I've got to ask, just how in the world did your console get to the shape that it's in? Oh, and I do believe that it still works, no worries there.

Ingenious. You should consider Mechanical or Computer Engineering as a profession. I tried doing nearly the same thing, and now....mine doesn't do jacksh**. But that was a launch system after 5 years, so it was a tolerable outcome.YourChaosIsntMe

Strangely enough i had a chance to do something like Engineering in the Military but i chose Infantry because i like guns better than working on Computers and other things like that all day

Interesting. You could still apply mechanical engineering to arms development. A highly profitably marriage of the two.

Damn it looks like it went through hell. Did your friend cut up the case to get to the laser? He should've tried unscrewing the case. I'm like you - as long as it works it's all good. I've fixed up a couple of PS2s before some just by cleaning the laser, a second one by changing the laser output a bit.

:shock:

What happened to the case? I get that the laser died, but it looks like it fell off the back of a truck... that was driving through a minefield... during an earthquake...

LOL At somepoint when he had it the Gash you see was a crack he it hit or cracked it when opening the PS2 But i took a lighter to it to see if i could melt the plastic back together but it just expanded the plastic till it looks like it dose now. as for the opening for the Disk i threw the top part of the disk loader away long ago so i had to cut the top in half. also i lost the screws to i had to tape each side so it would stay as one piece.

So just about 2 weeks ago i got a new Laser (with the black cover) from a friends non working system and now it reads all disks new and old even scratched with the ring from the old laser Like Brand Spanken new! If i had the cover for the screws i would put thos back on but sadly threw them away long ago.hofuldig

lol awesome. It looks like Rambo's PS2.

I have a question: couldn't you repair your friend's playstation using pieces from your own and keep that one instead?

It looks sick! XD You didn't actually tell us what really happened to get its "battle scar." Bleh..The hairs on the duck-taped side make it look crusty and sticky... Otherwise, good job at letting it live.

Ha awesome, I thought mine was bad, I bought it off a friend and it's pretty much a launch day one, but comparing it to that mines perfect, disk tray sticks a bit though, it worries me when it does it more than twice.

Goes to show that Sony knows how to make 'em. That's why when the time comes for me to get a new-gen system, I'll most likely go with the PS3, instead of the RROD machine.

I don't get why so many people are telling you to get a new one. If it does what it's supposed to do, plays video games, who gives a crap what it looks like? I'd hang on to that for as long as you can, just out of principal because of what it's been through.
