Default Does anyone know anything about Ps2's?

Well, alot of my games play fine on it, but when I play newer games like Madden 06, it just sits at the loading screen and does nothing. Any help is appreciated

Alot of the PS2s need to have a recalibration and cleaning done. They sent out a recall sorta thing for a free cleaning if you have the right model number. I have to get mine done.

Laser might need to be cleaned, especially if it's 3+ years old.

Yea, I got it awhile ago, back when GTA III came out cause I got it as a present with that game. I just cleaned the laser and it didn't really help much.
