I have a question. Can you actually burn a PS2 game to your hard drive then to a DVDR and then play it on the PS2 console?

I have a game that I bought for my son that is not compatible to my console. They say that console does not play games that say "Compact Disk" on the back of the game. Can I burn that onto a DVD and play it?

not without modification to your PS2
It is very simple and would cost about $40-$50
total for everything you need. Then you could burn games
and play them. What type of PS2 do you have. The slim one
or the older chunky style?
For either one you could get an aftermarket flip top
and a set of Swap Magic discs.

The compact discs should play. They are CD based games so you
would burn them to a CD not a DVD
a DVD based game would have the DVD symbol on the case.
