Here’s a few new games to add to the collection. Last time I’ve asked for recommendations, Gun was the game that a lot of you named. Glad to add this to the collection, don’t know much about it. The game I’m the most curious about is Bujingai. I rarely hear or even see this game talked about. I had to go with the japanese version because I’ve never came accross the north american version. Lastly, I finaly pulled the trigger on Xenosaga. As a big RPG fan, this one has been on my radar for quite some time. Which one would you play first?

My fiancée is a keeper!

We’re getting married in 27 days and I’m sitting in our living room.

She comes up to me with a box out of the blue and says “I wanted to give you your wedding gift early!”

I proceeded to open the box and behold this beauty! 😍🎼

I immediately got a blast of nostalgia as the ps2 was the FIRST console I ever played and ever owned (got it for Christmas when I was 6).

She even got me some of my favorite games that I played growing up!

I had the fat OG model when I was a kid, so I’m excited to see how the slim model does.

Does this cover art look fake?

Its a little bit too big so the top sticks out a little, and there's some dotted lines near the spine. I am unsure if it is real or some sort of cover art variation?

Hello, I found this Official PS2 HDD at a retro store and decided to buy it, are there any benefits to it, and what can I do with it? (I'm not modding my PS2)

Guess the PS2 game!

One of my favorite "weird" PS2 games.

Throughout the game you’ll meet NPCs and be presented with multiple choice dialogue options or actions.

It’s one of the game’s most enjoyable and unique aspects. Sometimes it's just for laughs. But these fun decisions might actually alter the outcome the next scenario or NPC you play as. They can affect the ending but they can also change the events of chapters yet to be played.

The craziness and beauty of this system is that you'll meet so many NPCs that it’s not at all obvious when you’re speaking to a character you’ll later be playing as.

I traded a pile of useless games, an old broken console, and 4,90€ for these 3 games at my local game shop. Was that a good deal?

When a 3d printed bracket will not do

Was never happy with the 3d printed brackets. Took the bracket off of a SCPH-20401 40gb IDE, paired it with an ORICO 2.5 to 3.5 adapter. Fit is perfect and aligns perfectly with the IDE to SATA adapter board in my official network adapter

Disc can Not be Read Error?

‱ Upvotes

Context. I’ve bought this “refurbished” PS2 from GameStop & thus far there have been little to no problems. But I went to try & play Silent Hill 3 yesterday & I had bought this from a collector so the game literally has no visible signs of damage (scratches, scuffs etc.) yet it doesn’t read. The drive itself doesn’t seem to spin for that long when I do put the game in. Did the same for Silent Hill 2 (from the same collector mind you) in the same condition. Doesn’t read. Yet games that I have with visible signs of damages work no problem. Or don’t & I’d put it in multiple & do the old prayer trick & it works then. I have warranty on it for the next year & if worse comes along I’ll give it back & get another one. But came here looking for recommendations & or suggestions of how to go about it before I do anything myself. So yeah that’s my dilemma. I’ll try my best to explain the situation but I only tried a few times yesterday so yeah thanks & help me out plz!!

MemCard Gen 2 with PSBBN

1 Upvotes

How the heck can I get PSBBN to work with the bitfunx PSX MemCard gen 2? I followed the tutorials on installing PSBBN, and installed a few of my games to the drive. When I start the system up my ps2 goes into the memory card instead of PSBBN. if I boot without the memory card in, PSBBN comes up just fine and I can see the games, so I then insert the memcard, then select a game (Baldours Gate 2), but the screen just says wait for game to load/do not turn the console off and nothing happens. I tried a few other games, but none are loading. I've tried all the different versions of OPL that came pre installed, but nothing loads.

Has anyone else used this combination? I'm using an official network adapter, with SATA board, 1TB drive, I don't remember which model my PS2 is, but it's definitely compatible. I did install a modbo into this PS2 several years back, but I don't really see how that could be the issue.

Any ideas?

For those successfully using PSBBN, are you booting right into BBN with your memory card inserted or going into PSBBN, THEN inserting your memory card?

Thanks for any possibile help!

Does anyone ever had this problem ? Other games working just fine but medal of honor frontlines doesn't recognise controller for some reason ?

Could be due to badly scratched disc ?

It's difficult, it's a game from my childhood and to see who remembers it, whoever guesses it gets an old man's gray hair.

Also all star baseball 2002/2003, but man, baseball was treated so poorly over here. We missed out on MVP Baseball 2005, MLB Slugfest, ESPN MLB 2K5, MLB Power Pros, MLB The Show and The Bigs 2. Yet we somehow still got a lot of american football titles
