no joke, my PS2 is very much dead. heres the story sort of carried on from this: [link]

basically, my dad managed to open the CD tray and get it to close and open by pressin the button, that was the problem before, so i have got my Devil Summoner 2 back, which is the good news

heres the whole "PS2 is dead" thing: the laser in the PS2 that reads the CD wont read...at all. my dad says that the laser is broken and i basically have to get a new PS2 in general unless my dad somehow fixes it (he is an electrician at Fords). i have had my PS2 for quite a long time, so it is quite old and frankly, it makes a lot of sense why it would die on me now
