to know.
I'm surprised that you are surprised. Their was a class action lawsuit brought against Sony because of the prevalence of PS2's with giving owners Disc Read Errors. Sony settled this lawsuit in late 2005. http://www.gamespot.com/ps2/driving/jakx/news.html?sid=6139482 http://www.ps2settlement.com/
