I'm trying to play my psx backups on my ps2 and I've read multiple accounts, and I'm hoping someone can set me straight. I have magic swap w/ magic key on a slimline ps2. I've read that with cloneCD or Alcohol 120%, you can boot it up normally, but I can't seem to get that to work (please insert a playstation or playstation 2 disc screen). I've read at the magic swap site that you need gameshark to boot psx games, since magic swap only recognizes ps2 game discs. I'm wondering if I need to go out and purchase gameshark, or if someone has a better solution for this. P.S. I can play all my ps2 backups fine, although many had to be rebuilt.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

are any better than others, or should i just get gameshark since it doubles as a boot-up and the cheat disc?

Its really ur choice. If u do use Gameshark or Action Reply, it has to be a ps1 veriosn NOT one for ps2 games. I would go with Breaker Pro, i have heard a lot of good things about it:)
