PS2: What can it do?


Recommended Posts

Hey all

My girlfriend is getting me a PS2 for Christmas. I am very happy, but wondered if it can do more than games?

Can I use it to play MP3s burned to a data cd? Or even to a data DVD?

Can I run emulators such as mame?

Do these require it to be modded in any way? If so, any suggestions?

Any feedback would be great.

Cheers

U know I love you all ;)

The PS2 will read CD-R's and DvD-R's. I have'nt tested out CD-RW's or DvD-RW's yet though. It won't read dvd+r's.

Dunno about emulators but you can get it modded to play import PS2 games.

Clerks is :woot:

Yea, most of those require your PS2 to be modded. Sony had a Linux kit with a keyboard, mouse, hard drive and stuff available a while aho, and if u combine that with a mod chip... ;)

PS2 does "NOT" need to be modded in anyway, unless playing backed up "GAMES"

Only the new PS2can play DVD+R/RW & DVD-R/RW's tho.

When teh PS2 HDD comes out, you will be able to play MP3's and more media.

Dont you just love the way the PS2 comes in lots of colours these days and then remember back to when the limited edition green xbox came out, all those fan boys saying "it doesnt look like a big black briefcase now, does it?" NO! :woot: it looks like a big green briefcase now! :woot: A little off topic but i just thought i would say something since he's getting a silver PS2 :) :drool:

with extra bits and pieces you can play DivX movies and MP3's on it, although it requires you to use your PC harddrive and what not. Check out www.brookfresh.co.uk
