Mine does the same, during play the fan will go high and stay high.  I tryed putting a fan around the back to cool it down but it was the same, maybe if I boot up the ps2 with the fan on?

My has randomly become VERY loud on 3 occasions, I called Sony and they said as long as the game is not affected it's not a fault and not to worry.

I guess it's just a safety measure if the console 'thinks' it's getting hot inside itself.  I moved mine away from my Dolby amplifier as that thing is like a radiator!
