How To Copy PS2 Discs?

DVD burners have made it possible to make a copy of all PS2 games like Final Fantasy and Grand Theft Auto. PS2 makes use of the DVD-5 format to create the games. Every PS2 game is actually a DVD. Though it is possible to burn the games onto a CD-R, a CD-R is not big enough to hold an entire PS2 game. Of course, there are compression utilities that can manage to compress the game into a size which is readable on a CD-R, but it may prove to be tough to utilise this for back-up purposes. It is a better move to burn your games onto a DVD.

To burn your PS2 games onto a DVD-R or DVD-RW, you need appropriate software. One of the best of the lot is DVD Wizard Pro. This is an exceptional utility with brilliant DVD burning features, plus it also has a special interface for the burning of console game discs such as PS2, among others. This software will allow you to have a backup all of your PS2 games. The manufacturers of PS2 are smart enough to guard themselves against video game piracy. So, there are chances that your burned games may not work on your machine. In order to get around this issue, and play the game from the disc, that you copied, you will have to install the "mod chip." This is the chip that is actually built into the hardware of your PS2 console. If you install this on your machine, you will be able to play your PS2 backup discs.
