Let me guess. You have your PS2 hooked up to your TV from a VCR or VCR/TV combo? I have the latter, and any dvd player does that brightness fade that you're describing, not just the PS2. Hope that helps.

I'll help you out... You're experiencing Macrovision!! Talk about a great experience... Honest, if you want to play DVD without this problem, plug the PS2 right in the TV. If you want to go through a VCR to dub, you'll have to get a descrambler box.
