well, i have a six-month warranty on it. it was a used and refurbished PSX console. EB Games was having a special deal: get a used and refurbished N64, PSX, or DreamCast for $29.99, and they'll throw in a free used game w/ a marked price not exceeding $14.99 ... and it was $6 for an extended warranty on the console. so if there are further problems, i can get some kind of reimbursement. whee.

meh... i'm too cheap to get a PS2 or even a PSX brand new.

but that was the only time when i ever had any problems with the game. no problems until more than 30 hours into the game...
