If they were playing copied games they wouldn't be recognised as game discs let alone boot the PS screen :roll:

i'm having the same problems, if your playstation isn't from the US then check the compatibility for the games first from here:

all my psone games play okay except ff8 which goes as far as the PS logo screen then goes black which sounds like what your describing.all other ff games work fine so i assumed it was a problem with the disks but maybe all games aren't compatible yet.
