Is there a way to softmod a PS2 like an Xbox? I haven't researched this much, so I just thought I'd ask.

I looked and everything had to do with the swap disks. Is there a way to actually mod the bios and OS of a PS2?

Probably not. all i can find myself is Swap disks with Magic Switch.. does that work? I tried once, the switches didnt work, probably have to practice putting it in the right place.

@SpAz328...there isn't a way to change the bios(without a mod-chip)...but try the link i provided earlier and you will be able to play backed up games(for your ps2)...using your memory card and a ps1 game...holla ;)

hmm whats the point of this? I dont get it.

You have to use swap magic anyways... and all this does is load a backup with more steps?

Whats the benefits of this... sounds like more work.
