I've got the launch model as well, I've watched some of those films without a problem.

Which model are we talking about here Nick?

I've watched a lot of those movies on my old(50000) and new(50001) models of PS2. Likle Akira Spe. Ed. I just watched it last night. Don't know where this list came from but I find it highly suspect.

Actually.... no. Some other error occured while fixing others in the newer version. I believe version 1.5 has the most fixes (or maybe 2.0), while 3.0 (newest, I think) and 1.0 has the most errors. By the way, I'm talking about the DVD Driver version. Not the PS2 model.

I believe the IGN list is quite flawed, I know another site which has a list of incompatible DVDs and it has quite less then that, and also, the other site tells you which VERSION it's incompatible with. I'll try to dig up the other site if I have time.

There were many fixes from the first one and no driver had worse compatibility than the one at release.

I've never had a disk-read error with my PS2. Never had the green screen with DVD problem either.

The green screen is just when using an RGB connector.

Yea I know, but I just remember when the PS2 was first released, everybody was always going on about these problems. Never had any problems.

Perhaps I've just been lucky with the model I got.

I've played some of the ones on that list. Akira and Terminator 3 are the first ones that come to mind.
