I was just wondering, how I could backup my games and what is the difference of putting them on a blank dvd or blank cd. Also, is there anykind of adapters out there that you can hook up to the ps2 to play these burned games, external preferrably. Thanks, Steve

Firstly most PS2 games are on a DVD as the games will not fit onto a normal CDR. Secondly you would need either a mod chip or a disk such as Swap Magic 3 which enables you to swap disks after booting, you will need to remove the ps2 cover or get a flip lid cover.

Goodluck
