hksuspect Posted March 21, 2003 Share Posted March 21, 2003 Okay, yeah. My Vice City has been working fine for the past week or so and then today it just wouldn't load. Like the title screen would come on, and it would load, and then say load successfull, and then nothing would happen. My screen would be blank. My other games (GTA3 and Ghosts to Glory) work fine though. I tried cleaning off the CD and still nothing would work. But the thing is, it was working perfectly yesterday. So, could anyone please offer some insight? It would be greatly appreciated, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PetsOvernight Posted March 21, 2003 Share Posted March 21, 2003 Hey, that's weird, actually it happened to me about 2 weeks ago. I brought my VICE CITY to my friend's place, and the exact thing happened. We tried cleaning the disc and putting it in like 4 times and gave up. I was so pissed that it was too scratched up or something, but the disc looked fine. Anyways, I got home, and it worked like a charm. Doubt it was his PS2 because other games worked... it was just weird. Try cleaning your disc more or something, or try it on another PS2...

Arch Stanton Posted March 21, 2003 Share Posted March 21, 2003 Did either of you SAVE YOUR GAME AT CHERRY POPPER'S ICE CREAM before you turned it off last time? Bastard child of My Mother's My Sister and Big Poppa Azkoyen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouGonnaBeSorry Posted March 21, 2003 Share Posted March 21, 2003 Throw out PS2. Preorder PC version. HAVE SOME REAL FUNNN. PS2 is GREAT ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmellyJelly Posted March 21, 2003 Share Posted March 21, 2003 Call the ps2 company and tell them that it's not working with some games. After a few questions they should either e-mail the place to mail the ps2 or give it to you over the phone. Take it over the phone because they never e-mailed me back! Mail it in and get it fixed for free. Mine has been their for about 2 weeks so be sure not to mail it over spring break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D@3mOniT3 Posted March 21, 2003 Share Posted March 21, 2003 this kinda happened the other day to me but with a different game. my buddy came over and brought some freestyle game and the sh*t didn't load up. it was weird cause the disc wasen't dirty and he said it worked fine on his sh*t. also my games worked fine, i dunno what causes this sh*t... probably the PS2 tho.

dajiggaman69 Posted March 21, 2003 Share Posted March 21, 2003 does this only happen in gta games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hksuspect Posted March 21, 2003 Author Share Posted March 21, 2003 A lot of people have told me different things. Like.. why would it matter if I saved at Cherry Poppers Ice Cream place? People also told me to turn my PS2 a certain position.. I know the CD isn't scratched though. Some guy also told me that I used too many cheats, lol. I hope not..

Lawley Posted March 21, 2003 Share Posted March 21, 2003 Try this on the main playstation menu with the browser and system configuration press triangle then press triangle again on console then press diagnostic on and i think this cleans or aligns the laser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you save at Cherry Popper's, this loading glitch occurs (assuming you're talking about loading to a blank screen). DON'T SAVE THERE and you will be OK. As for your previous game, sorry. Keep multiple saves as well. There's nothing wrong with your PS2, if it loads and plays before, and still works other games, then you're alright.

PetsOvernight Posted March 23, 2003 Share Posted March 23, 2003 I think I found the problem. I had posted, and I tried the same thing at the same person's house YESTERDAY... and I realized it must be HIS memory card. I has VICE CITY, but lent it to a friend, so I brought it over, with HIS memory card in slot 1, and it loaded black, tried again, samething. So I put my memory card in and it worked. Then I put his in and saw the file to load, loaded it, and it went black. Must be the card dude, you're gonna need to restart... I think my friend had saved at Cherry Poppers too...
