I've a fat ps2 with a modbo chip installed, and I've succesfully backed up a number of my games, but recently some games stop loading at some points, like when entering a new area in FFXII or roaming the city in GTA: LCS. The ps2 can play the originals without hassle, as well as ps1 games and dvd movies. I was wandering is there any solution to this?

Laser may need some cleaning. What type of media are you using? What burn speed?

I'm using DVD-Rs, using ripped ps2 isos at 4x burn speed.
My ps2 is a launch ps2, I don't need to worry about warranty.
It also does look pretty dusty inside but I don't know if dust is the problem, since it can reproduce almost everything just fine, except for some backups like I mentioned earlier

How old are the backups? Backups will eventually lose their effectiveness over time. Lower quality media is more prone to deteriorating over time.

Does the PS2 have problems with all your backups or just a few?

Mostly LG DVD-Rs, the backups that don't work are only a few, some quite aged, some new. They all load perfectly but at one point of the game, they stop loading

Hmmm, try switching to a different brand and see if that helps. I can recommend Verbatim, Taiyo Yuden, and Sony's.
