I hope I'll be forgiven for asking such basic questions, but I have to start somewhere.

I have a ps2 (unmodified and want to burn some games. What options are available for ps2 that allow copied games to be played. The kids are pretty hard on the originals, so I want to put them away and play the copies instead. I'd prefer to use a software based solution, as soldering is not my forte. I've heard of swap magic but am not sure what all this involves, prices, sources, etc. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Swap Magic 3.6 will be your best bet. Here is a link to help decide where you want to get it: http://www.swapmagic3.com/Swap_Magic_Where_To_Buy.asp

You will also need a slide tool for the fat PS2 or magic keys/magic switch for a slimline. You can get these in a package with the Swap Magic discs. The price is usually around $30, but it is well worth it.

Hope this helps!
