Samor Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 (edited) swapmagic is the cheapest, not the best. works for me though! a little more detailed: swapmagic requires a slidecard for the old ps2, or a fliptop-cover or 2 tiny pieces of plastic for your slimline ps2. I have the slimline ps2, and went for the two tiny pieces of plastic. Some reported it to not work, but it works for me. With swapmagic though, as the name implies, you need to swap discs everytime you boot a game.secondly, the ps2 is very picky on dvd-r brands. I'm told that with a modchip, compatibility with various dvd-r brands is much higher.Of course, imports work as well.

bogard81 Posted March 10, 2006 Author Share Posted March 10, 2006 MODBO 2.1 says a guy i meet last day that is good.What modchip have you guys? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shibathedog Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 I would personally just use swapmagic, if a game doesnt work for it, then there is always a patch, and you dont have to mod your console internally But if you really want a modchip i would get a DMS4 Magic chips are nice but are a pain to install.

Mooney Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 I'm not sure about PS2, but if you play on XBox Live with a modchip, it will detect it and you will get banned for life. That's why I'd use SwapMagic just to play it safe, it's not detectable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bogard81 Posted March 15, 2006 Author Share Posted March 15, 2006 How would i know it's not a clone?I'm talking about dms4 or modbo.and you are right about swap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prican25 Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 best mods out are dms4pro, matrix infinity and crystal mod. each have their own thing like dms4 has its own hd loader (great for older ps2's) and crystal mod can play backups online without needing to patch the game. swap magic is something not worth it unless you wanna wait for patches or get other loaders for it and doing a double swap. in the end after its chipped, being able to play 2 backups or so pretty much pays off the mod oh and for those of you wondering about online sake, dnas (online thing) doesn't detect mods, just looks for the its id except for the socom 2/3 sake which detects the file size which make it think you're cheating and kicks you out of their server (meaning you can forget about playing socom 2/3 backup online). all thats needed is a dnas patch adding the id and you're good to go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shibathedog Posted March 17, 2006 Share Posted March 17, 2006 yeah but i dont think that crystal mod's online feature will last forever, there will eventually be games that defeat that then again PS2 is nearing its end (kind of) so maybe not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
