I always hear this, but neither my PS nor my PS2 ever gave me any trouble. And I played em hard.

I had a problem where it would make a clicking noise when it would spin and no game would run. I opened it up and found - I shit you not - earwax and a piece of toenail inside the machine's gears. Got that shit cleaned up and BAM good as new.

I guess my advice is to crack it open, check everything out and see if anything unusual appears in the machine.

It was mainly the 1st gen of PS2s. To hear some of the folks on forums who worked in retail at the time of it's release some of them had a near 50% return rate on the console. They fixed most of the problems it's 2nd or 3rd wave.

It was actually bad enough Sony lost a civil suit concerning it.
