was able to get this slim fixed with a new laser and its workin great now!! btw, shoutout to MechaPwn for making an awesome region-free softmod possible

A used, but repaired PS2 slim with its disc tray open; the demo disc for the Official U.S. PlayStation Magazine Issue 62 is inserted.

Bawls, but it's also a promo for the game Run Like Hell.

The same PS2 slim open but with Suzuki Bakuhatsu inserted on the disc tray.

Suzuki stares at the camera holding the gun close to herself.
