Hey, anyone know anything about these?
Which is the best one to buy?

I'm pretty handy with a soldering iron, for instance i just repaired my mates pioneer cd player last night.

I assume they let you run copied games? I can't see why they'd be illegal. It's your PS2, you can do what the hell you like to it.

Now having copied games, thats against the law. It's like a bong. You're allowed to sell them and own them, just not allowed to use them Smile

does anyone know where to get coppies of the Swap Magic boot loaders?

i've worked out if you remove the little cover bit of the dvd drive you can use a card (credit, license, etc.) to slide the drive open like with some of the 'special' tools out there but it's no real use unless you have the boot loaders.

why do all the best car games have to be japanese http://www.yukes.co.jp/d1-game/?

but modchips are illegal.

owning them isnt, installing them in the ps2 is.

and since they can only be used for the ps2, its stupid to say they arent illegal.

I'm about to do this too, although I think you need a modchip to run the boot cd for the HDD unless you have an original copy of the cd which I think would be zoned for ntsc anyway.....

Still researching but pretty sure thats right. i'll go check again.
