PS1/2 v5 PS2

[sonic209]

alright well i have a v5 ps2 and today i burned a dvd movie i tried playing it on my dvd player but it couldnt read dvd+rw so i try it on my ps2 and i was surprised it actually worked so now that i know the movies work i was wonder could it read dvd+rw games

It may do , depends on the game. Something that's constantly streaming from disc like the GTA games might not work to well. I wouldn't advise using dvd+/-rw discs though , unless you want the laser to die prematurely.

Hate to say the obvious but, you do have it modded right?

Backup movies work on ANY PS2, Games on the other hand DO NOT.
Unless you use a swap disc or a modchip.

That is all
\o

i checked with mine: videos work fine on dvd+-rw

but no games, sorry.

but you could test it with yours nontheless.

 

[sonic209]

well it seems more votes goes to no and i guess i rather not waste my time downloading and burning

Why would you even ask if they would work if you didn't have some sort of mod

. If you ask about playing copied games on X media, assumption would be you have some way to boot em.

i guess his console is modded and he is asking about gameplayback from rewriteable media, correct?

That's what I guessed , but from his reply of not wasting time downloading and burning , it would seem he does not.

its not modded but im gonna get my swapmagic like in a week or so
and can anybody tell me if this is swapmagic v3.3 or v3.6 http://www.keepgaming.com/ps2/NXP2R-008.htm it says it v3.6 but it shows images of v3.3

My guess is the site wouldn't lie. If it says 3.6, it's probably 3.6

Just wondering, why do you want to use dvd+rw so much?

I'd assume you just want to try out if something works without losing a dvd. Still, these days $20 gets you a pack of like 50 dvd-r's, which are pretty much guaranteed to work on any ps2 out there, as well as putting less stress on the ps2 laser.
