you have to spend the money to get one of the top three modchips (matrix infinity greendot, dms4, crystal chip 2.0). you can use a hdd, but if you have a slim ps2, you're stuck with a usb hdd, and they're slow due to the ps2 usb1.1 connection.

fat ps2 needs a network adapter and a IDE hdd.

as for launching the games, you'd need a hdloader (fat) or usbadvanced(slim) elf, which can be found at sksapps.com.
