Never because I didn't play nu-console trash after the fucking PC began to dominate gaming around 2000, and you shouldn't have, either. Yet another reason your trash belongs on /v/ with the rest of the garbage modern gaming.
/vr/ is pre-1995, pre-N64/PS1 only. Retro is not a time, it's a type of game, pre-style over substance garbage to attract non-gamers to shiny crap with bad gameplay.

I'd say the satisfaction of booting a PS1 game was better. The initial BEEEOOOW was """scary""" especially when the very last oOoOoOo note drones on and it hangs there for a second or two, and then suddenly the PS color logo jingle plays and it's like FUCK YEAH

I've had my PS2 since launch and I've only seen that screen maybe three or four times, and one of them was likely just to see if I could put a nonPlaystation game in. Take better care of your technology.

I never had any problem with disk read errors on my PS2. My xbox, on the other hand, developed serious problems with that in the first 6 months. Opening and closing the tray over and over, sometimes 30+ times just to get it to read properly.

This argument will never work.
I do take care of my technology and I saw that red screen on day 1 when I bought my PS2 brand new.

no idea then. i didn't even take particularly good care of mine since i had to transport it between houses once a week. but i played on it often and never had issues.

Same here. Played on one for good six years before selling it, and never once saw this. I had that SpongeBob game that kicks you to the PS2 memory card menu at random, so I guess I saw some sort of error, but that's a software error...

my ps2 did that one single time when GTASA pissed me off. I slammed my fist into the ps2 and it bounced into the air. The disc was ruined, but the ps2 was fine. Sold it to a friend and he let it run 24/7 for almost a year playing Gran Turismo and it never had any problems. 39001 btw

I remember having to perform a little trick to get my PS2 to run pirate PS1 games, put the disc in, close the tray, and then hold the power and reset buttons simultaneously for a few seconds, then release, and gently tap them again once. It sounds weird but it worked. My PS2 was modded, btw. Pirated PS2 games ran normally.
