PS2 lasers dont last long. When you play burned dvdr's on them, they wear out faster and then you have to replace them. modchips can last for a long time as far as i know. Slim ps2 sucks BTW compared to fat ps2, for modding.Originally Posted by abu_has_the_power
I agree.

I don't know if u bought the PS2 yet but I think u would want the slimmer PS2 but not the slim one just because it sucks for modding. I'm not sure which version I have but it is a slimmer version.

i'm sending my slim ps2 to teammodders.com. they're highly respected in the modding community
and i got a v14 slim ps2
um...no.
abu, just make sure you use high quality disks, like
Verbatim, and Ritek.

yea, that's one problem i ran into. i have those "free after rebate" dvdr's i got on black friday.
do poor to average quality disks not run?
poor/average quality disks do run, but the ps2 just has a harder time reading them..at least, the chubby PS2s do. not sure about slim ones. Cause on fat ps2 (mine), with poor quality disk you can hear the ps2 making all sorts of clicky noises and spinning the disk really fast so it kinda starts to vibrate.
but with high quality its just as if i put in normal disk w/ no problems.

what exactly causes this problem? like are high quality disks manufactured differently??
they emphasize this @ forums.afterdawn.com too.
i burned a dvd movie onto a Dynex dvdr (not really high quality), and i just watched it on my ps2. works fine
