Is it modded? Modding your ps2 causes that problem.

Normally I'd take it apart and clean the glass eye...

Heh...a lot of blue-bottom discs have that problem, actually. You're supposed to clean the lens, but I don't really know how to do that safely.

Obviously, your PS2 is angry at you, and that's why it refuses to read your disk. See, you must have done something to it to make it mad, such as playing another system more often, hanging out with friends rather than playing the PS2, or using it to play games like Shrek and Army Men. You have to treat it with respect. Don't stomp on it, because then it'll dislike you more. Don't shoot it, because you'll kill it, and no one likes a dead PS2 around the house. Don't spit at it, because it's a rude, yet sissy approach, so your PS2 won't be afraid or intimidated and will continue to not read your disks. Also, don't go into it and clean the ray lense, because then it knows that you're trying to pry into their business. That or disect them. So give it a bubble bath. That shows that you care for it, by lathering it in a nice, warm bath. This is obviously the best solution.

My PS2 once had this problem. It wouldn't play DVD PS2 games, in my case. I fixed it myself, which is awesome because it works now AND I'm proud of myself.

But here are the instructions I followed:

I reserve the right to be entirely wrong.

I still strongly suggest to give it a bubble bath. I also forgot a step to give you, but when you do give it a bath, make sure it's plugged in and on, and that you're in the tub the same time the PS2 is in.

If it is dirty then you should obviously clean it.. Or modding the PS2 causes problems.


I'm new.
