    I would suspect it either has something to do with macrovision (which you cannot really fix...you just have to find a TV that isn't affected), or the video connection cables from the PS2 to the TV are bad, old, or not connected securely.

    Are you running your PS2 through a VCR or other pass-through device? I remember that happening when my family used to run our DVD player through our VCR. Plugging it directly into the TV could solve the problem.

    If that's not it, check the cables.

    That would be due to macrovision. I personally dislike it a lot.

    Yeah, I remember when I first got mine it'd do that because I had it hooked up through my VCR. Hook it directly to the television and it doesn't do that.
    I like Kung-Fu.

    What about PS2 > VCR > Cable Box > TV?
