1, almost 6 years old now, never had a problem, although it's starting to get worn out, figures because it's been played for about 5-6000 hours at least
2. The first was the gran turismo 3 bundle, which I got back in early 2001. I sold that due to a lack of cash in 2002, and bought my second one later that year, or early 2003.
I've had 2 , My original fat one, had 2 problems, First, it wouldn't read discs, laser problems(yes we all know the old story there), and second, no power was coming into it. Managed to get both fixed, now I have a silver fat one, that I've had for about 3-4 years, still working perfectly fine, no prob's so far, a definite improvment over the original.
I've had 3. My first, the fat one, I ended up giving to my cousin. So then I bought the black slim one since it just came out at the time. And yesterday, actually, I bought my third. The silver slim one.
I think most PS2 systems (regardless of fat or slim) will last for a very long time, as long as they are taken care of properly. Good ventilation, light handling, etc. And remember, overheating means that a system was damaged from a heating proble. It is normal for a video game system to produce heat after extended hours of usage. They need to be kept well ventilated. If you have an entertainment center with doors on it, keep the doors open so that your console can breathe. If cool air can continue to flow through it, people won't have as many overheating problems.
Two the first one didn't read any disc anymore right now I'm still on my Second PS2 and I had this console about five years now or so. Still good and running fine for me.
One. I got one at launch and it lasted me all the way until PS3 without problem :). Though once, the lens got dirty and I had to buy one of those discs with the cleaners on them to wipe it off. But after that, it was A OK.
One (original). Got it about four years ago. I'm afraid it's on it's death bed though. It keeps making this really weird ticking and scratching noise. Makes me very sad...:cry:
I'm on my third and am convinced that DVDs kill PS2s, at least in my case.

I'd definitely have to agree with that. I didn't hear the weird ticking noise until we started playing DVDs on it.
this maybe sounds like a lie but iv had 5 ps2´s cause iv had a game shop and stuff... but 3 of them die ... LOL ....so i left 2 and one only works when he wants and thats makes me wana broke it by myself trust me i alreday try it hehehe:twisted:
