I just downloaded prince of persia two thrones for the ps2:

1. I unrar open archive.
2. I notice bin. and cue files.
3. the names were not matching for the cue and bin files to work properly.
4. I opened the cue file and renamed it than saved it. (so finally the cue could locate the bin and open it.)I used daemon tools to mount it.
5. It opens up fine with a list of files that appear to look ok.
6. I burn the files to a DVD using Nero or DVD Decryptor.
7. I used swap magic (load prompt)
8. I get a message not a ps2 disc.

NOTE: I also tried to convert the bin to ISO and burned it but still got the same message not a ps2 disc.

Usually, when I have downloaded Solop files in the past I got rar files and unrared them and then got a nice ISO file and then used decryptor to make the DVD and it plays fine using swap magic.. but, this time I got bin and cue files.. very strange.. if anyone knows how to proceed with these files or has got them to work properly please let me know.. Here's the file I'm talking about: [www.solops2.com]_prince_of_persia_two_thrones-PS2_DVDrip_ntsc.rar.torrent

That's strange. Bin and cue files usually refer to CD-ROM images. How big is the bin file? POP: Two Thrones is definitely a DVD-ROM game.

It sounds like somebody downsized the iso to fit on a CD-ROM. Still, that would only fit on 90 min/800 MB CD-ROM. You can only really get them online, and your burner has to support overburning of CD-R's. The short answer is find another torrent that isn't downsized to CD. Most rared iso files are between 2-4GB's. So if a game seems suspiciously small, something is awry.

Yeah, that's kinda what I thought .. thanks for shedding some light on this issue. I really appreciate it. I could try the overburn thing but I don't want to risk it. So, I guess I will just look for another file that contains an ISO file.
