So it's been a huge Christmas day let down, and has cast a shadow of disappointment over the whole holiday. Tried them both in our neighbors newer ps2 console and it wouldn't work on that one either. Because it was a main Christmas present for one of our children it was important that we do something quickly to sort it out for him and drove an hour to buy another disk hoping that was the problem but unfortunately the new game disk did not work either. our PS2 console has been checked out and is 100% perfect running order. Game disk will not work which of course makes everything else obsolete and useless. I don't think they will publish it though. The place I purchased this asked for a review. Sorry about the ramble but I am really really annoyed with this issue. What about the implications of a throw away mentality eh?īottom line is Sony, and the game makers have either really screwed up or are looking for us all to just throw away and buy new. Most of us probably cannot be bothered or simply accept the typical response from retailers saying such things as "It must be your console, you will need to get it repaired or buy a new one" Surely this is a perfect opportunity to sell more stuff right? I for one am sick of this and others should be too.įor us now the only fix is to buy a new PS2, and I am sure there will be people saying things like, well it's only $$ this much now so stop complaining, but anyone who thinks that way is missing the point, and it goes further than that. There is no quality control being invested in by companies producing and selling software and hardware, they are simply relying on the consumer to do the quality control for them. It's simply not on and is happening far to often these days with allot of hardware and software. Because this game did not work we as parents who wanted our child to have a nice Christmas are now left to spend hours and hours on end trying to solve this issue. Perhaps some built in redundancy software in the new GH-4 game disk or the anti-copy protection software in the new game has made it too sensitive on the older consoles (ours is the slimline and is 2 years old now) This problem appears to be widespread and I certainly hope that people take the makers to task. After many hours of searching forums and other technical support it would appear that the only way this problem has been solved were those who suspected their console and purchased a new one. To eliminate our console as being the problem even though I doubted it would be we tried it in other friends ps2 consoles and it would still not work (both brand new GH-4 disks. Because our console works fine with 30+ other ps2 game titles that we would get another GH-4 game disk to try. Because ours was the bundle with all of the controllers we thought it was simply a case of a faulty game disk.
