Got a new ps2 2 weeks ago- (30 days to return it if need be) Each time I finish Tokyo-Screen goes black and stays that way-any suggestions-Also, first DVD experience was less than stellar-lots of pauses/skips- any suggestions?

This probably has nothing to do with your problem, but just something to think about

A couple weeks after I bought my ps2, the first time I beat the cruise ship in Tony Hawk (last level of gameplay) it froze. I found out that my PS2 was broken... Only way it's linked to THPS3 is that it started while I was playing tony. Maybe THPS3 is a disease! who knows, but you should return the game for a new one. No reason why you should have a screwed up game

Went back to Toys r Us to return questionable ps2 and got an new one- (no questions asked....) Other games seem to run better ----HOWEVER in thp3 in career mode, I get past Tokyo, It says it's unlocking pro bails 2 movie and then goes black and starts making ticking noises and stys that way-CD is only 2 weeks old-backside looks good-What is supposed to happen at that point?

Ive had that problem with my ps2 before. Every dvd id play, would lock up, and some games wouldnt play. I tried to take it back to kmart, (dumb place to buy it, i know) and they wouldnt take it back. So, I was forced into keeping it. But, I tried putting it on its side, and that made it work fine. I dunno, maybe ps2 has some kind of glitch.

Thanks for all the help-I'm sending thp3 off with a friend to try it in his ps2-If the problem persists-I'll return it-Toys R us took the original playstation2 back without a question, why not the game too...
