PS2 games are actually pressed DVD/CD discs, they are not burned. PS2 games use the Burst Cutting Area (BCA) of the disc to identify themselves to the PS2 unit. The BCA is not part of a disc that you can burn on, it is only replicated on pressed discs.

So, the only way to play backups is to get boot-discs or a mod-chip.

Before you waste dvd's you MUST have a modchip or swapmagic disks with a tool to open the tray.

You can find out more here: http://www.swapmagic3.com

Here is my ps2 with a flip-top kit I installed and I use swap magic to play backup games.
