invest in some DVD RW's to start. so you don't get any more coasters. if you have a fairly new PS2 it should play anything including RW's. and as viper stated ..more info mate ..

Hey there Grunt14, well start with this

1.is your PS2 chipped
2.you can't use shrink to backup PS2 games, you need Nero or DVD Decrypter for that.
3.what version is your PS2 (some version's won't play certain format's of +r or rw's) like earlier version's

I play backed up movies all the time on my PS2 so what else is it doing. Are you getting a "disc read error"
