No.... You don't HAVE TO HAVE ONE!
You can always shove a knife into your ps2 and boot that way.:confused:

Not a very good idea, unless you would like to have a nice PAPERWEIGHT....

BUY A MOD CHIP!!!!!!:cool:

Nem2k 02-09-2002 08:57

how much are they?

That all depends......
What chip do you want?
What version PS2 do you have?
Can you do the install or will you have to pay someone to do it?
Do you want to have to "Swap" to play backups or do you want a "Direct Boot" chip......???

Do a little research and you should be able to find the answers too all of your questions.....:cool:

what i dnt get is this boot stuff

Explain exactly what you don't understand and i'll see if I can sort out your questions for you...:cool:

Nem2k 02-09-2002 10:36

whats the difference between swap and direct boot?

It's Self Explanitory..You need to swap for Ps2 games and other requires no swap..Just pop the game in and it plays..

Nem2k 02-09-2002 10:55

swap what?

A03 02-09-2002 10:59

It depends on what game you want to play with what chip you got..
For Example: Let's say you got Neo2.5 modchip..With this you need to use certain version of Gameshark2 disc and then load the backup game of your choice..For DVD-R games you need to double swap..
With a non swap chip like Magic2 you do not need to swap at all just insert the game in and hit reset..

Nem2k 02-09-2002 11:02

so no swap is better, and most likely more expensive?

A03 02-09-2002 11:05

You put 1 and 1 together..That's obvious answer..But it's well worth..It seems like a lot but in the long run you'll be glad you did..

Nem2k 02-09-2002 11:09

so how much wud the best direct boot chip cost and where can i get it from?

BG 02-09-2002 11:21

You can buy the Messiah and other chips at Lan-Kwei.com ... Or, since you are in the UK... Contact Charlie_PS2..... He can supply the chip and the installation if you want....:cool:

Also, since you are new at this..... You need to make sure EXACTLY what version PS2 you have since you need to know this BEFORE purchasing one....
