You can make a backup of your PS2 game (for legal purposes of course) to preserve your original game. ~ VersatileĦ-23-09: Re-release of a classic tutorial.Ģ-6-10: Removed the youtube link until I upload a new video. If you do this method, only do it if you own a retail version of the game.ĭownloading games that you do not legally own is illegal, and we want no part of that. We realize that sometimes games can be scratched, so making a digital backup is impossible and in lieu of buying the game again, you can download the PS2 game from a torrent. We support making backups of games that you own. It needs you, and you need it.Īs usual, The Undergound does not support or advocate piracy. By doing it over again, I hope to convey to you the awesomeness of the PS2, and if you are an owner of it, you need to give it more love than you think it deserves.
If your unit is V1-V3, it’s debatable whether or not you’ll EVER get your backups to work.Foreword: This is one of my favorite tutorials, and re-writing it from scratch is a lot of work. In that order.īear in mind that Sony has put the world’s SHITTIEST lasers in the PS2. There are rip-packs on the web which will allow you to burn it as two discs or one disc with some compressed video.Ĭan the PS2 read CD-RW, DVD-RW or DVD+RW? Gran Turismo 4 is the only one you’re likely to run into. Are there any dual layered games for the PS2 and if so how would you burn them? When burning DVD films it can be an arse because they can be dual layered. They SHOULD have just put it on a DVD, but they didn’t. It takes about 5 minutes to load because it decompresses everything. Most of the games from Nippon Ichi, for example (Disgaea, La Pucelle Tactics, Phantom Brave) compress nicely to 600MB or so, but are actually 2GB games! But yes, a LOT of PS2 games, to date, have been CD games. But oftentimes it’s a compressed DVD game. If the game is under 700MB for the most part it’s a CD game. Does this mean they are ripped or are a lot of PS2 games just CD games?Įither or. I’ve noticed on newsgroups and bittorrent that a lot of the games are less than 700mb. The important thing is giving the laser adequate time to make a good burn, but too slow is bad as well now. Nowadays? Just don’t do it at full speed. Back when burners were only 8x (CD), you needed to burn at 1x (CD) to get solid results with PSX games. And lastly, if your burner is better at burning +R, then by all means use +R.ĭoes it matter which speed I burn the games at?Įveryone will tell you it does, but it hasn’t in years. If your PS2 is an older model (V4 and under) then you NEED to use DVD-R, the drive is incapable of reading +R at all. In general yes, but it depends on your burner. I’ve heard that DVD-R discs are better than DVD+R discs for burning PS2 games onto.
