sad.gif My playstation's broke. I put in a disk, it starts to read it then stops after a second sad.gif I can't survive without my PS2 >.>


My Xbox disc tray stopped opening unless you severely and repeatedly punched it. Then I sold it and got a PS2... and saved up all my money to buy almost all the Final Fantasy games!

As a side note, the bursar at my university makes me extremely angry because they are lame-o's. And I can't afford college.

What country are you in? I thought they were the same in America, and college'd be cheaper over in England since you'd probably have to be young enough to still be in govt. funded education to go there...

I'm from Ohio, which I think might be somewhere in American... I dunno, though, they don't learn us very well over here.

I want to study abroad in England dry.gif Too bad the Bursar hates me.

Bursar: Sorry, we can't accept this scholarship check.
Me: Uhhh... WHAT?! Why not?!
Bursar: Well your courses don't match up.
Me: Uh, yeah they do.
Bursar: No, the scholarship doesn't have your chemistry lab listed on it.
Me: You mean my chemistry lab that isn't a seperate course, is not graded seperately, and is not worth any credits because it isn't really a course?
Bursar: Yes. All labs are courses.
Me: You didn't have a problem with my geology lab.
Bursar: Your geology lab is part of the lecture course.
Me: So is my chem lab.
Bursar: That's not the point.
Me: Accept my damn scholarship money.
Bursar: You're a day overdue on your payments, we're going to have to put a hold on your account.

explode.gif Mine did this to me too. I remember posting about it somewhere in the RL topics section and Terentia telling me they all did that after a couple years and I had to get it replaced. >_<


So it absolutely has to be replaced? I don't want to end up buying a third playstation...

That's what I was told; the laser just wears out with time. But it might be different to you. Ask around more first.
Kharaen2007-02-01 14:03:27
I called the place I got the machine from...they said that it happens after a couple years, and I either have to send it to Sony to repair it (100+$ with shipping) or buy a new one. Luckily the price on new ones have dramatically dropped since the last time I bought one...(129$). But this sucks. My SNES that I've had for over a decade still works, damnit angry.gif .

I had the same problem with my PC recently, would've taken them over two months to fix it. Last time I bloody buy Dell. (Or, uh, fail to advise my parents not to NOT buy Dell.)

I've had my PS2 for, uh, around 4 years or so and it still works great, I just have issues sometimes with PS games (which I always had anyways). So, I guess I'm lucky! happy.gif

Its a scam by Sony, now that the PS3 is out, all the PS2s are going to start failing due to a intended expiration date of sorts on various important parts of the console.

/conspiracy theory

Eh, I've only once had a problem with my PS2 and it's never ever come up again. Hellboy just apparently did not like it.
Kharaen2007-02-02 03:42:07
I'm on my third PS2, but I use it a lot more then most people do. Like to run movies while I sleep... simply cause I can't sleep unless there's constant noise. Wierd, I know :/

And, GODWTFBBQDAMN THIS FINGER HURTS LIKE censor.gif censor.gif . Ever slice your finger with a bread slicer? Huh?! HUH!???

I will not be around as much due to finger/fingernail slicage.
Arkzrael2007-02-04 04:36:32
Grrrrr...I hate this.

Okay, make sure to take this down for me.

If you need me in game, LEAVE ME A MESSAGE! For heavens sake, don't wait until I log on to send me a tell. I've been offline due to the fact that I've been moving and the only thing I can use is NEXUS/DIALUP/YAHOO BROWSER...the eight people who sent me tells all at once when I logged on get the free ride this time. Next time...I'm going to cut you up good. *waves around an athame at 28kbs*

However, I am still around! I perservere! I HATE THIS DINOSAUR OF A COMPY! *fume*


And yes, I've sliced my finger with a bread slicer...and tomato slicer...and cucumber slicer...and butcher knives...I used to work at Subway and kept a box of Spiderman bandaides in their first aide kit for all my sandwich war wounds.
