RE: PS2 broke :(
I had the exact same problem. I couldn't play any games and I had a loud noise every time I tried playing a game.

The problem was that a small bit of plastic has broken inside the PS2 and got stuck somewhere, causing things to not work. I got a speciallist to fix it.

You can risk opening it yourself and trying to get it out, whatever is in there, or get it repaired.

Get it repaired, I'm sure it doesn't cost much.

All you can do is ring up and ask?

I'd suggest looking in a local newspaper and there's usually at least one person who does PS2 repairs.
