    I don't come here that often, but when I do, I see a lot of the same questions being asked. It's kind of like Tech support. I'm starting that in a little bit at Best Buy.

    lol I remember one of the questions here being something like, "I want to burn a PS2 game, but I have one question. Do I really need a DVD burner? Where would that come into play?" OH NO! You don't need the DVD burner at all. You're only trying to BURN THE FREAKIN' DVD!

    When you tell people to read in sort of a rude manner and they're really new at this stuff and want to know how to do it, it kind of turns them off and makes them upset. I can understand telling them in a nice way, but if they sound totally new, don't snap at them because it's not helping anything. That's rule number... um.. I don't know what number it is, but I know it's one of the numbers in helping people with technology issues.
    Plus, it doesn't help that you tell them to read the thread and it's like 118 pages long. But in reality, I'm sure that when the read from page 1, they'll probably find their answer on about page 5 or so.

    Oh, by the way, Josh. Can you send me the link to where you were reading about the PSP homebrew stuff. I'm interested in what that is. Thanks.

    Has anyone had a chance to figure out how to make a copy or how to burn the Scareface game for the PS2 yet? If anyone has PLEASE let me know because right now, when I'm trying to make it work with the Swap Magic technique it's not working :*( Please let me know and I surely will appreciate it.

    2IIPack, edit your sig to conform to forum specs ASAP.
    2. An image-only signature should be less than 50kb in size, and be at most 500 pixels wide and 200 pixels tall.
    4. If you want to use both text and image in your signature the image should not be more than 500 pixels wide and 100 pixels tall, and you can use up to three lines of text.

    Hey guys I'm new a new member but I have been reading everyone's posts and I get everything but I have a problem with something.
    So I burnt DBZ Budokai Tenkaichi 2 to my HDD and so I used DVD Decrypter
    and did the read then write at 4x speed on a DVD-R Memorex 16x. I put swap magic in the PS2 and load it all up. at the part where it says load program and video mode I put my backup copy into the drive and click X on the controller, It says not a valid PS2 disk.

    Please someone help me out I've been reading so many posts and pages but I still don't know what I'm doing wrong.

    @2IIPack

    You are making very little sense, im over it

    @MrBeefy1

    Only thing that is apparent by your post is you using 16x memorex DVD's/. Not only do [bold]GOOD[/bold] 16x DVD's give some peeps problems, using such sh!t as Memorex 16x isnt a great idea. Get some better media

    And what do you mean "burnt" to your HDD????? Do you mean ripped??? Burning is what you do when you put an image on a disk, ripping is what you do when you take an image off a disk and put in on your hard drive.

    sounds like something is corrupt, or your laser is going, you might want a new copy of dvd decrypter but i dont think that is it, it sounds more like you drive is sticking if it is burning the disc itself

    i would really appreicate it if someone could please help me out with my problems...


    A month ago, i bought a modded ps2. the version is the SPCH-30004 one.

    It plays original games fine, and it used to play burned games (blue bottom) no problem when i first played them. now, it still plays original silver discs ok, but it has trouble with my blue burned copies-- it just stays at the browser screen, i guess trying to load up the game.

    i'm using Taiyo yuden, DVD+R (i think my ps2 prefers DVD+R), and i know these games work, bcause they used to. i know, i follow the old DVD Decrypter, iso read iso write, or if i need to, unrar the files and then burn the iso from there. dont worry, i understand how to make the disc.

    now these blue games sometimes work, sometimes not. i get stuck at the browser screen and the ps2 keeps trying to read the disc, but it cant. when the blue disc game does load though, it plays no problem, no hiccups or glitches at all. can anyone please give me some tips. should i try the method described on the first page of this thread? is it the laser thats dying? please save my ps2! if theres something else you need to know, please let me know :) thanks!!!

    Try opening your ps2 and cleaning the laser with a q-tip and some rubbing alcohol. If that doesnt work, the laser might be going dead on you :(

    EDIT

    MrBeefy

    The best of the best are Taiyo Yuden 8x DVD-R (TYG02). These disks have never let me down. Burn at 4x for best results. The best place to get these disks is http://www.supermediastore.com

    I have also bought the value line Taiyo's, they work awesome for me aswell. Only thing is that you might recieve TYG03, which is 16x....same level of quality, just some people say that their ps2's dont like 16x media :)
