This is due to several bizarre expectations the game has with disc drive timings and the game exploiting that fact too much for PCSX2. This seems to depend heavily on the version, however, as some users have reported softlocks while I only encountered a hang of around 10 seconds (1.6.0, NTSC-U Greatest Hits version). | ||
