    A lens cleaner might work but if it doesn't I'd send it to Sony to be repaired. It costs about 70 yoyos however ans they won't do it if the console has been modified. You can open up the console and clean the laser yourself but you could end up doing more damage youreself to the console. If you want somebody with some experience at fixing consoles and is a lot cheaper than Sony you can get your PS2 fixed in Game Xchange on Talbot street in Dublin.

    Also I'd recommend not playing tosh like Fifa and get Pro Evo instead.

    On another note, after 12 iterations of the PS2 console how come sony hasn't put a decent DVD drive in anyone of them.
