Genshiken Box Set Trouble

by


Hot on the heels of my discovery that I’d gotten a bootleg from Amazon, I found out that the Genshiken Box Set I received might be defective. I made it through the first disc just fine, but halfway through the second disc it crapped out.

I was watching the second disc when I noticed that it was taking a long time to go to the next episode, so I went back to the main menu and chose the beginning of the next ep in the scene selection menu. After a couple of seconds I got an “unable to read disc” error.

I thought it might be best to try it in another DVD capable device so I popped it in my computer. It seems to be doing fine in the DVD drive. Whew! Dodged that bullet, but now I’m worried about my PS2. The PS2 was the player that had trouble reading it, so now I’m wondering if it’s because it’s going to die on me.

Could it be time to switch over to an X-Box 360? Nah, I’d probably just get a Wii and a DVD player.
