Sorry Gad, I should've came here sooner.

I hope nothing happens to your PS2.

If everything goes well, then you've proven that it was a rumor then I don't have to be so over-protective myself. *stares at her Japanese PS2*

Its kinda stupid for them to make something that will make the ps2 act up, don't ya think, but I never had it like that vertical, I always had it horizontal.

Maybe they didn't realize about this little problem until after it was made?

(I'm no expert, just my assumption

). But yeah, that is pretty terrible.

I dont know, I have kept my Ps2 for the first 6 months Horizontal, and then changed it to Vertical for 8 months, and it was fine and now again for a change Its Horizontal. It works perfectly fine.

I dont know why this rumor started for that it will mess up vertical, some little LAMO somehweres in this world just wanted people to worry!

But I wish I could have it vertical, its just in a TIGHT SPOT!

I'm a HUGE worrier to start with.. hehe.

I've also heard that the first PS2s' out were only the ones that had problems being vertical... I bought mine not that long ago so hopefully it's not one of the old stock...

Kimahri · Mar 27th, 2003, 06:47 PM

Gadzoox, it doesnt matter if you by it early or not, they are all made at the same time even though you bought it a week ago, or a year ago!

Trust me if they didn't do that, they wouldnt be able to have them in stores cause the low supply!

OK Ive only ever had ONE problem with having mine vertical and that was with Smugglers Run it kept clicking when it was vertical and the game started freezing so I had to put it back horizontal - I sold that game now though so I do keep mine vertical most of the time now because it looks stylish in my room.

vertical... horizontal.... i should think that it doesnt make a difference.... i have had my ps2 for sumtime alreadi. when its not being played with ... it goes into a bag and into my cupboard. i have played wit the ps2 vertical .... as well as horizontal.... never had probs like disc gettin scratch or even hanging..... i dun like leavin my toys around when im not playin wit it. thats why i like to keep it. when its not being used......

Having it vertical makes it look mcsexah (don't ask) I used to use it horizontal but I got a vertical stand for my b-day an I loved it.........

PS: Don't you think that the horizontal stand was a pretty stupid Idea...

But why hide it... its a beautiful bit of machinery - you dont just put it away when youre done - you leave it hooked up so you can always play it.

Not completely - the horizontal stand is for when you have it on rough surfaces like if its on a sharp surface or if its up high on a ledge so it doesnt slip easily...
