Another vote for Matt (and the DMS3 as well). The DMS3 does a lot of thing that are pretty useful NOW, and could be very useful in the future. And since I onlyy want to do it once, might as well future-proof it.

For me the ability to burn .avi images on a disc and watch them on the PS2 (through the Media Player app) was a major selling point. I've heard the compatible Genesis emu runs well, but I'm not sure if that's anything specific to DMS3. Haven't had the time to try it out myself. The fact that you can flash it through a CD for future features/updates is also really neat.
I can vouch for the SNES emu working great as well, but i'm pretty sure emus have nothing to do with your chip.Quote:

Mmk, the "compatible." That could even be derogatory/limiting in that emus have to work properly with/on it. I'm not pushing anything, just trying to inform them. Modchip animosity can be such an ugly thing. Let's have none of it, eh?
Anyone know of any places in Florida that mods PS2?
what part of florida?
Bah! You don't owe him an explanation. Just show him that "STFU! Newbie" picture and tell him to shove it.Quote:

Only thing is I have to hold the power button for a sec when I turn it on then quickly tap it twice in order to load any PS1 game (original or backup), PS2 game (backups only) or DVD (original or DVD-R), but with regular PS2 games I just pop them in and they run from simply turning on the console as normal. Anyone know what chip it is exactly, based on that description?
Oh, and "Swap" or "flip-top" method mods are AWFUL. Not worth your money, and they often end up just ruining your PS2.
You can get a modded universal PS2 from www.toysnjoys.com for $259 + shipping. That's the best deal I've found on the net for a new modded system, they're usually $300+ at most places. I'm not sure what chip they use, but you could just email and ask.
Northwest, near Pensacola.Quote:
