PS2 Backups and Swap Discs - Club CDFreaks

Cburkdog · 25-09-2003

I'm starting to backup my PS2 games, and am debating on whether to get an actual mod chip or go with a Swap Disc. From what I've read, mod chips work well, but does anybody know about Swap Discs and their compatibility?

By the way- this is a great forum. I haven't been here too long and am just starting to realize how much i don't know.

From what I have heard, Mod chips work the best.
Swap discs are not that reliable...

Hope this helps
