Different MOD CHIPS by Aftab

[devilsminion]

Hi guys,
I just found this site. Its really intresting and informative! as i'm new here so i just wanna ask some questions..(i'm sorry if these questions have been asked before)

1. Is there any topic/page where i can find the capacities of PS2 Games on Dvds??

2. Well i have Neo4 in my PS2. It sucks big time :( as i can't play some games which have more capacity than my orginal DVD...games like TimeSplitters 2 etc ! Plus DVD9 Copied games (XenoSaga)! So i recently saw these two mod-chips...Messiah2 and Magic 3.1 my PS2 model number no. is SCPH-30004 (PAL) so will Messiah2 or Magic 3.1 work on my PS2? well the web-sites say that they work on every PS2 model but when i went to modify my ps2 the shopkeeper told me that Messiah 1 was not compatible with my PS2 ! so he installed Neo 4 :(

3. Does the backup ver. of XenoSaga(DVD9) works? Messiah 2 and Magic 3.1 both play DVD9 games right??

4. Can i use my Action Replay 2 for codes with NEO4 ? (If Yes then how??)

5. Are there any X-box DVD9 games available? Which mod-chip can play X-box DVD9 games(backups)? I heard Star Wars KOTOR will be a DVD9 !!!

Thanks in advance ! :)

To find the disc size of PS2 games do a search for "table of Content", thats what the threads name was. I just tried it and it should work but the search function appears to be down, so you may just have to go back a ways in the threads to find it.

Either the Messiah 2 or the Magic 3.1 will work in your console, however, your neochip is probably destroying your laser. The Messiah is the better chip, but a little more pricey. If you have an older console it is recommended to sell it and get a newer one, because of your dying laser.

Backups of DVD9 games work perfect in Mesiah 2, Magic 3.1 still has some trouble with even the original DVD9.

Don't know about AR2 with Neo4

Somebody here might know about Xbox DVD9 but you are better asking in the Xbox forum.
