i bought god of war and beat it quick, then i copied it and tried to boot it up, my slimline ps2 with swap magic 3.3 wouldn't boot it. but my roomate had a modchip in his slimline which played the game fine, but when i tried to load my data and play thru with the blades of athena or whatever weapon you get after your curse is lifted and it won't load, it will go to the loading screen and poop out. has anyone had the problem of data from an original game not working with the copy? and would a toc disc type disc help to load it on my ps2?
i thought it only needed fixed if you were trying to shrink it to a single layer disc. actually, its not the disc quality though, my ps2 won't play it because i can't get my ps2 to play dual layer disc. my buddy's ps2 is moded and plays the game fine, but it still won't let me use my save file, it goes to load and freezes on the loading screen. its weird
I've got the same porblem it will say reading for like three blinks and crap out well. I have the Launch day PS2 and I just pop open the lid and push the lens all the way back to the spinner but then I get a disk read error after 22 blinks and this is a brand new God Of War.
If any one can help I would appreciate it.
swap magic wont boot dual layer discs so it will need rebuildin to dvd5, but sum chips will read dual layer.
is ur friends ps2 the same region as urs, eg are they both pal consoles or both ntsc, ive noticed if i have a save of a ntsc game then try loadin it up with a pal copy with no joy
they're all the same, only thing that is different is his has a modchip and mine doesn't, that is why my ps2 won't play the game, but his will play the same copy, it just won't let me use my memory save on his game, i'm not worried about it anymore, i haven't touched my ps2 since i've gotten a 360
