I already have:

Think of it as a dumbed-down Counterstrike.
That's all it is.
(On a smaller screen. And using weird buttons to move.)

Heck, in CS at least there's the possibility of addons, eg. cameras, cannons, etc.
But in this... It's just badly rendered buildings with DREADFUL amounts of fog. You can hardly see anything more than about 10 metres in front of you.

In short, I hate it.

(Edit - And there's no command-macro's, so you either have to stop dead and use the menu (instead a quick X-1, or C-5), or wait until the voice line is free and use that (as per CS).)

I got mine done at Gold Coast Mod Chips.
Alternatively, you could buy the chip off the net (much cheaper that way), and install it yourself :)

slot-loading is bad... but if someone can hack the PSX it sounds pretty powerful...
i think epsxe is the best psx emulator around but had to find the bios and plugins separately. :(

Emulators for what? They exist for PC but they arent stable and dont cover all games. I know a few exist to install on your Xbox to enable you to play PS2 games, but they are similarly limited.

on the slim ps2's the laser is kinda weak and burns out easily. So if you use cheap media (like princo), it creates more work for the laser and hence it'll burn out quicker. If your using el-cheapo media ... the laser has a higher chance of burning out. I say spend the extra 10 buckz and get some good dvd blanks (ritek g04 seem to be the best)

im not running ps2 slimline atm :)

all my games are tested and run on ps2 ver 3 - 5

even if the slimline laser dies out eventually should be still covered under warranty, thats what the mod is made for

but i guess ur right with the dvd-rw, ill take a look into it, thanks for the tip
