Hey guys! I was downloading a PS2 game torrent when it stopped at 98.8%. It doesn't download any further than that. Should I go ahead and still burn it to disc? Will it still play?

I doubt it would work. You are almost done downloading it. Just wait a little bit longer.

I know, but it;s been days now. I doubt the downloading will finish. I think it's done to be honest with you.

some torrent downloads will stop at -% and stay there, usually mid 90s. First of all, before you do anything I would look in the torrent client to see how many % each individual file is, it could just be a readme that's stuck at 85, holding up the torrent, if the iso is 100% then you're good to go. If that isn't the case do a "force recheck" of the torrent.
It may also be that nobody has the "pieces" of the torrent that make up the remaining two percent, check availability to make sure. Or it's a bad seed in which case grab another torrent.

hi Alias, thanks for the reply buddy! I did as you asked and there aren't individual 'pieces'. It's just one .iso file. So, I can't tell for sure if it's done 100%. It's probably a gamble to end whatever hope of finishing it and then burn it, in my opinion. Let me know what you think. Thanks!
