So those 5 seconds were agonizing but if i didn't see the red screen, me, my brother and my father would celebrate like NASA celebrated the first moon landing. Nostalgia is amazing
I know that feeling man...although I mostly know it because when I collect old games, I hope it gets pass the startup...or else it means that I wasted money...
My buddy back en ruined the lens of my ps2 slim the trauma I went through. Him"Oh what's this do not put your finger let's see" that was the most horrific moment of my gaming life
I had a copy of twisted metal black that was broken into 3 pieces, we lost 1 piece ( maybe 10 percent of the disk ) but put the 2 big pieces together and it would still work.
A complete game! You could play from beginning to end and that was the whole game, no DLC add on or DLC gap bridging. You bought a game and it was a complete experience. Also game guides.
TrizerFlame they were also a professional finished product. Not this BS now where they have to do 10 patches to correct all the flaws with the game. Some like Dice and Bethesda don’t even bother to fix the game.
Yeah one thing is for sure is people today ,won't be collecting games from today because they simply aren't as good and don't even come with paper manuals.
Lol. I never lost my memory card. I just never took it out the system. When I did, only because I was taking it to a friend’s house or something, I would put it in a game case that had a card holder. I had 2 of them and I grouped the games by which ones I played the most so I could choose either slot to save on without changing them.
@@paintedgear2105 lol sometimes they would get a short in the wire. I think it was from wrapping the cord around the controller when you took it places or put it up like that

Captain Yorkie thats what us 27+ year olds are doing now... because we work we can afford all the good shit we missed out on... theres a well known pattern that kids now in 20 years will want to by stuff they see around now... because they will then be able to afford it and will want nostalgia

Anyone else have their TV at a certain volume to hear the game but the PS2 startup sound was like twice as loud so you would always get blasted with it?
Oh god, one of my most heartbreaking PS2 moments: So at my house we would always use my mom's nail polish remover and a q-tip to clean the game discs when they didn't want to play right, and it worked GREAT. So one day I brought my copy of Kingdom Hearts 2 (a most beloved game) over to my friends house to play. It had seen some heavy use, and hadn't been cleaned in some time, and didn't want to play right. So I had my friend go get his mom's nail polish remover and a q-tip (a trick he had never heard of) and started cleaning the disc... ... ... Only for it to get cloudier the more I cleaned... ... ... Apparently his mom used a different kind of polish remover, and it ATE AWAY AT THE TOP LAYERS OF THE DISC! The game was ruined, and I was heartbroken, because I was NOT one of those rich kids, and it would be at least a few months before we'd be able to afford another copy of the game. If you read this far, thanks!!! I guess this isn't exclusively a PS2 era problem, but that's when it happened to me lol
I remember using my mom's perfume to clean my ps2 disks (I had Kingdom Hearts 2 too my dude) but it was always expensive perfume so she would always yell at me.
Back when I was a kid the disc drive eject gave out, being the industrious ( or terrible little shit I was, I took everything apart...) I took the ps2 apart, took the lid off, the cover to the disc bay off, and put the disc in manually with only the white plastic magnet to keep the disc in place. For months it worked... until during my first playthrough of Kingdom Hearts my friend got up to get a drink, tripped on the controller cable, which dislodged the disc and it went flying across the garage floor destroying the surface. I found the ps2 a few weeks ago and it still works... god I loved my ps2.
When I first got a ps2 I was like 8 and I found a disc on the floor in my older brothers room and I was curious and I put it in and it was a porno LMAO
My friend brought his ps2 over for the first and last time. The disc tray was out i went to grab a drink. Ps2 on the ground. Went wireless never looked back
I have so many great memories with the ps2 -Being able to play ps2 and ps1 games on the console -Played dvds -played music -Controllers were basically indestructible and simple to hold -The little icons on the memory card screen(look at those for hours as a kid) - the little ps logo on the ps2 could rotate - that error screen - that startup screen - that main menu screen - when ur disc was so scratched up and after constant cleaning to PlayStation 2 logo pops up and than u wait on the black screw. Crossing ur fingers the game will work this time - Ran the game 90% of the time even if it was beyond deep scratches - playing rpgs like final fantasy and kingdom hearts and forgetting to save - not having enough space on memory card so I would literally cry because I had to delete one if my game data's - it actually got me and my family to play together -Internet was limited so when u had internet to look up cheats for games u would write them down on a piece of paper - SOOO MANY GAAAAMES RPGS, PLATFORMERS, SHOOTERS, FIGHTERS, RACERS, HORROR, HACK N SLASH...IT HAD IT ALL I love the ps2 and I appreciate it so much for Introducing me to the world of gaming My first system is a ps1, but I wasn't really into gaming until I got the ps2
- you were able only to score rebounds in fifa 06 because goalkeepers always saved the first shot no matter what. I won 1 fucking game of fifa 06. ONE FUCKING GAME!
Ps2 Kingdom Hearts fan? Now you've earned a friend :) And yeah, who wouldn't cry when seeing the 3d rotating game logo on the memory card screen go away forever??
Fun Fact: When you start the PS2 with a memory card inserted. The number of blocks on the opening screen represent the number of save files on the memory card. Also the longer you have played a particular game, the longer the block.
I remember back in 2011,I was 6 and I didn't know a lot about consoles. My grandma randomly asked me what I wanted and I asked for a PS2. My brother and I have the best memories of our lives with the PlayStation 2.
How could you miss this?? When you load a game and everyone crosses their fingers hoping it would actually load instead of saying the disc is scratched!
My brother hid mine away so that I can study for the exam After the exam period was over he forgot where he hid it. 2 years later we found it inside the couch
Don’t forget with the save logo icons, some of them would react to you deleting them. Like the Resident Evil Outbreak icon was moving hands coming out of a door and if you pressed delete where it said “are you sure” the zombies would close the door cause they didn’t wanna be deleted 😂😂
Man I remember when the ps2 game cases used to have slots to hold memory cards just so you didn’t lose it, but you still managed to lose them. Oh the nostalgia
I didn't have one till around the end of ps2s life cycle so I would just play the first three of the onimushas, sly 1 and 2's and god of war 1 and 2's and 007's opening over and over
Ahh remember when you could just play a game with all the content and without downloading it to your hard drive for an hour before playing? Good times ...
My favourite thing to so was load up my brother GTA: SA file with his menmory card, then switch it out for mine and save the game. Meant i didnt need to do the story and would have the game completed instantly😂 untill i accidentally done it the wrong way and made him lose his full game😂
I always left it in there, when transporting my PS2 anywhere i always put the Memory card somewhere safe in my Shadow the Hedgehog case so it wasn't lost
I remember about my memcard. When the RE4 was on hype, my friend need to complete the Pro mode, the he asks about mine's. He said that I was like a drug dealer but sells PS2 save datas. They said I was a "god" at my school bcs I like to share save datas like 100% completion, certain weapons runs, and so on. Man the memories. btw if you don't want to lose your memcard, always plug it and if you didn't need to pull it, don't!
i lost a memory card for 5 years, i checked drawers, closets, anything and i couldnt find it. then one day i decided to blow some dust off the old PS2 to play Dragon Ball Z Budokai Tenkaichi, i get the case and open it, and i found a long lost memory card inside the disc slot inside the case.
A correction to your video. The analog button came on by default. It was mostly used for PS1 games being played on the unit. You could either play them with the analog sticks or you could turn it off and play older titles in digital mode.
Ahh the disappointment when the disc couldn't read. Also the moment when you had to put like 3kg weights on top of the ps2 slim for it to read the disc
Jacob Molyneux that's mainly because of game models and textures. Today's weekly updates for the most don't make any change to those things, and in fact those are actually burned on the disks. Updates usually fix bugs and security. Once upon a time, bugs were 99% fixed before the game launch and so was security. And those little harmless bugs that were found months or years after the release, were just really funny to exploit. Also, many PS2 games are 5/8 GBs big.
@Jacob Molyneux Uh... they're 4-8GB excepting the few blue (CD) discs, ~700MB. And game Devs today don't really GAF about customer satisfaction after they have your $60. I remember Sims 3 was unplayable for more than a frigging year of its release, for example... too busy on the expansion to fix the base game. 🙄
"The PlayStation2's erea of dominance has long gone" even tho it's still the best selling console of all time, I think that's still a good deal of dominance.
I was negative 7 years old when this came out but I only got the PS4 in 2017. So from like 2011 - 2017 I played on my PS2 with my Simpsons Hit And Run, FIFA 08 and many more. 7:17 was the bane of the console though. You wake up, you turn it on and cycle through your cases of disks. You find the one you'd love to play. You insert it and wait in excitement. And you're greeted by that. It ruined my day and I'd always ask my dad to do 'the toothpaste trick' where you use toothpaste and other things and when used on the disc it would work again. I have a display of all my PS2 memories on my desk. And despite the fact I didn't know what the analogue button was and I constantly pressed it (never disabled my analogue sticks though) I had one hell of a time in then 6 years and I've been doing my best to get the parts to the TV I've had since my mum gave me the PS2 which was in the living room when I was 6. The first ever game I played was MotoGP and I remember I thought I was breaking the law for playing Simpsons Hit And Run which was a PEGI 7 when I was 6. Memories :)
That device have brought me thousands of gaming hours. I got 500 on pc, 800 on Ps4 but around 4000 on ps2. Truly great moments. Got 38 ps2 games! All them are great! Hugo, gta, formula, incredible....
I remember watching someone try to fix a disc with toothpaste. I believe the idea was to do it like the disc cleaners by removing one of the outer layers of the disc (where the scratches was), something i recall you being able to do a few times (3?) before you removed too many layers for the laser to be able to read the data.
Some of my most anxious memories as a child was waiting to see whether the disk would work, and then the relief or terror that followed as the PlayStation 2 logo either appeared...or not.
Mine always worked flawlessly till I took to gamestop to sell it. Then all of a sudden it didn’t work. Of course the guy was like uh um trusting to sell us a dead console is see.🤔I was so embarrassed. I took it back home and opens it up and a little connector had come loose for whatever reason. Plugged it back it and worked fine.
hopefully you're not using a modded ps2 and pirated discs. i almost never had any problem with that when playing with original games with my unmodded ps2. my first ps2 which was modded on the other hand..
Me and a group of friends camped out at Target on a sugar high till 9am when the store opened. I was soo hyped after being the 3rd person in line to get 1, soon as I walked in the door and entered my room I looked at the ps2 box then my bed and outta no where just crashed instead of opening my system... lol.
When the loading a game and you wish that game would start af, and the PlayStation2 logo shows up after Sony Computer Entertainment thing. That is the most exciting thing for me for playing PS2
Nostalgia blast. I went over to my grandparents neighbors house one time and got to play thrillville with their son for a couple hours. Lost my memory card while I was there and had to ask my grandparents to ask the neighbors if they could find it and they did! Saved all my battlefront 2 games among everything else I had on there.
I used to know if the game works or if there is no data just by looking at the beginning save screen and where the little things in the background went
The analog button was a throwback to ps1 because there was no dual analog at launch back then. It's a feature specifically for ps1 games, the ps2 games sense it. It's only there for backwards compatibility, similar to the "mode" button on the Genesis 6 button pads. It's for games made before they exist so they don't freak out.
The PS2 startup sound will forever hold a special place in my heart

Back when you could buy a game and just play it immediately without anything having to download or update 😞😒
Yep, I know right
The fact we have to download the game even though it's on a disc is ridiculous.

Dont forget how every game case came with a little memory card holder slot for when you went to a friends house you wouldn't lose it.
Gamecube had that as well, so idk if that should've made it onto this list.
Yes! I did it with read dead revolver
Haha yeah
Danny Alvarado those were some of the best game cases ever. They were well made and didn't break like the cases I had for Xbox 360.

That feeling you had every time you turned the console on, hoping you’d make it past the initial startup cinematic 😂
STRUGGLE OF MY YOUTH
I know that feeling man...although I mostly know it because when I collect old games, I hope it gets pass the startup...or else it means that I wasted money...
Ninjachickenfingers yep and it lingers long as hell so it be tricking you 😂😂😂😂
Ninjachickenfingers Yeah boy, that shit was intense! Especially when it's a game that you bought used and you hype af to play it
ahhhhh dem memories
Nostalgic Horror
The PS2, Wii, and the 360 will always have a place in my heart.
I had the ps2 slim which was literally *the* *disk scratcher*

I have both lol

ahh the days. back when you could breathe on a disk to hard and it would scratch
My discs are scratched to hell but the still work
You can scretch disk with breath are u a fuc**** dragon
They still worked though
I had a copy of twisted metal black that was broken into 3 pieces, we lost 1 piece ( maybe 10 percent of the disk ) but put the 2 big pieces together and it would still work.
Not only that, but you could take the games out and it would still play them

Way easier to trick them with wireless controllers

The good ol' days, no dlc, no pay to win, no battle royales poping up left and right
Battle Royales are the best
Lol
no subscription for multi-player
no battle royales but a great 70% of games were fighting games similar to tekken in 3d lol
battle royal games are a fad that will die before long, in the same way the zombie fad from a few years ago is basically gone.
Even starcraft had Brood War....
A complete game! You could play from beginning to end and that was the whole game, no DLC add on or DLC gap bridging. You bought a game and it was a complete experience. Also game guides.
TrizerFlame they were also a professional finished product. Not this BS now where they have to do 10 patches to correct all the flaws with the game. Some like Dice and Bethesda don’t even bother to fix the game.
THIS
True
That was the best part of the ps1 era :) Cheat codes you didn't have to buy each time you played was great too.
Yeah one thing is for sure is people today ,won't be collecting games from today because they simply aren't as good and don't even come with paper manuals.
I definitely used the “It’s a DVD player mom!!” Argument.
Lol. I never lost my memory card. I just never took it out the system. When I did, only because I was taking it to a friend’s house or something, I would put it in a game case that had a card holder. I had 2 of them and I grouped the games by which ones I played the most so I could choose either slot to save on without changing them.
I used to do that too
*Outstanding Move*
I stick it for 1 decade lol
When the ps2 was hidden from us, we forgot to take out the memory card so basically that thing was in there for like 6 years :/

Lol daaamn I forgot about that.
Hazim Zamri whst were you doing with your controller wtf guy
@@paintedgear2105 lol sometimes they would get a short in the wire. I think it was from wrapping the cord around the controller when you took it places or put it up like that

i had to go to the game shop about 3 times just to get a version of jak and daxter the precursor legacy that actually worked, cause when i got it there werent a lot of new ones around anymore

Fun fact: The number of blocks in the startup screen represents the number of games you played (currently saved on the inserted memory card).
@THUND3R xD The more you know...
Good old days when we came home just from buying the games,no need to download or update just insert it and enjoy
Anyone else have their TV at a certain volume to hear the game but the PS2 startup sound was like twice as loud so you would always get blasted with it?
Every fucking time I went to play it as a kid after my dad watched TV I was so close to a heart attack.. I was like 5 or 6 😂

Oh god, one of my most heartbreaking PS2 moments:
So at my house we would always use my mom's nail polish remover and a q-tip to clean the game discs when they didn't want to play right, and it worked GREAT.
So one day I brought my copy of Kingdom Hearts 2 (a most beloved game) over to my friends house to play. It had seen some heavy use, and hadn't been cleaned in some time, and didn't want to play right. So I had my friend go get his mom's nail polish remover and a q-tip (a trick he had never heard of) and started cleaning the disc...
...
...
Only for it to get cloudier the more I cleaned...
...
...
Apparently his mom used a different kind of polish remover, and it ATE AWAY AT THE TOP LAYERS OF THE DISC! The game was ruined, and I was heartbroken, because I was NOT one of those rich kids, and it would be at least a few months before we'd be able to afford another copy of the game.
If you read this far, thanks!!!
I guess this isn't exclusively a PS2 era problem, but that's when it happened to me lol
I remember using my mom's perfume to clean my ps2 disks (I had Kingdom Hearts 2 too my dude) but it was always expensive perfume so she would always yell at me.
@@Ali-sc6ki worth it haha xD
@sadat almonte My dad was a ps nerd and he showed me that. My dad's pretty cool
i used tooth paste and it fixed an entier game for complet the game was shrek race
GTA san andreas i had to clean it so many times it was ruined
I remember the "corrupted data" message that happened every so often, erasing all your game data
That intro sound. Burnt onto my mind. When I’m old an Grey, whenever I hear that sound, I’ll start crying.
Back in the day of having to position your couch closer to your tv so you could keep your controller plugged in
Logan Griffith lmfao so fuckn true my parents so many times moved it back on me
I had several of those 3rd party wireless controllers one of them was from Pelican
Hell you still have to do that with the nes and snes classics
I had those Logitech wireless controllers.
Back when my mum would yell at me for moving the couch so I had to sit on the floor and play
Accidentally hitting the eject button and still being able to somehow play the game.
No Smoking That was weird
No Smoking I took the game out and and i was playing but I couldn’t get past a certain point because there was nothing to read
some games had incredible glitches that would happen from this! Star Ocean Till The End Of Time crazy extra xp, for instance. Oh ps2, we miss you
Oh my god dude I totally forgot about that. And a wave of memories cones flooding in
No Smoking
Same
That was a really weird experience for me too 😅
Back when I was a kid the disc drive eject gave out, being the industrious ( or terrible little shit I was, I took everything apart...) I took the ps2 apart, took the lid off, the cover to the disc bay off, and put the disc in manually with only the white plastic magnet to keep the disc in place. For months it worked... until during my first playthrough of Kingdom Hearts my friend got up to get a drink, tripped on the controller cable, which dislodged the disc and it went flying across the garage floor destroying the surface. I found the ps2 a few weeks ago and it still works... god I loved my ps2.
When I first got a ps2 I was like 8 and I found a disc on the floor in my older brothers room and I was curious and I put it in and it was a porno LMAO
Damm have you been traumatized
I got it when i was 6 loool
Oof
Damn son where you find this
Oh noes
When you play a game and someone walks into the controller cord making the ps2 break or lose the save.
The controller cord? Just plug it back in. Why did yours break?
Do you mean the power cord, if so why do you have that where skmeone can trip on it?
Bruh I hate that shit I run through at least two PlayStations a year...
Man, I always had kids in my house so you can imagine how often that happened...
My friend brought his ps2 over for the first and last time. The disc tray was out i went to grab a drink. Ps2 on the ground. Went wireless never looked back
Dude, mi ps2 fell to the ground dozens of times due to my little siblins or my mom tripping with the controller wire.
I have so many great memories with the ps2
-Being able to play ps2 and ps1 games on the console
-Played dvds
-played music
-Controllers were basically indestructible and simple to hold
-The little icons on the memory card screen(look at those for hours as a kid)
- the little ps logo on the ps2 could rotate
- that error screen
- that startup screen
- that main menu screen
- when ur disc was so scratched up and after constant cleaning to PlayStation 2 logo pops up and than u wait on the black screw. Crossing ur fingers the game will work this time
- Ran the game 90% of the time even if it was beyond deep scratches
- playing rpgs like final fantasy and kingdom hearts and forgetting to save
- not having enough space on memory card so I would literally cry because I had to delete one if my game data's
- it actually got me and my family to play together
-Internet was limited so when u had internet to look up cheats for games u would write them down on a piece of paper
- SOOO MANY GAAAAMES
RPGS, PLATFORMERS, SHOOTERS, FIGHTERS, RACERS, HORROR, HACK N SLASH...IT HAD IT ALL
I love the ps2 and I appreciate it so much for Introducing me to the world of gaming
My first system is a ps1, but I wasn't really into gaming until I got the ps2
Ever thing was 900 percent true
Yooo the piece of paper with cheats omg that was me as a kid playing san andreas that hit home lol
- you were able only to score rebounds in fifa 06 because goalkeepers always saved the first shot no matter what.
I won 1 fucking game of fifa 06. ONE FUCKING GAME!
Jasper Kivinen LMFAO
Ps2 Kingdom Hearts fan? Now you've earned a friend :)
And yeah, who wouldn't cry when seeing the 3d rotating game logo on the memory card screen go away forever??
Fun Fact: When you start the PS2 with a memory card inserted. The number of blocks on the opening screen represent the number of save files on the memory card. Also the longer you have played a particular game, the longer the block.
I remember back in 2011,I was 6 and I didn't know a lot about consoles.
My grandma randomly asked me what I wanted and I asked for a PS2. My brother and I have the best memories of our lives with the PlayStation 2.
How could you miss this??
When you load a game and everyone crosses their fingers hoping it would actually load instead of saying the disc is scratched!
never had that screen. Didn't even knew to this point that it exists 😂
Yup
true players with those discs would know which “bits of the game” were damaged , and pray the loading screen wouldnt go on forever
and listening to the laser and the disk spinning up for it to make the right noises

@@edcox2051 yeah I rarely ever took my memory card out. Maybe if I'm bringing the game to my friends place. But usually he had the same games
My friend kept them all in a box which was always nearby the ps2
If im not using them sometimes i put them in a box besides the console.
My brother hid mine away so that I can study for the exam
After the exam period was over he forgot where he hid it.
2 years later we found it inside the couch

still have my ps2 just needs controllers to work perfectly fine
Don’t forget with the save logo icons, some of them would react to you deleting them. Like the Resident Evil Outbreak icon was moving hands coming out of a door and if you pressed delete where it said “are you sure” the zombies would close the door cause they didn’t wanna be deleted 😂😂
Man I remember when the ps2 game cases used to have slots to hold memory cards just so you didn’t lose it, but you still managed to lose them. Oh the nostalgia
Not having a memory card and replaying that 1st level of hit and run at least 100 times.
My introduction to FF7 was playing it to the Air Buster boss 3-4 times before my parents bought me a memory card so I could play the rest of it.
Jesus Lord Almighty I remember that
I used to hate playing Hitman: Blood Money, before I got my memory card but then lost it😂😂
I didn't have one till around the end of ps2s life cycle so I would just play the first three of the onimushas, sly 1 and 2's and god of war 1 and 2's and 007's opening over and over
We did that eith hitman blood money
Ahh remember when you could just play a game with all the content and without downloading it to your hard drive for an hour before playing? Good times ...

I didnt even know it could be removed once plugged in first 10 years after the release.
Yeah, I thought everyone left them in the console. Why wouldn't you? 🤔
I main IQ lol I still have the memory card stuck in my ps2 till this day. Dang that console is super dusty :)
I always left it in there, when transporting my PS2 anywhere i always put the Memory card somewhere safe in my Shadow the Hedgehog case so it wasn't lost
I remember about my memcard. When the RE4 was on hype, my friend need to complete the Pro mode, the he asks about mine's. He said that I was like a drug dealer but sells PS2 save datas. They said I was a "god" at my school bcs I like to share save datas like 100% completion, certain weapons runs, and so on. Man the memories.
btw if you don't want to lose your memcard, always plug it and if you didn't need to pull it, don't!
A fellow mobile legends player :D
It was like a dream come true walking into blockbuster or other places back then and seeing the shelves full of different games.
Start up sound was insane and unforgettable!
And very scary for me as a kid...
i lost a memory card for 5 years, i checked drawers, closets, anything and i couldnt find it. then one day i decided to blow some dust off the old PS2 to play Dragon Ball Z Budokai Tenkaichi, i get the case and open it, and i found a long lost memory card inside the disc slot inside the case.

A correction to your video. The analog button came on by default. It was mostly used for PS1 games being played on the unit. You could either play them with the analog sticks or you could turn it off and play older titles in digital mode.

The good old days when games were actually released finished. Instead of "constantly" updating.
Jacob Molyneux that's mainly because of game models and textures. Today's weekly updates for the most don't make any change to those things, and in fact those are actually burned on the disks. Updates usually fix bugs and security. Once upon a time, bugs were 99% fixed before the game launch and so was security. And those little harmless bugs that were found months or years after the release, were just really funny to exploit. Also, many PS2 games are 5/8 GBs big.
Yeah, that really brings my piss to a boil.
@Jacob Molyneux Uh... they're 4-8GB excepting the few blue (CD) discs, ~700MB. And game Devs today don't really GAF about customer satisfaction after they have your $60. I remember Sims 3 was unplayable for more than a frigging year of its release, for example... too busy on the expansion to fix the base game. 🙄
Its called beta. The reason games are released like this is because of the online era so games can constantly be updated when there is a bug.
Oh yeah😂😂 updating my gta online is annoying
"The PlayStation2's erea of dominance has long gone" even tho it's still the best selling console of all time, I think that's still a good deal of dominance.

I was negative 7 years old when this came out but I only got the PS4 in 2017. So from like 2011 - 2017 I played on my PS2 with my Simpsons Hit And Run, FIFA 08 and many more. 7:17 was the bane of the console though. You wake up, you turn it on and cycle through your cases of disks. You find the one you'd love to play. You insert it and wait in excitement. And you're greeted by that. It ruined my day and I'd always ask my dad to do 'the toothpaste trick' where you use toothpaste and other things and when used on the disc it would work again. I have a display of all my PS2 memories on my desk. And despite the fact I didn't know what the analogue button was and I constantly pressed it (never disabled my analogue sticks though) I had one hell of a time in then 6 years and I've been doing my best to get the parts to the TV I've had since my mum gave me the PS2 which was in the living room when I was 6. The first ever game I played was MotoGP and I remember I thought I was breaking the law for playing Simpsons Hit And Run which was a PEGI 7 when I was 6. Memories :)
The red screen when the disc didnt read always freaked me out

Some of my most anxious memories as a child was waiting to see whether the disk would work, and then the relief or terror that followed as the PlayStation 2 logo either appeared...or not.

Mine always worked flawlessly till I took to gamestop to sell it. Then all of a sudden it didn’t work. Of course the guy was like uh um trusting to sell us a dead console is see.🤔I was so embarrassed. I took it back home and opens it up and a little connector had come loose for whatever reason. Plugged it back it and worked fine.

hopefully you're not using a modded ps2 and pirated discs. i almost never had any problem with that when playing with original games with my unmodded ps2. my first ps2 which was modded on the other hand..

I was soo hyped after being the 3rd person in line to get 1, soon as I walked in the door and entered my room I looked at the ps2 box then my bed and outta no where just crashed instead of opening my system... lol.

it's nightmare fue
The analog button was a throwback to ps1 because there was no dual analog at launch back then. It's a feature specifically for ps1 games, the ps2 games sense it. It's only there for backwards compatibility, similar to the "mode" button on the Genesis 6 button pads. It's for games made before they exist so they don't freak out.
So crazy the matrix was the first dvd my dad bought when he got the ps2 back in the day
