My ps2 fell off the shelf it is on while I was playing NBA Ballers. The music and comentary sounded like a record that was skipping but I could play the game.
I restarted the game and it will play but it gets stuck at the load screen. Also the commetary will be on when the game starts but will stop all of a sudden during the game.
The laser could be damaged. If it doesn't read AUDIO CDs or DVD MOVIES then you know it's bad. Go to the browser and insert a disk and post your results please.
