+Dick Montage Subscriber² Posted October 23, 2003 Subscriber² Share Posted October 23, 2003 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 ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReAnimation Posted October 23, 2003 Share Posted October 23, 2003 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psychoge3k Posted October 23, 2003 Share Posted October 23, 2003 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... ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Galley Posted October 23, 2003 Share Posted October 23, 2003 Make sure she gets the new 50001-series model, which has many new improvements. The box has a yellow "+" sign in the lower-right corner of the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liquid Posted October 23, 2003 Share Posted October 23, 2003 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tRr Posted October 23, 2003 Share Posted October 23, 2003 You can play DVD+R on some series of older PS2's and not just the new 50001. I know because my friend does it :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrunknMunky Veteran Posted October 23, 2003 Veteran Share Posted October 23, 2003 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: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dt26 Posted October 23, 2003 Share Posted October 23, 2003 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
