Ps2 modchips anyplace in perth...?

[MrGTST]

I wouldnt be too worried about naming names as the Mod Stop is listed in the phone directory, have a legitimate shop with very obvious signage and all they do is mod playstations.... I would guess they rely largely on word of mouth and having a good reputation.... If they were worried about breaking the law they wouldnt have a shop on a main road???

ok heres the deal:

Buy yourself a ps2 network adaptor soon (rumors going around that sony has stop producing them)

Next buy HD-loader or HD-Loader Advance ($60 for advance getting this cod to me sometime next week)

So don't need the slide-tool for this method?

I have a V9 (SCPH-50002) console, will the hd loader etc work with mine?

Just got mine mod'ed last week with a DUO 2. Cost $90 by a guy on Scarb Rd next to the Ampol station (Opposite Innaloo shopping centre).

Just wondering if you do decide to go with the SWAP card, make sure that you don't have TOC problem. I had one of those old swap mod, that caused me a lot of grief. The DUO2 can do basically everything, DVD-R, DVD5, DVD9 silver, CDR, Region free DVD etc ... Also can run Media player as well.

hey simplelogik, im just loading games onto a hard-drive putting that into my ps2 and playing them that way

[simplelogik]

I can't really see the point of storing games on HDD ?? The only benefit I can see is access speed. Personally, I'll save the extra money and put up with the extra few seconds for games to load.

[Kaido_RR]

simplelogik,

If u download games it becomes much easier no need for blank cds anymore and when renting games you can just drop it to ur hd

[simplelogik]

Downloading games !! Are you crazy !?? Are they DVD5 or CDR size ?? I can't see you download DVD5 too often ..

Lets face it how many of us download DVD games!!?? I think at 56K it'll take me serveral years for one game .. Might as well, just rent it out and burn it on DVD-R. I can get 20 DVD-R for $11, that's 55cents per DVD-R. Much cheaper than storing it on HDD.

What's your quota then ?? Are they DVD or recompressed CD size games ?? As I said before, I can't imagine anyone downloading DVD size games ?? Perhaps I'm wrong ??

[Kaido_RR]

simplelogik most of the games are rip, or only work out to about 2gigs

DVD rips are from 500meg and up to 3 gig. So you can download a game over night or over a few days
