	[quote name="curst"][quote name="Zseni"]Actually we unplugged our old DVD player, which used to act up all the time, in favor the PS2 DVD playback. So make of that what you will.[/quote] Yeah, it seems to be a crapshoot. You're the first person I know who has said they've had NO problems. The ones I have differ from most people I know. I used to have almost none, but the situation deteriorated dramatically over time. To wit, these movies refuse to play at all: Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon The Big Lebowski Aliens And these start off playing okay, then stuttering begins to set in, and eventually it gets so bad that the movie is rendered unwatchable: Story Of Ricky Beastie Boys: "Anthology" (although, now that I think about it, I don't know of a single person who's gotten perfect performance out of this on ANY DVD system, PS2, computer or otherwise) Drunken Master 2 Shaolin Master Killer Rushmore others that I can't remember Yet I can play certain ones that are infamous for not running on most PS2s, such as the special edition of Akira. SO CONFUSING. Then there's this general problem I have with my machine, which may mean it's simply getting old: I have to either push up or down on the CD tray while it's sliding into the machine if I expect the PS2 to read the disc. Almost every single time. Dynasty Warriors 3 and GTA:Vice City might be the only games that load normally without my "assistance" - otherwise I get that error Fabio mentioned about "disc read error", or something to that effect.[/quote]
